Genesis 31:38 in Context — Genesis 31

36 Então Jacó se irou, e brigou com Labão; e respondeu Jacó e disse a Labão: Que transgressão é a minha? Qual é meu pecado, que com tanto ardor vieste a me perseguir?

37 Depois que apalpaste todos os meus móveis, acaso achaste algum dos objetos de tua casa? Põe-o aqui diante de meus irmãos e teus, e julguem entre nós ambos.

38 Estes vinte anos estive contigo; tuas ovelhas e tuas cabras nunca abortaram, nem eu comi carneiro de tuas ovelhas.

39 Nunca te trouxe o arrebatado pelas feras; eu pagava o dano; o furtado tanto de dia como de noite, de minha mão o exigias.

40 De dia me consumia o calor, e de noite a geada, e o sono se fugia de meus olhos.
