And the Lord departed, when He left off speaking to Abraham, and Abraham returned to his place.

And Laban rose up in the morning, and kissed his sons and his daughters, and blessed them; and Laban, having turned back, departed to his place.

And Abraham said to him, See that you do not carry my son back there.

The Lord, the God of heaven, and the God of the earth, who took me out of my father's house, and out of the land from which I sprang, who spoke to me, and who swore to me, saying, I will give this land to you and to your seed, He shall send His angel before you, and you shall take a wife to my son from there.

And indeed if they had remembered that land from which they went out, they would have had opportunity to turn back.

But now they desire a better [land], that is, a heavenly [one]. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.
