But Laban said to him,

“If now it pleases you, stay with me;

I have divined that the Lord has blessed me on your account.”

He continued, “Name me your wages, and I will give it.

But he said to him,

“You yourself know how I have served you and how your cattle have fared with me.

 For you had little before I came and it has increased to a multitude,

 and the Lord has blessed you wherever I turned.

          But now, when shall I provide for my own household also?” Genesis 30:27-30

So he said, “What shall I give you?”

          And Jacob said, “You shall not give me anything.

If you will do this one thing for me, I will again pasture and keep your flock:

let me pass through your entire flock today,

removing from there every speckled and spotted sheep

and every black one among the lambs and the spotted and speckled among the goats;

and such shall be my wages.

So my honesty will answer for me later when you come concerning my wages.

Every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats and black among the lambs, if found with me, will be considered stolen.”

Laban said, “Good, let it be according to your word.” Genesis 30:31-34

So he removed on that day the striped and spotted male goats

and all the speckled and spotted female goats,

every one with white in it, and all the black ones among the sheep,

and gave them into the care of his sons.

And he put a distance of three days’ journey between himself and Jacob,

and Jacob fed the rest of Laban’s flocks. Genesis 30:35-36

Now Jacob heard the words of Laban’s sons, saying,

“Jacob has taken away all that was our father’s, and from what belonged to our father he has made all this wealth.”

 Jacob saw the attitude of Laban, and behold, it was not friendly toward him as formerly.

Then the Lord said to Jacob,

“Return to the land of your fathers and to your relatives, and I will be with you.” Genesis 31:1-3

So Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to his flock in the field, and said to them,

“I see your father’s attitude, that it is not friendly toward me as formerly

          but the God of my father has been with me.

You know that I have served your father with all my strength.

Yet your father has cheated me and changed my wages ten times;

however, God did not allow him to hurt me. Genesis 31:4-7

          If he spoke thus,

"The speckled shall be your wages,’ then all the flock brought forth speckled;

 and if he spoke thus,

‘The striped shall be your wages,’ then all the flock brought forth striped.

Thus God has taken away your father’s livestock and given them to me.

And it came about at the time when the flock were mating that I lifted up my eyes and saw in a dream,

and behold, the male goats which were mating were striped, speckled, and mottled.

Then the angel of God said to me in the dream,

‘Jacob,’ and I said, ‘Here I am.’

He said, ‘Lift up now your eyes and see that all the male goats which are mating are striped, speckled, and mottled;

for I have seen all that Laban has been doing to you.

I am the God of Bethel, where you anointed a pillar, where you made a vow to Me;

now arise, leave this land, and return to the land of your birth.’”

Genesis 31:8-13

Rachel and Leah said to him,

“Do we still have any portion or inheritance in our father’s house?

  Are we not reckoned by him as foreigners?

  For he has sold us, and has also entirely consumed our purchase price.

  Surely all the wealth which God has taken away from our father belongs to us and our children;

  now then, do whatever God has said to you.” Genesis 31:-14-16

'Then Jacob rose up, 
.. and set his sons and his wives upon camels;
.... And he carried away all his cattle, 
...... and all his goods which he had gotten, 
........ the cattle of his getting, 
.......... which he had gotten in Padanaram, 
for to go to Isaac his father 
.. in the land of Canaan.'

(Genesis 31:17-18) 

Praise God!
