Genesis 31:1 And he heard8085 the words1697 of Laban's3837 sons,1121 saying,559 Jacob3290 hath taken away3947 all that was our father's;1 and of that which was our father's1 hath he gotten6213 all this glory.35192 And Jacob3290 beheld7200 the countenance6440 of Laban,3837 and, behold, it was not toward him as8543 before.8032{Heb. as yesterday and the day before}3 And the LORD3068 said559 unto Jacob,3290 Return7725 unto the land776 of thy fathers,1 and to thy kindred;4138 and I will be with thee.
4 And Jacob3290 sent7971 and called7121 Rachel7354 and Leah3812 to the field7704 unto his flock,66295 And said559 unto them, I see7200 your father's1 countenance,6440 that it is not toward me as8543 before;8032 but the God430 of my father1 hath been1961 with me.
6 And ye859 know3045 that with all my power3581 I have served5647 your father.17 And your father1 hath deceived2048 me, and changed2498 my wages4909 ten6235 times;4489 but God430 suffered him5414 not to hurt7489 me.59788 If he said559 thus, The speckled5348 shall be thy wages;7939 then all the cattle6629 bare3205 speckled:5348 and if he said559 thus, The ringstraked6124 shall be thy hire;7939 then bare3205 all the cattle6629 ringstraked.61249 Thus God430 hath taken away5337 the cattle4735 of your father,1 and given5414them to me.
10 And it came to pass at the time6256 that the cattle6629 conceived,3179 that I lifted up5375 mine eyes,5869 and saw7200 in a dream,2472 and, behold, the rams6260{Or, he goats} which leaped5927 upon the cattle6629were ringstraked,6124 speckled,5348 and grisled.126111 And the angel4397 of God430 spake559 unto me in a dream,2472saying, Jacob:3290 And I said,559 Here am I.
12 And he said,559 Lift up5375 now thine eyes,5869 and see,7200 all the rams6260 which leap5927 upon the cattle6629are ringstraked,6124 speckled,5348 and grisled:1261 for I have seen7200 all that Laban3837 doeth6213 unto thee.
13 I am the God410 of Bethel,1008 where thou anointedst4886 the pillar,4676and where thou vowedst5087 a vow5088 unto me: now arise,6965 get thee out3318 from this land,776 and return7725 unto the land776 of thy kindred.413814 And Rachel7354 and Leah3812 answered6030 and said559 unto him, Isthere yet any portion2506 or inheritance5159 for us in our father's1 house?100415 Are we not counted2803 of him strangers?5237 for he hath sold4376 us, and hath quite398 devoured398 also our money.370116 For all the riches6239 which God430 hath taken5337 from our father,1 that is ours, and our children's:1121 now then, whatsoever God430 hath said559 unto thee, do.6213
Genesis 31:17 Then Jacob3290 rose up,6965 and set5375 his sons1121 and his wives802 upon camels;158118 And he carried away5090 all his cattle,4735 and all his goods7399 which he had gotten,7408 the cattle4735 of his getting,7075 which he had gotten7408 in Padanaram,6307 for to go935 to Isaac3327 his father1 in the land776 of Canaan.366719 And Laban3837 went1980 to shear1494 his sheep:6629 and Rachel7354 had stolen1589 the images8655{Heb. teraphim} that were her father's.120 And Jacob3290 stole away1589 unawares3820 to Laban3837{Heb. the heart of Laban} the Syrian,761 in that5921 he told5046 him not1097 that he fled.127221 So he fled1272 with all that he had; and he rose up,6965 and passed over5674 the river,5104 and set7760 his face6440toward the mount2022 Gilead.156822 And it was told5046 Laban3837 on the third7992 day3117 that Jacob3290 was fled.127223 And he took3947 his brethren251 with him, and pursued7291 after him310 seven7651 days'3117 journey;1870 and they overtook1692 him in the mount2022 Gilead.156824 And God430 came935 to Laban3837 the Syrian761 in a dream2472 by night,3915 and said559 unto him, Take heed8104 that thou speak1696 not to5973 Jacob3290 either good2896 or5704 bad.7451{Heb. from good to bad}
Genesis 31:25 Then Laban3837 overtook5381 Jacob.3290 Now Jacob3290 had pitched8628 his tent168 in the mount:2022 and Laban3837 with his brethren251 pitched8628 in the mount2022 of Gilead.156826 And Laban3837 said559 to Jacob,3290 What hast thou done,6213 that thou hast stolen away1589 unawares3824 to me, and carried away5090 my daughters,1323 as captives7617taken with the sword?271927 Wherefore didst thou flee away1272 secretly,2244 and steal away1589 from me;{Heb. hast stolen me} and didst not tell5046 me, that I might have sent thee away7971 with mirth,8057 and with songs,7892 with tabret,8596 and with harp?365828 And hast not suffered5203 me to kiss5401 my sons1121 and my daughters?1323 thou hast now done foolishly5528 in so doing.621329 It is3426 in the power410 of my hand3027 to do6213 you hurt:7451 but the God430 of your father1 spake559 unto me yesternight,570 saying,559 Take thou heed8104 that thou speak not1696 to Jacob3290 either good2896 or bad.745130 And now, though thou wouldest needs1980 be gone,1980 because thou sore3700 longedst3700 after thy father's1 house,1004yet wherefore hast thou stolen1589 my gods?43031 And Jacob3290 answered6030 and said559 to Laban,3837 Because I was afraid:3372 for I said,559 Peradventure6435 thou wouldest take by force1497 thy daughters1323 from me.
