Genesis 31:49-53
49It was also called Mizpah because he said, “May the Lord watch between us when we are out of sight of one another.
50If you mistreat my daughters or if you take wives besides my daughters, although no one else is with us, realize that God is witness to your actions.”
51“Here is this pile of stones and this pillar I have set up between me and you,” Laban said to Jacob.
52“This pile of stones and the pillar are reminders that I will not pass beyond this pile to come to harm you and that you will not pass beyond this pile and this pillar to come to harm me.
53May the God of Abraham and the god of Nahor, the gods of their father, judge between us.” Jacob took an oath by the God whom his father Isaac feared.
