Genesis 31:21-25

21So he left in a hurry with all that belonged to him. He crossed the Euphrates River and went toward the mountains of Gilead.

22Two days later Laban was told that Jacob had left in a hurry.

23He and his relatives pursued Jacob for seven days. Laban caught up with him in the mountains of Gilead.

24God came to Laban the Aramean in a dream at night and said to him, “Be careful not to say anything at all to Jacob.”

25When Laban finally caught up with Jacob, Jacob had put up his tents in the mountains. So Laban and his relatives put up their tents in the mountains of Gilead.
