Gênesis 30:37

Então, Jacó tomou varas verdes de álamo, de aveleira e de plátano, e lhes removeu a casca, em riscas abertas, fazendo aparecer a brancura das varas.

And Jacob took him rods of green poplar, and of the hazel and chestnut tree; and pilled white strakes in them, and made the white appear which was in the rods.
