Genesis 31:40-42

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁴⁰ Day and night was I parched with heat, and with frost, and sleep departed from my eyes.

⁴¹ And in this manner have I served thee in thy house twenty years, fourteen for thy daughters, and six for thy flocks: thou hast changed also my wages ten times.

⁴² Unless the God of my father Abraham, and the fear of Isaac had stood by me, peradventure now thou hadst sent me away naked: God beheld my affliction and the labour of my hands, and rebuked thee yesterday.
