Then Jacob was angry and rebuked Laban, and Jacob answered and said to Laban:“ What is my trespass? What is my sin, that you have so hotly pursued me?Although you have searched all my things, what part of your household things have you found? Set it here before my brethren and your brethren, that they may judge between us both!These twenty years I have been with you; your ewes and your female goats have not miscarried their young, and I have not eaten the rams of your flock.That which was torn by beasts I did not bring to you; I bore the loss of it. You required it from my hand, whether stolen by day or stolen by night.There I was! In the day the drought consumed me, and the frost by night, and my sleep departed from my eyes.Thus I have been in your house twenty years; I served you fourteen years for your two daughters, and six years for your flock, and you have changed my wages ten times.Unless the God of my father, the God of Abraham and the Fear of Isaac, had been with me, surely now you would have sent me away empty-handed. God has seen my affliction and the labor of my hands, and rebuked you last night.”And Laban answered and said to Jacob,“ These daughters are my daughters, and these children are my children, and this flock is my flock; all that you see is mine. But what can I do this day to these my daughters or to their children whom they have borne?Now therefore, come, let us make a covenant, you and I, and let it be a witness between you and me.”So Jacob took a stone and set it up as a pillar.Then Jacob said to his brethren,“ Gather stones.” And they took stones and made a heap, and they ate there on the heap.Laban called it Jegar Sahadutha, but Jacob called it Galeed.And Laban said,“ This heap is a witness between you and me this day.” Therefore its name was called Galeed,also Mizpah, because he said,“ May the Lord watch between you and me when we are absent one from another.If you afflict my daughters, or if you take other wives besides my daughters, although no man is with us— see, God is witness between you and me!”Then Laban said to Jacob,“ Here is this heap and here is this pillar, which I have placed between you and me.This heap is a witness, and this pillar is a witness, that I will not pass beyond this heap to you, and you will not pass beyond this heap and this pillar to me, for harm.The God of Abraham, the God of Nahor, and the God of their father judge between us.” And Jacob swore by the Fear of his father Isaac.Then Jacob offered a sacrifice on the mountain, and called his brethren to eat bread. And they ate bread and stayed all night on the mountain.And early in the morning Laban arose, and kissed his sons and daughters and blessed them. Then Laban departed and returned to his place.
