9 So God has ^ataken away the livestock of your father and given them to me.

10 “And it happened, at the time when the flocks conceived, that I lifted my eyes and saw in a dream, and behold, the rams which leaped upon the flocks were streaked, speckled, and gray-spotted.

11 Then ^athe Angel of God spoke to me in a dream, saying, ‘Jacob.’ And I said, ‘Here I am.’

12 And He said, ‘Lift your eyes now and see, all the rams which leap on the flocks are streaked, speckled, and gray-spotted; for ^aI have seen all that Laban is doing to you.

13 I am the God of Bethel, ^awhere you anointed the pillar and where you made a vow to Me. Now ^barise, get out of this land, and return to the land of your family.’ ”

14 Then Rachel and Leah answered and said to him, ^a“Is there still any portion or inheritance for us in our father’s house?

15 Are we not considered strangers by him? For ^ahe has sold us, and also completely consumed our money.
