Genesis 31:28
World English Bible (WEB)
and didn’t allow me to kiss my sons and my daughters? Now you have done foolishly.
In context
26 Laban said to Jacob, “What have you done, that you have deceived me, and carried away my daughters like captives of the sword?
27 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;
28 and didn’t allow me to kiss my sons and my daughters? Now you have done foolishly.
29 It is in the power of my hand to hurt you, but the God of your father spoke to me last night, saying, ‘Be careful that you don’t speak to Jacob either good or bad.’
30 Now, you want to be gone, because you greatly longed for your father’s house, but why have you stolen my gods?”
