19And Laban hath gone to shear his flock, and Rachel stealeth the teraphim which her father hath; 20and Jacob deceiveth the heart of Laban the Aramaean, because he hath not declared to him that he is fleeing; 21and he fleeth, he and all that he hath, and riseth, and passeth over the River, and setteth his face toward the mount of Gilead.
