Genesis 31:40-42

Expanded Bible

⁴⁰ In the daytime the ·sun [heat] ·took away my strength [^Lconsumed me], and at night I was cold and ·could not sleep [^Lsleep fled from my eyes]. ⁴¹ I [^Lwas in your house and] worked like a slave for you for twenty years—the first fourteen to get your two daughters and the last six to earn your flocks. During that time you changed my ·pay [wages] ten times. ⁴² But the God of my father, the God of Abraham and the ·God [^LFear; ^Ca title for God; Prov. 1:7] of Isaac, was with me. Otherwise, you would have sent me away with nothing. But he saw the ·trouble [affliction] I had and the hard work I did, and last night he ·corrected [admonished; reproved] you.”
