Da schied Jakob die Lämmer und richtete die Herde mit dem Angesicht gegen die Gefleckten und Schwarzen in der Herde Labans und machte sich eine eigene Herde, die tat er nicht zu der Herde Labans.
Y apartaba Jacob los corderos, y poníalos con su rebaño, los listados, y todo lo que era oscuro en el hato de Labán. Y ponía su hato aparte, y no lo ponía con las ovejas de Labán.
Jacob apartaba los corderos y hacía que el rebaño mirara hacia los animales rayados y todos los oscuros del rebaño de Labán. Mantenía sus propios rebaños separados y no los juntaba con el rebaño de Labán.
Jacob séparait les agneaux, et il mettait ensemble ce qui était rayé et tout ce qui était noir dans le troupeau de Laban. Il se fit ainsi des troupeaux à part, qu'il ne réunit point au troupeau de Laban.
Poi, come Giacobbe avea spartiti gli agnelli, faceva volger gli occhi alle pecore delle gregge di Labano, verso le vaiolate, e verso tutte quelle ch’erano di color fosco; e metteva le sue gregge da parte, e non le metteva di rincontro alle pecore di Labano.
Então separou Jacó os cordeiros, e pôs as faces do rebanho para os listrados, e todo o moreno entre o rebanho de Labão; e pôs o seu rebanho à parte, e não o pôs com o rebanho de Labão.
雅各 把小綿羊分出來,讓羊對著 拉班 羊群中有紋的和所有黑色的。於是他把自己的羊群分開,不叫牠們和 拉班 的羊混在一起。
