that/for/because/then/when to_long you_longed

לְבֵ֣ית אָבִ֑יךָ

to/for=what steal DOM gods,my
Alternate translation: “but what is the reason that you stole my gods?”
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.
