Genesis 31:27-29

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

²⁷ Why did you secretly flee from me, deceive me, and not tell me? I would have sent you away with joy and singing, with tambourines and lyres, ²⁸ but you didn’t even let me kiss my grandchildren and my daughters. You have acted foolishly. ²⁹ I could do you great harm, but last night the God of your father said to me, “Watch yourself! Don’t say anything to Jacob, either good or bad.”
