Genesis 31:1-4 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

1. Jacob heard that Laban’s sons were saying, “Jacob has taken everything that belonged to our father, and he has produced all this wealth from our father’s property.”

2. Jacob perceived, too, that Laban’s attitude toward him was not what it had previously been.

3. Then the Lord said to Jacob: Return to the land of your ancestors, where you were born, and I will be with you.

4. So Jacob sent for Rachel and Leah to meet him in the field where his flock was.
