Genesis 31:26 in Context — Genesis 31
24 Mais Dieu apparut la nuit en songe à Laban, l’Araméen, et lui dit: Garde-toi de parler à Jacob ni en bien ni en mal!
25 Laban atteignit donc Jacob. Jacob avait dressé sa tente sur la montagne; Laban dressa aussi la sienne, avec ses frères, sur la montagne de Galaad.
26 Alors Laban dit à Jacob: Qu’as-tu fait? Pourquoi m’as-tu trompé, et emmènes-tu mes filles comme des captives par l’épée?
27 Pourquoi as-tu pris la fuite en cachette, m’as-tu trompé, et ne m’as-tu point averti? Je t’aurais laissé partir au milieu des réjouissances et des chants, au son du tambourin et de la harpe.
28 Tu ne m’as pas permis d’embrasser mes fils et mes filles! C’est en insensé que tu as agi.
