Genesis 31:46-49

46And Jacob said to his brethren, Gather stones; and they took stones, and made an heap: and they ate there upon the heap. 47And Laban called it Jegarsahadutha: but Jacob called it Galeed.1 2 48And Laban said, This heap is a witness between me and thee this day. Therefore was the name of it called Galeed; 49And Mizpah; for he said, The LORD watch between me and thee, when we are absent one from another.3
