Genesis 31:16-20

Living Bible

¹⁶ The riches God has given you from our father were legally ours and our children’s to begin with! So go ahead and do whatever God has told you to.”

^17-20 So one day while Laban was out shearing sheep, Jacob set his wives and sons on camels, and fled without telling Laban his intentions. He drove the flocks before him—Jacob’s flocks he had gotten there at Paddan-aram—and took everything he owned and started out to return to his father Isaac in the land of Canaan.
