Genesis 31:46-49
46JacobH3290 saidH559 to his relativesH251, “GatherH3950 stonesH68.” So they tookH3947 stonesH68 and madeH6213 a heapH1530, and they ateH398 thereH8033 by the heapH1530.
47Now LabanH3837 1calledH7121 it 2Jegar-sahaduthaH3026, but JacobH3290 calledH7121 it 3GaleedH1567.
48LabanH3837 saidH559, “4ThisH2088 heapH1530 is a witnessH5707 betweenH996 5you and me this dayH3117.” ThereforeH5921H3651 it was namedH7121H8034 GaleedH1567,
49and 67MizpahH4709, for he saidH559, “May the LordH3068 keepH6822 watchH6822 betweenH996 8you and me whenH3588 we are 9absentH5641 oneH376 from the otherH7453.
