Genesis 30:38-40
1599 Geneva Bible
38 Then he put the rods, which he had pilled, in the gutters and watering troughs, when the sheep came to drink, before the sheep: (for they were in heat, when they came to drink.)
39 And the sheep [a]were in heat before the rods, and afterward brought forth young of parti-color, and with small and great spots.
40 And Jacob parted these lambs, and turned the faces of the flock towards those lambs parti-colored, and all manner of black, among the sheep of Laban: so he put his own flock by themselves, and put them not with Laban’s flock.
