# Should you serve me for nothing ... my relative?
2016-02-23 02:42:46 +00:00
Laban uses a question to emphasize that he should pay Jacob for working for him. The question can be translated as a statement. This can also be stated in positive form. Alternate translation: "It is certainly right that I should pay you for working for me even though you are my relative."
