Genesis 31:35-37

New International Reader's Version

³⁵ Rachel said to her father, “I’m sorry, sir. I can’t get up for you right now. But don’t be angry with me. I’m having my monthly period.” So he searched everywhere but couldn’t find the statues of his gods.

³⁶ Jacob was very angry with Laban. “What is my crime?” he asked. “What have I done to you that you hunt me down like this? ³⁷ You have searched through all my things. What have you found that belongs to your family? Put it here in front of your relatives and mine. Let them decide between the two of us.
