Genesis:31:42-49

*
Except the God of my father ,
the God of Abraham ,
and the fear of Isaac ,
had been with me ,
surely thou hadst sent me away now empty .
God hath seen mine affliction and the labour of my hands ,
and rebuked thee yesternight .
*
And Laban answered and said unto Jacob ,
These daughters are my daughters ,
and these children are my children ,
and these cattle are my cattle ,
and all that thou seest is mine :
and what can I do this day unto these my daughters ,
or unto their children which they have born ?
*
Now therefore come thou ,
let us make a covenant ,
I and thou ;
and let it be for a witness between me and thee .
*
And Jacob took a stone ,
and set it up for a pillar .
*
And Jacob said unto his brethren ,
Gather stones ;
and they took stones ,
and made an heap :
and they did eat there upon the heap .
*
And Laban called it Jegarsahadutha :
but Jacob called it Galeed .
*
And Laban said ,
This heap is a witness between me and thee this day .
Therefore was the name of it called Galeed ;
*
And Mizpah ;
for he said ,
The LORD watch between me and thee ,
when we are absent one from another .
