43 Then Laban answered and said to Jacob, “The daughters are my daughters and the grandsonsn are my grandsons,o and the flocks are my flocks, and all that you see, it is mine. Now, what can I do for these my daughters today, or for their children whom they have borne? 44 So now, come, let us ⌊make⌋p a covenant, you and I, and let it be a witness between me and you.” 45 And Jacob took a stone and set it up as a stone pillar. 46 And Jacob said to his kinsmen, “Gather stones.” And they took stones and made a pile of stones, and they ate there by the pile of stones. 47 And Laban called it Jegar Sahadutha,q but Jacob called it Galeed.r 48 Then Laban said, “This pile of stones is a witness between me and you today.” Therefore its name is called Galeed,s 49 and Mizpah,t because he said, “Yahweh watch between me and you when ⌊we are out of sight of each other⌋.u 50 If you mistreat my daughters, and if you take wives besides my daughters, when there is no man with us, see—God is a witness between me and you.” 51 And Laban said to Jacob, “See, this pile of stones, and see the pillar that I have set up between me and you. 52 This pile of stones is a witness, and the pillar is a witness, that I will not pass beyond this pile of stones to you, and that you will not pass beyond this pile of stones and this pillar to me intending harm. 53 May the God of Abraham and the God of Nahor, the God of their fatherv judge between us.” Then Jacob swore by the Fear of his father Isaac. 54 And Jacob sacrificed a sacrifice on the hill, and he called his kinsmen to eat the meal.w And they ate the mealx and spent the night on the hill. 55y And Laban arose early in the morning and kissed his grandsonsz and his daughters, and blessed them.
