10. “I had a dream during the season when the animals were mating. I saw that the only male goats who were mating were streaked, speckled or spotted.
11. The angel of God spoke to me in that dream. He said, ‘Jacob!’ I answered, ‘Yes!’
12. The angel said, ‘Look! Only the streaked, speckled or spotted goats are mating. I have seen all the wrong things Laban does to you.
13. I am the God who appeared to you at Bethel. There you poured olive oil on the stone you set up on end. There you made a promise to me. Now I want you to leave here. Go back to the land where you were born.’”
14. Rachel and Leah answered Jacob, “Our father has nothing to give us when he dies.
15. He has treated us like strangers. He sold us to you, and then he spent all of the money you paid for us.
16. God took all this wealth from our father, and now it belongs to us and our children. So you do whatever God told you to do.”
