“And Laban said to Jacob, What hast thou done, that thou hast stolen away unawares to me, and carried away my daughters, as captives taken with the sword?”
Laban said to Jacob: what have you done? You've deceived me, and you've carried off my daughters like captives in war. The accusation — you've deceived me — is the charge Jacob used against others now turned against him. The application: the person who has practiced deception cannot easily refuse the accusation of being deceived, even when it comes from a greater deceiver.
