37 But Iacob toke staues of grene wyllies, hasell and of chestnottrees, and pylled whyte strekes in them,
38 and layed the staues that he had pylled, in the drynkinge troughes before the flocke, which came there to drynke, that they shulde conceaue, whan they came to drynke.
39 So the flockes conceaued ouer ye staues, and brought forth speckelde, spotted and partye coloured.
40 Then Iacob parted ye lambes, and put them to the flocke vnto the spotted: and all that was blacke in Labans flocke, that put he vnto the spotted. And he made him a flocke of his owne, which he put not vnto Labans flocke.
41 Neuertheles in the first buckynge tyme of the flockes, he layed the staues in the drynkinge troughes before the eyes of the flockes, that they shulde conceaue ouer the staues.
42 But in the latter buckynge tyme he layed them not in. So the later were Labans, but the firstlinges were Iacobs.
43 Thus the man became exceadinge riche, so that he had many shepe, maydens & seruauntes, Camels and Asses.
