1. One day Jacob heard Laban’s sons talking. They said, “Jacob has taken everything that our father owned. He has become rich—and he has taken all this wealth from our father.”
2. Then Jacob noticed that Laban was not as friendly as he had been in the past.
3. The Lord said to Jacob, “Go back to your own land where your ancestors lived. I will be with you.”
4. So Jacob told Rachel and Leah to meet him in the field where he kept his flocks of sheep and goats.
