Genesis 30:29-31
1599 Geneva Bible
29 But he said unto him, Thou knowest, what service I have done thee, and in what taking thy cattle hath been [a]under me.
30 For the little, that thou haddest before I came, is increased into a multitude: and the Lord hath blessed thee [b]by my coming: but now when shall [c]I travail for mine own house also?
31 Then he said, What shall I give thee? And Jacob answered, Thou shalt give me nothing at all: if thou wilt do this thing for me, I will return, feed, and keep thy sheep.
