Genesis 31:28

28 Why didn’t you let me kiss my daughters and grandchildren and tell them good-bye? You have acted very foolishly!

Genesis 31:28 In-Context

26 “What do you mean by deceiving me like this?” Laban demanded. “How dare you drag my daughters away like prisoners of war?
27 Why did you slip away secretly? Why did you deceive me? And why didn’t you say you wanted to leave? I would have given you a farewell feast, with singing and music, accompanied by tambourines and harps.
28 Why didn’t you let me kiss my daughters and grandchildren and tell them good-bye? You have acted very foolishly!
29 I could destroy you, but the God of your father appeared to me last night and warned me, ‘Leave Jacob alone!’
30 I can understand your feeling that you must go, and your intense longing for your father’s home. But why have you stolen my gods?”
