But Leah replied, “Is it not enough that you have taken away my husband? Now you want to take my son’s mandrakes as well?” “Very well,” said Rachel, “he may sleep with you tonight in exchange for your son’s mandrakes.”
Read word by word“God has given me a good gift,” she said. “This time my husband will honor me, because I have borne him six sons.” And she named him Zebulun.
Read word by wordAfter that, Leah gave birth to a daughter and named her Dinah.
Read word by wordThen God remembered Rachel. He listened to her and opened her womb,
Read word by wordand she conceived and gave birth to a son. “God has taken away my shame,” she said.
Read word by wordShe named him Joseph, and said, “May the LORD add to me another son.”
Read word by wordNow after Rachel had given birth to Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, “Send me on my way so I can return to my homeland.
Read word by wordGive me my wives and children for whom I have served you, that I may go on my way. You know how hard I have worked for you.”
Read word by wordThen Jacob answered, “You know how I have served you and how your livestock have thrived under my care.
Read word by wordIndeed, you had very little before my arrival, but now your wealth has increased many times over. The LORD has blessed you wherever I set foot. But now, when may I also provide for my own household?”
Read word by wordThat very day Laban removed all the streaked or spotted male goats and every speckled or spotted female goat—every one that had any white on it—and every dark-colored lamb, and he placed them under the care of his sons.
Read word by wordThen he put a three-day journey between himself and Jacob, while Jacob was shepherding the rest of Laban’s flocks.
Read word by wordThen he set the peeled branches in the watering troughs in front of the flocks coming in to drink. So when the flocks were in heat and came to drink,
Read word by wordWhenever the stronger females of the flock were in heat, Jacob would place the branches in the troughs, in full view of the animals, so that they would breed in front of the branches.
Read word by wordNow Jacob heard that Laban’s sons were saying, “Jacob has taken away all that belonged to our father and built all this wealth at our father’s expense.”
Read word by wordAnd Jacob saw from the countenance of Laban that his attitude toward him had changed.
Read word by wordand he told them, “I can see from your father’s countenance that his attitude toward me has changed; but the God of my father has been with me.
Read word by wordYou know that I have served your father with all my strength.
Read word by wordAnd although he has cheated me and changed my wages ten times, God has not allowed him to harm me.
Read word by wordThus God has taken away your father’s livestock and given them to me.
Read word by word‘Look up,’ he said, ‘and see that all the males that are mating with the flock are streaked, spotted, or speckled; for I have seen all that Laban has done to you.
Read word by wordAre we not regarded by him as outsiders? Not only has he sold us, but he has certainly squandered what was paid for us.
Read word by wordThen Jacob got up and put his children and his wives on camels,
Read word by wordand he drove all his livestock before him, along with all the possessions he had acquired in Paddan-aram, to go to his father Isaac in the land in Canaan.
Read word by wordNow while Laban was out shearing his sheep, Rachel stole her father’s household idols.
Read word by wordMoreover, Jacob deceived Laban the Aramean by not telling him that he was running away.
Read word by wordSo he fled with all his possessions, crossed the Euphrates, and headed for the hill country of Gilead.
Read word by wordSo he took his relatives with him, pursued Jacob for seven days, and overtook him in the hill country of Gilead.
Read word by wordNow Jacob had pitched his tent in the hill country of Gilead when Laban overtook him, and Laban and his relatives camped there as well.
Read word by wordThen Laban said to Jacob, “What have you done? You have deceived me and carried off my daughters like captives of war!
Read word by wordWhy did you run away secretly and deceive me, without even telling me? I would have sent you away with joy and singing, with tambourines and harps.
Read word by wordNow you have gone off because you long for your father’s house. But why have you stolen my gods?”
Read word by word“I was afraid,” Jacob answered, “for I thought you would take your daughters from me by force.
Read word by wordIf you find your gods with anyone here, he shall not live! In the presence of our relatives, see for yourself if anything is yours, and take it back.” For Jacob did not know that Rachel had stolen the idols.
Read word by wordNow Rachel had taken Laban’s household idols, put them in the saddlebag of her camel, and was sitting on them. And Laban searched everything in the tent but found nothing.
Read word by wordRachel said to her father, “Sir, do not be angry that I cannot stand up before you; for I am having my period.” So Laban searched but could not find the household idols.
Read word by wordYou have searched all my goods! Have you found anything that belongs to you? Put it here before my brothers and yours, that they may judge between the two of us.
Read word by wordThus for twenty years I have served in your household—fourteen years for your two daughters and six years for your flocks—and you have changed my wages ten times!
Read word by wordIf the God of my father, the God of Abraham and the Fear of Isaac, had not been with me, surely by now you would have sent me away empty-handed. But God has seen my affliction and the toil of my hands, and last night He rendered judgment.”
Read word by wordIf you mistreat my daughters or take other wives, although no one is with us, remember that God is a witness between you and me.”
Read word by wordThis mound is a witness, and this pillar is a witness, that I will not go past this mound to harm you, and you will not go past this mound and pillar to harm me.
Read word by wordEarly the next morning, Laban got up and kissed his grandchildren and daughters and blessed them. Then he left to return home.
