36 Jacob was angry, and argued with Laban. Jacob answered Laban, 'What is my trespass? What is my sin, that you have hotly pursued after me?
37 Now that you have felt around in all my stuff, what have you found of all your household stuff? Set it here before my relatives and your relatives, that they may judge between us two.
38 These twenty years have I been with you. Your ewes and your female goats have not cast their young, and I haven't eaten the rams of your flocks.
39 That which was torn of animals, I didn't bring to you. I bore the loss of it. Of my hand you required it, whether stolen by day or stolen by night.
40 Thus I was; in the day the drought consumed me, and the frost by night; and my sleep fled from my eyes.
