“And he said, Lift up now thine eyes, and see, all the rams which leap upon the cattle are ringstraked, speckled, and grisled: for I have seen all that Laban doeth unto thee.”
And he said: look up and see that all the male goats mating with the flock are streaked, speckled, or spotted, for I have seen all that Laban has been doing to you. The divine reason for the providential breeding outcome is explicitly stated: I have seen all that Laban has been doing to you. Psalm 12:5 declares that the LORD will arise for the cause of the poor. The application: the God who sees exploitation responds to it. The twenty years of Laban's changing wages were seen, and the breeding arrangement was the divine response.
