Laban make a new covenant with Jacob
27 Then said Laban: If I have found favor in your eyes, tarry. I have experienced that the Lord blessed me for thy sake.
28 And he said, Appoint me your wages and I will give.
29 And he said unto him, Thou knowest how I have served thee, and how thy cattle was with me.
30 For the little you had before me, is increased to a multitude: and the Lord has blessed you my work. And now, when shall I also work for my home?
31 And he said, What shall I give you? Jacob said: Nothing will give me; will again feed and keep thy flock if you do this to me:
32 will pass through all thy flock, separating it every speckled and spotted, and all the brown among the sheep, and the spotted and speckled among the goats; and this will be my wages.
33 So shall testify for me my justice of tomorrow, when you come to my salary is before thee; all that is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and brown among the lambs, will be me for theft.
34 And Laban said, Behold, hopefully be according to thy word.
35 And he removed that day the striped and spotted male goats and all the speckled and spotted goats, all that whiteness had, and all the brown among the sheep; and gave them into the hands of their children.
36 And he set three days' journey between himself and Jacob; and Jacob fed the rest of Laban's flocks.
