"The flocks conceived before the rods, and the flocks brought forth streaked, speckled, and spotted."
— Genesis 30:39, World English Bible
“And the flocks conceived before the rods, and brought forth cattle ringstraked, speckled, and spotted.”
“And the flocks conceived before the rods, and the flocks brought forth ringstreaked, speckled, and spotted. ”
“When the sheep mated in front of the branches, they gave birth to young that were streaked or speckled or spotted.”
“And it came to pass, that in the very heat of coition, the sheep beheld the rods, and brought forth spotted, and of divers colours, and speckled.”
“And because of this, the flock gave birth to young which were marked with bands of colour.”
“And the flocks conceived before the rods, and brought forth cattle ringstraked, speckled, and spotted.”
He set three days' journey between himself and Jacob, and Jacob fed the rest of Laban's flocks.
Jacob took to himself rods of fresh poplar, almond, plane tree, peeled white streaks in them, and made the white appear which was in the rods.
He set the rods which he had peeled opposite the flocks in the gutters in the watering-troughs where the flocks came to drink. They conceived when they came to drink.
The flocks conceived before the rods, and the flocks brought forth streaked, speckled, and spotted.
Jacob separated the lambs, and set the faces of the flocks toward the streaked and all the black in the flock of Laban: and he put his own droves apart, and didn't put them into Laban's flock.
It happened, whenever the stronger of the flock conceived, that Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of the flock in the gutters, that they might conceive among the rods;
but when the flock were feeble, he didn't put them in. So the feebler were Laban's, and the stronger Jacob's.
