E collocò i bastoni che aveva scanalati, nei canali e nelle conche d’acqua, dove il bestiame andava a bere dirimpetto al bestiame, e andando a bere entrava in calore.
Targum Jonathan on Genesis
And the rods which he had peeled, he fixed in the canals, in the troughs of water; at the place to which they brought the flocks to water, there placed he them over against the flock that they might conceive when they came to drink.
