Genesis 31:20-24

20Moreover, Jacob deceived1 Laban the Aramean by not telling him that he was running away. 21So he fled with all his possessions, crossed the Euphrates,2 and headed for the hill country of Gilead.

22On the third day Laban was informed that Jacob had fled. 23So he took his relatives with him, pursued Jacob for seven days, and overtook him in the hill country of Gilead. 24But that night God came to Laban the Aramean in a dream and warned him, “Be careful not to say anything to Jacob, either good or bad.”
