1 Jacob heard that Laban's sons were saying, “Jacob has taken everything that belonged to our father. All his wealth has come from what our father owned.”
2 He also saw that Laban was no longer as friendly as he had been earlier.
3 Then the Lord said to him, “Go back to the land of your fathers and to your relatives. I will be with you.”
4 So Jacob sent word to Rachel and Leah to meet him in the field where his flocks were.
5 He said to them, “I have noticed that your father is not as friendly towards me as he used to be; but my father's God has been with me.
6 You both know that I have worked for your father with all my strength.
