## Genesis 30:27-30 in Context (Verses 24–33 KJV)
 
 [24 ](/kjv/genesis/30/24) And she called his name Joseph; and said, The LORD shall add to me another son.*
 
 [25 ](/kjv/genesis/30/25) ¶ And it came to pass, when Rachel had born Joseph, that Jacob said unto Laban, Send me away, that I may go unto mine own place, and to my country.
 
 [26 ](/kjv/genesis/30/26) Give *me* my wives and my children, for whom I have served thee, and let me go: for thou knowest my service which I have done thee.
 
 [27 ](/kjv/genesis/30/27) And Laban said unto him, I pray thee, if I have found favour in thine eyes, *tarry: for* I have learned by experience that the LORD hath blessed me for thy sake.
 
 [28 ](/kjv/genesis/30/28) And he said, Appoint me thy wages, and I will give *it*.
 
 [29 ](/kjv/genesis/30/29) And he said unto him, Thou knowest how I have served thee, and how thy cattle was with me.
 
 [30 ](/kjv/genesis/30/30) For *it was* little which thou hadst before I *came*, and it is *now* increased unto a multitude; and the LORD hath blessed thee since my coming: and now when shall I provide for mine own house also?**
 
 [31 ](/kjv/genesis/30/31) And he said, What shall I give thee? And Jacob said, Thou shalt not give me any thing: if thou wilt do this thing for me, I will again feed *and* keep thy flock:
 
 [32 ](/kjv/genesis/30/32) I will pass through all thy flock to day, removing from thence all the speckled and spotted cattle, and all the brown cattle among the sheep, and the spotted and speckled among the goats: and *of such* shall be my hire.
 
 [33 ](/kjv/genesis/30/33) So shall my righteousness answer for me in time to come, when it shall come for my hire before thy face: every one that *is* not speckled and spotted among the goats, and brown among the sheep, that shall be counted stolen with me.*
