Genesis 31:30-32

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³⁰ Suppose thou didst desire to go to thy friends, and hadst a longing after thy father's house: why hast thou stolen away my gods?

³¹ Jacob answered: That I departed unknown to thee, it was for fear lest thou wouldst take away thy daughters by force.

³² But whereas thou chargest me with theft: with whomsoever thou shalt find thy gods, let him be slain before our brethren. Search, and if thou find any of thy things with me, take them away. Now when he said this, he knew not that Rachel had stolen the idols.
