Genesis 31:30-32

Good News Translation

³⁰ I know that you left because you were so anxious to get back home, but why did you steal my household gods?”

³¹ Jacob answered, “I was afraid, because I thought that you might take your daughters away from me. ³² But if you find that anyone here has your gods, he will be put to death. Here, with our men as witnesses, look for anything that belongs to you and take what is yours.” Jacob did not know that Rachel had stolen Laban's gods.
