Genesis 31:46-53 American Standard Version (ASV)

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-saha-dutha: but Jacob called it Galeed.

48. And Laban said, This heap is witness between me and thee this day. Therefore was the name of it called Galeed:

49. and Mizpah, for he said, Jehovah watch between me and thee, when we are absent one from another.

50. If thou shalt afflict my daughters, and if thou shalt take wives besides my daughters, no man is with us; see, God is witness betwixt me and thee.

51. And Laban said to Jacob, Behold this heap, and behold the pillar, which I have set betwixt me and thee.

52. This heap be witness, and the pillar be witness, that I will not pass over this heap to thee, and that thou shalt not pass over this heap and this pillar unto me, for harm.

53. The God of Abraham, and the God of Nahor, the God of their father, judge betwixt us. And Jacob sware by the Fear of his father Isaac.
