and setteth up the rods which he hath peeled in the gutters in the watering troughs (when the flock cometh in to drink), over-against the flock, that they may conceive in their coming in to drink;

And he put the banded sticks in the drinking-places where the flock came to get water; and they became with young when they came to the water.

and when the flock is feeble, he doth not set [them]; and the feeble ones have been Laban`s, and the strong ones Jacob`s.

But when the flocks were feeble, he did not put the sticks before them; so that the feebler flocks were Laban's and the stronger were Jacob's.
