21So he fledH1272 with all that he had; and he rose upH6965, and passed overH5674 the riverH5104, and setH7760 his faceH6440 toward the mountH2022 GileadH1568. 22And it was toldH5046 LabanH3837 on the thirdH7992 dayH3117 that JacobH3290 was fledH1272. 23And he tookH3947 his brethrenH251 with him, and pursuedH7291 after himH310 sevenH7651 days’H3117 journeyH1870; and they overtookH1692 him in the mountH2022 GileadH1568. 24And GodH430 cameH935 to LabanH3837 the SyrianH761 in a dreamH2472 by nightH3915, and saidH559 unto him, Take heedH8104 that thou speakH1696 not toH5973 JacobH3290 either goodH2896 orH5704 badH7451.1
