As soon as Rachel had home Joseph / Jacob said to Laban: Send me away that I may goo unto mine own place and country / give me my wives and my children for whom I have served thee / and let me goo: for thou knowest what service I have done thee. Than said Laban unto him: If I have found favour in thy sight (for I suppose that the LORD hath blessed me for thy sake) appoint what thy reward shall be / and I will give it y. But he said unto him / thou knowest what service I have done y / & in what taking thy cattle have been under me: For it was but little that thou haddest before I came / and now it is increased in to a multitude and the LORD hath blessed thee for my sake.
