Genesis 31:19

וְ לָבָן הָלַךְ לִ גְזֹז אֶת צֹאנֹו וַ תִּגְנֹב רָחֵל אֶת הַ תְּרָפִים אֲשֶׁר לְ אָבִיהָ
And White has walked to cut off1003 אֶת-his sheep, and Ewe is stealing אֶת-the Teraphim1004 which are to her father.

Strong’s #8655, teraphim. Plural from rapha'; a healer; Teraphim (singular or plural) a family idol -- idols(-atry), images, teraphim. Teraphim is used of actual people:

For the Teraphim have spoken a sorrow, Diviners have beheld a falsehood, and vain dreams they are speaking, a vapor they are consoling upon an upright, they have plucked up as when sheep are being humbled for there is not one-who-tends.”
