Genesis 30:41-43

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁴¹ So when the ewes went first to ram, Jacob put the rods in the troughs of water before the eyes of the rams, and of the ewes, that they might conceive while they were looking upon them:

⁴² But when the latter coming was, and the last conceiving, he did not put them. And those that were lateward, became Laban's: and they of the first time, Jacob's.

⁴³ And the man was enriched exceedingly, and he had many flocks, maid servants and men servants, camels and asses.
