Genesis:31:36-42

*
And Jacob was angry ,
and chided with Laban .
And Jacob answered and said to Laban ,
What is my trespass ?
What is my sin that thou have hotly pursued after me ?
*
Whereas thou have felt around all my stuff ,
what have thou found of all thy household stuff ?
Set it here before my brothers and thy brothers ,
that they may judge between us two .
*
These twenty years I have been with thee ,
thy ewes and thy she-goats have not cast their young ,
and I have not eaten the rams of thy flocks .
*
I did not bring to thee that which was torn by beasts ;
I bore the loss of it ,
of my hand thou required it ,
whether stolen by day or stolen by night .
*
Thus I was ;
in the day the drought consumed me ,
and the frost by night ,
and my sleep fled from my eyes .
*
These twenty years I have been in thy house .
I served thee fourteen years for thy two daughters ,
and six years for thy flock .
And thou have changed my wages ten times .
*
Unless the God of my father ,
the God of Abraham ,
and the fear of Isaac ,
had been with me ,
surely now thou would have sent me away empty .
God has seen my affliction and the labor of my hands ,
and rebuked thee last night .