32 With whomsoever834 thou findest4672 thy gods,430 let him not live:2421 before5048 our brethren251 discern5234 thou what is thine with me, and take3947it to thee. For Jacob3290 knew3045 not that Rachel7354 had stolen1589 them.
33 And Laban3837 went935 into Jacob's3290 tent,168 and into Leah's3812 tent,168 and into the two8147 maidservants'519 tents;168 but he found4672them not. Then went he out3318 of Leah's3812 tent,168 and entered935 into Rachel's7354 tent.16834 Now Rachel7354 had taken3947 the images,8655 and put7760 them in the camel's1581 furniture,3733 and sat3427 upon them. And Laban3837 searched4959{Heb. felt} all the tent,168 but found4672them not.
35 And she said559 to her father,1 Let it not displease27345869 my lord113 that I cannot3201 rise up6965 before thee;6440 for the custom1870 of women802is upon me. And he searched,2664 but found4672 not the images.8655
Genesis 31:36 And Jacob3290 was wroth,2734 and chode7378 with Laban:3837 and Jacob3290 answered6030 and said559 to Laban,3837 What is my trespass?6588 what is my sin,2403 that thou hast so hotly pursued1814 after me?31037 Whereas3588 thou hast searched4959{Heb. felt} all my stuff,3627 what hast thou found4672 of all thy household1004 stuff?3627 set7760it here3541 before my brethren251 and thy brethren,251 that they may judge3198 betwixt996 us both.814738 This twenty6242 years8141have I been with thee; thy ewes7353 and thy she goats5795 have not cast their young,7921 and the rams352 of thy flock6629 have I not eaten.39839 That which was torn2966ofbeasts I brought935 not unto thee; I bare the loss2398 of it; of my hand3027 didst thou require1245 it, whether stolen1589 by day,3117 or stolen1589 by night.391540Thus I was; in the day3117 the drought2721 consumed398 me, and the frost7140 by night;3915 and my sleep8142 departed5074 from mine eyes.586941 Thus have I been twenty6242 years8141 in thy house;1004 I served thee5647 fourteen7026240 years8141 for thy two8147 daughters,1323 and six8337 years8141 for thy cattle:6629 and thou hast changed2498 my wages4909 ten6235 times.448942 Except3884 the God430 of my father,1 the God430 of Abraham,85 and the fear6343 of Isaac,3327 had been with me, surely thou hadst sent me away7971 now empty.7387 God430 hath seen7200 mine affliction6040 and the labour3018 of my hands,3709 and rebuked3198thee yesternight.570
Genesis 31:43 And Laban3837 answered6030 and said559 unto Jacob,3290These daughters1323are my daughters,1323 and these children1121are my children,1121 and these cattle6629are my cattle,6629 and all that thou seest7200is mine: and what can I do6213 this day3117 unto these my daughters,1323 or176 unto their children1121 which they have born?320544 Now therefore come thou,3212 let us make3772 a covenant,1285 I and thou; and let it be for a witness5707 between me and thee.
45 And Jacob3290 took3947 a stone,68 and set it up7311for a pillar.467646 And Jacob3290 said559 unto his brethren,251 Gather3950 stones;68 and they took3947 stones,68 and made6213 an heap:1530 and they did eat398 there upon the heap.153047 And Laban3837 called7121 it Jegarsahadutha:3026{that is, The heap of witness} but Jacob3290 called7121 it Galeed.156748 And Laban3837 said,559 This heap1530is a witness5707 between me and thee this day.3117 Therefore was the name8034 of it called7121 Galeed;156749 And Mizpah;4709{that is, A beacon, or, watchtower} for834 he said,559 The LORD3068 watch6822 between me and thee, when we are absent5641 one376 from another.745350 If thou shalt afflict6031 my daughters,1323 or if thou shalt take3947other wives802 beside5921 my daughters,1323 no man376is with us; see,7200 God430is witness5707 betwixt me and thee.
51 And Laban3837 said559 to Jacob,3290 Behold this heap,1530 and behold this pillar,4676 which I have cast3384 betwixt me and thee;
52 This heap1530be witness,5707 and this pillar4676be witness,5713 that I will not pass over5674 this heap1530 to thee, and that thou shalt not pass over5674 this heap1530 and this pillar4676 unto me, for harm.745153 The God430 of Abraham,85 and the God430 of Nahor,5152 the God430 of their father,1 judge8199 betwixt us. And Jacob3290 sware7650 by the fear6343 of his father1 Isaac.332754 Then Jacob3290 offered2076 sacrifice2077{Or, killed beasts} upon the mount,2022 and called7121 his brethren251 to eat398 bread:3899 and they did eat398 bread,3899 and tarried all night3885 in the mount.202255 And early79252794 in the morning1242 Laban3837 rose up,7925 and kissed5401 his sons1121 and his daughters,1323 and blessed1288 them: and Laban3837 departed,3212 and returned7725 unto his place.4725
