Then Jacob rose up, and set his sons and his wives on the camels,

וַיָּ֖קָם (וַ) va “and”וַיִּשָּׂ֛א (וַ) va “and”

and he carried away all his cattle, and all his substance which he had gathered, the cattle of his getting, which he had gathered in Paddan Aram, to go to Isaac his father to the land of Canaan.

וַיִּנְהַ֣ג (וַ) va “and”

Now Laban had gone to shear his sheep: and Rachel stole the teraphim that were her father's.

וַתִּגְנֹ֣ב (וַ) va. “and”

Jacob deceived Laban the Syrian, in that he didn't tell him that he was running away.

וַיִּגְנֹ֣ב (וַ) va “and”

So he fled with all that he had. He rose up, passed over the River, and set his face toward the mountain of Gilead.

Laban was told on the third day that Jacob had fled.

He took his relatives with him, and pursued after him seven days' journey. He overtook him in the mountain of Gilead.

וַיִּקַּ֤ח (וַ) va “and”וַיִּרְדֹּ֣ף (וַ) va “and”וַיַּדְבֵּ֥ק (וַ) va “and”

God came to Laban, the Syrian, in a dream of the night, and said to him, "Take heed to yourself that you don't speak to Jacob either good or bad."

וַיָּבֹ֧א (וַ) va “and”וַיֹּ֣אמֶר (וַ) va “and”

Laban caught up with Jacob. Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mountain, and Laban with his relatives encamped in the mountain of Gilead.

וַיַּשֵּׂ֥ג (וַ) va “and”

Laban said to Jacob, "What have you done, that you have deceived me, and carried away my daughters like captives of the sword?

וַיֹּ֤אמֶר (וַ) va “and”וַתִּגְנֹ֖ב (וַ) va. “and”וַתְּנַהֵג֙ (וַ) va. “and”

Why did you flee secretly, and deceive me, and didn't tell me, that I might have sent you away with mirth and with songs, with tambourine and with harp;

וַתִּגְנֹ֖ב (וַ) va. “and”וָֽאֲשַׁלֵּחֲךָ֛ (וָֽ) va. “and”

Jacob answered Laban, "Because I was afraid, for I said, 'Lest you should take your daughters from me by force.'

וַיַּ֥עַן (וַ) va “and”וַיֹּ֣אמֶר (וַ) va “and”

Laban went into Jacob's tent, into Leah's tent, and into the tent of the two maid-servants; but he didn't find them. He went out of Leah's tent, and entered into Rachel's tent.

וַיָּבֹ֨א (וַ) va “and”וַיֵּצֵא֙ (וַ) va “and”וַיָּבֹ֖א (וַ) va “and”

Now Rachel had taken the teraphim, put them in the camel's saddle, and sat on them. Laban felt about all the tent, but didn't find them.

וַתְּשִׂמֵ֛ם (וַ) va. “and”וַתֵּ֣שֶׁב (וַ) va. “and”וַיְמַשֵּׁ֥שׁ (וַ) va “and”

She said to her father, "Don't let my lord be angry that I can't rise up before you; for the manner of women is on me." He searched, but didn't find the teraphim.

וַתֹּ֣אמֶר (וַ) va. “and”וַיְחַפֵּ֕שׂ (וַ) va “and”

Jacob was angry, and argued with Laban. Jacob answered Laban, "What is my trespass? What is my sin, that you have hotly pursued after me?

וַיִּ֥חַר (וַ) va “and”וַיָּ֣רֶב (וַ) va “and”וַיַּ֤עַן (וַ) va “and”וַיֹּ֣אמֶר (וַ) va “and”

Thus I was; in the day the drought consumed me, and the frost by night; and my sleep fled from my eyes.

וַתִּדַּ֥ד (וַ) va. “and”

These twenty years have I been in your house. I served you fourteen years for your two daughters, and six years for your flock, and you have changed my wages ten times.

וַתַּחֲלֵ֥ף (וַ) va. “and”

Unless the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the fear of Isaac, had been with me, surely now you would have sent me away empty. God has seen my affliction and the labor of my hands, and rebuked you last night."

וַיּ֥וֹכַח (וַ) va “and”

Laban answered Jacob, "The daughters are my daughters, the children are my children, the flocks are my flocks, and all that you see is mine: and what can I do this day to these my daughters, or to their children whom they have borne?

וַיַּ֨עַן (וַ) va “and”וַיֹּ֣אמֶר (וַ) va “and”

Now come, let us make a covenant, you and I; and let it be for a witness between me and you."

Jacob took a stone, and set it up for a pillar.

וַיִּקַּ֥ח (וַ) va “and”וַיְרִימֶ֖הָ (וַ) va “and”

Jacob said to his relatives, "Gather stones." They took stones, and made a heap. They ate there by the heap.

Laban called it Jegar Sahadutha, but Jacob called it Galeed.

וַיִּקְרָא־ (וַ) va “and”

Laban said, "This heap is witness between me and you this day." Therefore it was named Galeed
