43 And Laban answered and said unto Jacob: 'The daughters are my daughters, and the children are my children, and the flocks are my flocks, and all that thou seest is mine; and what can I do this day for these my daughters, or for their children whom they have borne?

44 And now come, let us make a covenant, I and thou; and let it be for a witness between me and thee.'

45 And Jacob took a stone, and set it up for a pillar.

46 And Jacob said unto his brethren: 'Gather stones'; and they took stones, and made a heap. And they did eat there by the heap.

47 And Laban called it Jegar-sahadutha; but Jacob called it Galeed.
