Genesis 30:38 in Context — Genesis 30
36 Puis il mit l’espace de trois journées de chemin entre lui et Jacob; et Jacob fit paître le reste du troupeau de Laban.
37 Jacob prit des branches vertes de peuplier, d’amandier et de platane; il y pela des bandes blanches, mettant à nu le blanc qui était sur les branches.
38 Puis il plaça les branches, qu’il avait pelées, dans les auges, dans les abreuvoirs, sous les yeux des brebis qui venaient boire, pour qu’elles entrassent en chaleur en venant boire.
39 Les brebis entraient en chaleur près des branches, et elles faisaient des petits rayés, tachetés et marquetés.
40 Jacob séparait les agneaux, et il mettait ensemble ce qui était rayé et tout ce qui était noir dans le troupeau de Laban. Il se fit ainsi des troupeaux à part, qu’il ne réunit point au troupeau de Laban.
