Genesis 30:35-37

New American Standard Bible

³⁵ So he removed on that day the striped or spotted male goats, and all the speckled or spotted female goats, every one with white on it, and all the black ones among the sheep, and put them in the ^[a]care of his sons. ³⁶ And he put a distance of three days’ journey between himself and Jacob, and Jacob fed the rest of Laban’s flocks.

³⁷ Then Jacob ^[b]took fresh rods of poplar, almond, and plane trees, and peeled white stripes in them, exposing the white that was ^[c]in the rods.
