5And said vnto them, I see your fathers countenance, that it is not toward mee as before: but the God of my father hath bene with me. 6And yee know, that with all my power I haue serued your father. 7And your father hath deceiued mee, and changed my wages ten times: but God suffered him not to hurt me. 8If hee said thus, The speckled shall be thy wages, then all the cattell bare speckled: and if he said thus, The ring-straked shalbe thy hire, then bare all the cattell ring-straked. 9Thus God hath taken away the cattell of your father, and giuen them to mee.
