    25After Rachel gave birth to Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, 'Send me on my way so I can go back to my homeland.'

    26‘Give me my wives and children, for whom I have served you, so that I may go. You know how hard I have worked for you.’

    27But Laban said to him, 'If I have found favor in your eyes, please stay. I have learned by experience that the LORD has blessed me because of you.'

    28He continued, 'Name your wages, and I will pay them.'

    29Jacob said to him, 'You know how I have worked for you and how your livestock has fared under my care.'

    30For you had little before I came, but now it has increased greatly. The LORD has blessed you wherever I have been. But now, when can I provide for my own household?

    31Laban asked, 'What shall I give you?' Jacob replied, 'You shall give me nothing. If you do this one thing for me, I will continue to tend and watch over your flock.'

    32Let me pass through all your flocks today and remove every speckled or spotted sheep, every dark-colored lamb, and every spotted or speckled goat. These will become my wages.

    33My honesty will testify for me in the future. When you check what I’ve taken as payment, if you find any in my possession that is not speckled or spotted among the goats, or dark-colored among the lambs, let it be considered stolen.
