Good News Translation

¹⁹ Laban had gone to shear his sheep, and during his absence Rachel stole the household gods that belonged to her father. ²⁰ Jacob deceived Laban by not letting him know that he was leaving. ²¹ He took everything he owned and left in a hurry. He crossed the Euphrates River and started for the hill country of Gilead.
