Genesis 31:24

Gen. 31:24. "Good or bad." i.e., Say nothing at all to him to compel him, to oblige him to return again, or to bring him again under thy service, or to oblige him to resign to thee any of his wives, or cattle, or substance. Say nothing that has such a tendency, or with any such view, whether it seem right and just to you or wrong, good or evil. I leave not you to judge of the rightness of what you shall say with this view, but charge thee to say nothing at all in the least to infringe on his liberty or his possessions. Laban came out after Jacob with such intentions, and he was now meditating what he would say to this purpose. His head was exceeding full of matter, but God charges him to suppress all, and not say one word tending to the design on which he was pursuing Jacob, however right and reasonable it might appear to him. God knew the heart of Laban, and He speaks to his heart. He knew how ready he would be to plead that the design he was upon was just, and that what he had meditated to say to Jacob was good and just. But God prevents him, by charging him to say nothing to the purpose he was pursuing, let it be good or bad.
