Genesis 30:33

30:33 My integrity will testify for me later on. When you come to verify that I’ve taken only the wages we agreed on, if I have in my possession any goat that is not speckled or spotted or any sheep that is not dark-colored, it will be considered stolen.”

Genesis 30:35

30:35 So that day Laban removed the male goats that were streaked or spotted, all the female goats that were speckled or spotted (all that had any white on them), and all the dark-colored lambs, and put them in the care of his sons.


tn Heb “will answer on my behalf.”

tn Heb “on the following day,” or “tomorrow.”

tn Heb “when you come concerning my wage before you.”

tn Heb “every one which is not speckled and spotted among the lambs and dark among the goats, stolen it is with me.”

tn Heb “he”; the referent (Laban) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

tn Heb “and he gave [them] into the hand.”
