01:031:042 Except the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the
fear of Isaac, had been with me, surely thou hadst sent me away now
empty. God hath seen mine affliction and the labour of my hands, and
rebuked thee yesternight.
01:031:043 And Laban answered and said unto Jacob, These daughters are
my daughters, and these children are my children, and these cattle are
my cattle, and all that thou seest is mine: and what can I do this day
unto these my daughters, or unto their children which they have born?
01:031:044 Now therefore come thou, let us make a covenant, I and thou;
and let it be for a witness between me and thee.
01:031:045 And Jacob took a stone, and set it up for a pillar.
01:031:046 And Jacob said unto his brethren, Gather stones; and they
took stones, and made an heap: and they did eat there upon the heap.
01:031:047 And Laban called it Jegarsahadutha: but Jacob called it
Galeed.
01:031:048 And Laban said, This heap is a witness between me and thee
this day. Therefore was the name of it called Galeed;
01:031:049 And Mizpah; for he said, The LORD watch between me and thee,
when we are absent one from another.
01:031:050 If thou shalt afflict my daughters, or if thou shalt take
other wives beside my daughters, no man is with us; see, God is witness
betwixt me and thee.
01:031:051 And Laban said to Jacob, Behold this heap, and behold this
pillar, which I have cast betwixt me and thee:
01:031:052 This heap be witness, and this 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.
01:031:053 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.
01:031:054 Then Jacob offered sacrifice upon the mount, and called his
brethren to eat bread: and they did eat bread, and tarried all night in
the mount.
01:031:055 And early in the morning Laban rose up, and kissed his sons
and his daughters, and blessed them: and Laban departed, and returned
unto his place.
01:032:001 And Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him.
01:032:002 And when Jacob saw them, he said, This is God's host: and he
called the name of that place Mahanaim.
01:032:003 And Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother
unto the land of Seir, the country of Edom.
01:032:004 And he commanded them, saying, Thus shall ye speak unto my
lord Esau; Thy servant Jacob saith thus, I have sojourned with Laban,
and stayed there until now:
01:032:005 And I have oxen, and asses, flocks, and menservants, and
womenservants: and I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find grace
in thy sight.
01:032:006 And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, We came to thy
brother Esau, and also he cometh to meet thee, and four hundred men
with him.
