38 These twenty years I am with thee; thy sheep and thy she-goats were not barren, and the rams of thy flock, I ate not. 39 The torn I brought not to thee; I shall bear the blame of it; from my hand thou will seek it, thefts of the day, and thefts of the night. 40 I was in the day, the drought consumed me, and cold in the night, and sleep will flee away from mine eyes. 41 Here to me twenty years in thy house; I served thee fourteen years for thy two daughters, and six years for thy sheep; and thou wilt change my hire ten portions. 42 If the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the fear of Isaak was not with me, then now, empty thou hadst sent me away. My affliction and the labor of my hand God saw and he rebuked yesterday. Genesis 31:38-42, Smith's Literal Translation. Public domain.
