1 One day Jacob heard Laban’s sons talking. They said, “Jacob has taken everything our father owned, and in this way he has become rich.”
2 Then Jacob noticed that Laban was not as friendly as he had been before.
3 The Lord said to Jacob, “Go back to the land where your ancestors lived, and I will be with you.”
4 So Jacob told Rachel and Leah to meet him in the field where he kept his flocks.
5 He said to them, “I have seen that your father is not as friendly with me as he used to be, but the God of my father has been with me.
