Note 1 topic: writing-quotations
וַיֹּ֤אמֶר לָבָן֙ לְיַעֲקֹ֔ב
and=he/it_said Lāⱱān to,Jacob
See how you translated a similar quote margin in 29:25, when the roles were reversed and Jacob confronted Laban. Alternate translation: “Then the next day Laban came to Jacob and complained to Jacob” or “The next day Laban met with Jacob and rebuked Jacob and said to him,”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
מֶ֣ה עָשִׂ֔יתָ
what? you(ms)_have_done/made
Laban uses a rhetorical question here to express his anger at Jacob. Do what is best in your language to communicate that. Alternate translation: “Why have you done this?” or “What you have done is wrong!”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
וַתִּגְנֹ֖ב אֶת לְבָבִ֑י
and,deceived DOM heart_of,me
See how you translated the idiom “stole the heart of” in verse 20. Alternate translation: “You have tricked me” or “You have acted deceitfully toward me”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / hyperbole
וַתְּנַהֵג֙ אֶת בְּנֹתַ֔י
and,carried_off DOM daughters,my
Laban uses exaggeration to show he is angry and to try to make Jacob feel guilty for what he did. Alternate translation: “and dragged away my daughters with you” or “and forced my daughters to leave with you”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / simile
כִּשְׁבֻי֖וֹת חָֽרֶב
like,captives sword
Alternate translation: “as if you had captured them in battle!”
31:25-30 The dispute between the two men used the language of legal controversies and lawsuits (see also 31:36). In his first argument, Laban presented himself as a wounded party that Jacob had robbed.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
