30 And now you have surely gone because you greatly long for your father’s house, but why did you asteal my gods?”
31 Then Jacob answered and said to Laban, “Because I was aafraid, for I said, ‘Perhaps you would take your daughters from me by force.’
32 With whomever you find your gods, ado not let him live. In the presence of our brethren, identify what I have of yours and take it with you.” For Jacob did not know that Rachel had stolen them.
33 And Laban went into Jacob’s tent, into Leah’s tent, and into the two maids’ tents, but he did not find them. Then he went out of Leah’s tent and entered Rachel’s tent.
34 Now Rachel had taken the1 household idols, put them in the camel’s saddle, and sat on them. And Laban searched all about the tent but did not find them.
