15. Aren’t we accounted by him as foreigners? For he has sold us, and has also quite devoured our money.
16. For all the riches which God has taken away from our father, that is ours and our children’s. Now then, whatever God has said to you, do.”
17. Then Jacob rose up, and set his sons and his wives on the camels,
18. and he took away all his livestock, and all his possessions which he had gathered, including the livestock which he had gained in Paddan Aram, to go to Isaac his father, to the land of Canaan.
19. Now Laban had gone to shear his sheep: and Rachel stole the teraphim that were her father’s.
20. Jacob deceived Laban the Syrian, in that he didn’t tell him that he was running away.
21. So he fled with all that he had. He rose up, passed over the River, and set his face toward the mountain of Gilead.
22. Laban was told on the third day that Jacob had fled.
23. He took his relatives with him, and pursued him seven days’ journey. He overtook him in the mountain of Gilead.
24. God came to Laban, the Syrian, in a dream of the night, and said to him, “Be careful that you don’t speak to Jacob either good or bad.”
