Genesis 31:20 in Context — Genesis 31
18 Il emmena tout son troupeau et tous les biens qu’il possédait, le troupeau qui lui appartenait, qu’il avait acquis à Paddan-Aram; et il s’en alla vers Isaac, son père, au pays de Canaan.
19 Tandis que Laban était allé tondre ses brebis, Rachel déroba les théraphim de son père;
20 et Jacob trompa Laban, l’Araméen, en ne l’avertissant pas de sa fuite.
21 Il s’enfuit, avec tout ce qui lui appartenait; il se leva, traversa le fleuve, et se dirigea vers la montagne de Galaad.
22 Le troisième jour, on annonça à Laban que Jacob s’était enfui.
