Genesis 31:27-29
1599 Geneva Bible
27 Wherefore diddest thou flee so secretly and steal away from me, and diddest not tell me, that I might have sent thee forth with mirth and with songs, with timbrell and with harp?
28 But thou hast not suffered me to kiss my sons and my daughters: now thou hast done foolishly in doing so.
29 I am [a]able to do you evil: but the [b]God of your father spake unto me yesternight, saying, Take heed that thou speak not to Jacob ought save good.
