The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from King James Bible: cattle.
GEN 30:41 And it came to pass, whensoever the stronger cattle did
conceive, that Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of the cattle in the
gutters, that they might conceive among the rods.
GEN 30:42 But when the cattle were feeble, he put them not in: so the
feebler were Laban's, and the stronger Jacob's.
GEN 30:43 And the man increased exceedingly, and had much cattle, and
maidservants, and menservants, and camels, and asses.
GEN 31:1 And he heard the words of Laban's sons, saying, Jacob hath
taken away all that was our father's; and of that which was our father's
hath he gotten all this glory.
