Genesis 31:46-49
46Jacob said to his relatives, “Gather stones.” And they took stones and made a mound [of stones], and they ate [a ceremonial meal together] there on the mound [of stones].
47Laban called it Jegar-sahadutha (stone monument of testimony in Aramaic), but Jacob called it Galeed.
48Laban said, “This mound [of stones] is a witness [a reminder of the oath taken] today between you and me.” Therefore he [also] called the name Galeed,
49and Mizpah (watchtower), for Laban said, “May the Lord watch between you and me when we are absent from one another.
