Bible Text

[26] Laban said to Jacob, "What have you done, that you have deceived me, and carried away my daughters like captives of the sword? [27] Why did you flee secretly, and deceive me, and didn't tell me, that I might have sent you away with mirth and with songs, with tambourine and with harp; [28] and didn't allow me to kiss my sons and my daughters? Now have you done foolishly.
