Genesis 31:30-35

30And nowH6258 that thou must needs be goneH1980, because thou greatly longedst after thy father's houseH1004, whyH4100 hast thou stolenH1589 my 1godsH430?

31And JacobH3290 answered and saidH559 to LabanH3837, I was afraidH3372; for I saidH559, LestH6435 thou shouldest take by force thy daughtersH1323 from me.

32With whomsoever thou findest thy 2godsH430, he shall not liveH2421. Before our brethren discern what is thine with me, and takeH3947 [it] to thee. But JacobH3290 did not knowH3045 that RachelH7354 had stolenH1589 them.

33And LabanH3837 wentH3318 into Jacob's tentH168, and into Leah's tentH168, and into the twoH8147 handmaids' tentsH168, and foundH4672 nothing; and he wentH3318 out of Leah's tentH168, and entered into Rachel's tentH168.

34Now RachelH7354 had takenH3947 the teraphimH8655 and putH7760 them under the camel's saddle; and she satH3427 upon them. And LabanH3837 explored all the tentH168, but foundH4672 nothing.

35And she saidH559 to her fatherH1, Let it not be an occasion of anger in the eyesH5869 of my lordH113 that I cannot riseH6965 up before thee, for it is with me after the manner of womenH802. And he searchedH2664 carefully, but did not findH4672 the teraphimH8655.
