Genesis 31:36-42

[36] And Jacob  was wroth,  and chode  with Laban:  and Jacob  answered  and said  to Laban,  What is my trespass?  what is my sin,  that thou hast so hotly pursued  after me?  [37] Whereas  thou hast searched  all my stuff,  what hast thou found  of all thy household  stuff?  set  it here  before my brethren  that they may judge  betwixt  us both.  [38] This twenty  years  have I been with thee; thy ewes  and thy she goats  have not cast their young,  and the rams  of thy flock  have I not eaten.  [39] That which was torn  of beasts I brought  not unto thee; I bare the loss  of it; of my hand  didst thou require  it, whether stolen  by day,  or stolen  by night.  [40] Thus I was; in the day  the drought  consumed  me, and the frost  by night;  and my sleep  departed  from mine eyes.  [41] Thus have I been twenty  years  in thy house;  I served thee  fourteen  years  for thy two  daughters,  and six  years  for thy cattle:  and thou hast changed  my wages  ten  times.  [42] Except  the God  of my father,  the God  of Abraham,  and the fear  of Isaac,  had been with me, surely thou hadst sent me away  now empty.  God  hath seen  mine affliction  and the labour  of my hands,  and rebuked  thee yesternight.
