22 Y fué dicho á Labán al tercero día como Jacob se había huído.
23 Entonces tomó á sus hermanos consigo, y fué tras él camino de siete días, y alcanzóle en el monte de Galaad.
24 Y vino Dios á Labán Arameo en sueños aquella noche, y le dijo: Guárdate que no hables á Jacob descomedidamente.
25 Alcanzó pues Labán á Jacob, y éste había fijado su tienda en el monte: y Labán plantó[la] con sus hermanos en el monte de Galaad.
26 Y dijo Labán á Jacob: ¿Qué has hecho, que me hurtaste el corazón, y has traído á mis hijas como prisioneras de guerra?
