Genesis 31:18 · BSB
The verses around it, from Genesis 31.
14 And Rachel and Leah replied, “Do we have any portion or inheritance left in our father’s house?
15 Are we not regarded by him as outsiders? Not only has he sold us, but he has certainly squandered what was paid for us.
16 Surely all the wealth that God has taken away from our father belongs to us and to our children. So do whatever God has told you.”

22 On the third day Laban was informed that Jacob had fled.
