Have you found anything of yours? Put it here before my relatives and yours, and let them decide between the two of us.I’ve been with you these 20 years. Your ewes and female goats have not miscarried, and I have not eaten the rams from your flock.I did not bring you any of the flock torn by wild beasts; I myself bore the loss. You demanded payment from me for what was stolen by day or by night.There I was— the heat consumed me by day and the frost by night, and sleep fled from my eyes.For 20 years I have worked in your household— 14 years for your two daughters and six years for your flocks— and you have changed my wages 10 times!If the God of my father, the God of Abraham, the Fear of Isaac, had not been with me, certainly now you would have sent me off empty-handed. But God has seen my affliction and my hard work, and He issued His verdict last night.”Then Laban answered Jacob,“ The daughters are my daughters; the sons, my sons; and the flocks, my flocks! Everything you see is mine! But what can I do today for these daughters of mine or for the children they have borne?Come now, let’s make a covenant, you and I. Let it be a witness between the two of us.”So Jacob picked out a stone and set it up as a marker.Then Jacob said to his relatives,“ Gather stones.” And they took stones and made a mound, then ate there by the mound.Laban named the mound Jegar-sahadutha, but Jacob named it Galeed.Then Laban said,“ This mound is a witness between you and me today.” Therefore the place was called Galeedand also Mizpah, for he said,“ May the Lord watch between you and me when we are out of each other’s sight.If you mistreat my daughters or take other wives, though no one is with us, understand that God will be a witness between you and me.”Laban also said to Jacob,“ Look at this mound and the marker I have set up between you and me.This mound is a witness and the marker is a witness that I will not pass beyond this mound to you, and you will not pass beyond this mound and this marker to do me harm.The God of Abraham, and the gods of Nahor— the gods of their father— will judge between us.” And Jacob swore by the Fear of his father Isaac.Then Jacob offered a sacrifice on the mountain and invited his relatives to eat a meal.
