Genesis 31:1-3

New International Reader's Version

Jacob Runs Away From Laban

31 Jacob heard what Laban’s sons were saying. “Jacob has taken everything our father owned,” they said. “He has gained all this wealth from what belonged to our father.” ² Jacob noticed that Laban’s feelings toward him had changed.

³ Then the Lord spoke to Jacob. He said, “Go back to your father’s land and to your relatives. I will be with you.”
