And now, that thou art leaving, because thy desire is after thy father's house, yet why hast thou stolen my gods? And Jacob answered and said to Laban, Because I was afraid; for I said, Peradventure thou would take by force thy daughters from me. With whomsoever thou findest thy gods, let them not live; before our brethren discern what is thine with me and take it to thee. For Jacob did not know that Rachel had stolen them. read more.
And Laban went into Jacob's tent and into Leah's tent, and into the two maidservants' tents, but he did not find them. Then he went out of Leah's tent and came to Rachel's tent. Now Rachel took the images and put them in a camel's saddle and sat upon them. And Laban searched all the tent but did not find them. And she said to her father, Let it not displease my lord that I cannot rise up before thee; for the custom of women is upon me. And he searched, but did not find the images.
