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.
Hoy pasaré por todos tus rebaños y manadas, apartando todo el ganado manchado y moteado, todas las ovejas de color oscuro, y todas las cabras manchadas y moteadas. Estos animales serán mi salario.
Jacob propuso tomar como salario únicamente los animales manchados, moteados y de color oscuro de los rebaños de Labán.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This verse comes from Jacob's negotiation with his uncle Laban about his wages for tending Laban's flocks. After working for Laban for twenty years (fourteen for his wives Rachel and Leah, and six more for livestock), Jacob was seeking to build his own wealth. In ancient Middle Eastern culture, livestock was the primary measure of wealth, and breeding practices were well understood by shepherds.
