Genesis 30:35-37

Revised Geneva Translation

³⁵ Therefore, the same day, he took out the male goats that were parti-colored and with great spots, and all the female goats with little and great spots, and all that had white in them, and all the black among the sheep, and put them in the keeping of his sons.

³⁶ And he set three days journey between himself and Jacob. And Jacob kept the rest of Laban’s sheep.

³⁷ Then Jacob took rods of green poplar, and of hazel, and of the chestnut tree, and peeled white strips in them, and made the white appear in the rods.
