22. On the third day Laban was told that Jacob had fled.
23. So he took his relatives with him, pursued Jacob for seven days, and overtook him at Mount Gilead.
24. But God came to Laban the Aramean in a dream at night. “Watch yourself! ” God warned him. “Don’t say anything to Jacob, either good or bad.”
25. When Laban overtook Jacob, Jacob had pitched his tent in the hill country, and Laban and his brothers also pitched their tents in the hill country of Gilead.
26. Then Laban said to Jacob, “What have you done? You have deceived me and taken my daughters away like prisoners of war!
27. Why did you secretly flee from me, deceive me, and not tell me? I would have sent you away with joy and singing, with tambourines and lyres,
28. but you didn’t even let me kiss my grandchildren and my daughters. You have acted foolishly.
29. I could do you great harm, but last night the God of your father said to me: ‘Watch yourself. Don’t say anything to Jacob, either good or bad.’
