Genesis 31:41

For 20 years [according to Jewish tradition, 1929-1909 BC] I have been with you. I have served you for 14 years for your two daughters and for 6 years for your livestock, but you have changed my wages ten times [again and again, see verse 7]. [Jacob first works seven years for Rachel, but Laban gives him Leah. A few weeks later, he gets Rachel (Gen. 31:20, 25), but has to work another 7 years (Gen. 31:29). Jacob then works another 6 years, but then he gets his wages, see Gen. 30:28, 43.]
