On the third day Laban was told that Jacob had fled.
and he set a distance of three days’ journey between himself and Jacob, while Jacob was pasturing the rest of Laban’s flock.
So he fled with all that he had; starting out he crossed the Euphrates and set his face toward the hill country of Gilead.
So he took his kinsfolk with him and pursued him for seven days until he caught up with him in the hill country of Gilead.
