Genesis 30:36-38

Lexham English Bible

³⁶ And he put a journey of three days between him and Jacob, and Jacob pastured the remainder of Laban’s flock. ³⁷ Then Jacob took fresh branches of poplar, almond, and plane trees and peeled white strips on them, exposing the white which was on the branches. ³⁸ And he set the branches that he had peeled in front of the flocks, in the troughs and in the water containers. And they were in heat when they came to drink.
