Genesis 31:27-29
Lexham English Bible
27 Why did you hide your intention to flee and trick me,[a] and did not tell me so that I would have sent you away with joy and song and tambourine and lyre? 28 And why did you not give me opportunity to kiss my grandsons[b] and my daughters goodbye? Now you have behaved foolishly by doing this. 29 It is in my power[c] to do harm to you, but the God of your father spoke to me last night saying, ‘Take care[d] from speaking with Jacob, whether good or evil.’
