Genesis 30:28 — Meaning and Application

And he said unto him, Thou knowest how I have served thee, and how thy cattle was with me.

For {it was} little which thou hadst before I {came}, and it is {now} increased unto a multitude; and the LORD hath blessed thee since my coming: and now when shall I provide for mine own house also? {increased: Heb. broken forth} {since...: Heb. at my foot}
