In context

24But that night God came to Laban the Aramean in a dream and warned him, “Be careful not to say anything to Jacob, either good or bad.”

25Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the hill country of Gilead when Laban overtook him, and Laban and his relatives camped there as well.

26Then Laban said to Jacob, “What have you done? You have deceived me and carried off my daughters like captives of war!

27Why did you run away secretly and deceive me, without even telling me? I would have sent you away with joy and singing, with tambourines and harps.

28But you did not even let me kiss my grandchildren and my daughters goodbye. Now you have done a foolish thing.
