1 Now|strong="H2088" Jacob|strong="H3290" heard|strong="H8085" Laban|strong="H3837"’s sons|strong="H1121" say|strong="H1697", ‘Jacob|strong="H3290" has|strong="H1697" taken|strong="H3947" all|strong="H3605" that|strong="H3605" was|strong="H1697" our|strong="H3605" father|strong="H1121"’s, and|strong="H1121" from|strong="H8085" that|strong="H3605" which|strong="H1697" was|strong="H1697" our|strong="H3605" father|strong="H1121"’s he|strong="H6213" has|strong="H1697" acquired|strong="H6213" all|strong="H3605" these|strong="H2088" riches|strong="H3519".’
2 Now|strong="H2009" Jacob|strong="H3290" observed|strong="H7200" that|strong="H7200" Laban|strong="H3837" was|strong="H3290" not|strong="H7200" so|strong="H7200" favourably inclined to|strong="H6440" him|strong="H6440" as|strong="H6440" formerly|strong="H6440".
3 The|strong="H3068" \+w Lord|strong="H3068"\+w* said to|strong="H7725" Jacob|strong="H3290", ‘Return|strong="H7725" to|strong="H7725" the|strong="H3068" land of|strong="H3068" your|strong="H3068" ancestors, and|strong="H3068" to|strong="H7725" your|strong="H3068" relatives|strong="H4138", and|strong="H3068" I|strong="H3068" will|strong="H3068" be|strong="H1961" with|strong="H5973" you|strong="H7725".’
4 Then|strong="H7971" Jacob|strong="H3290" sent|strong="H7971" for|strong="H7121" Rachel|strong="H7354" and|strong="H7971" Leah|strong="H3812" to|strong="H7971" come|strong="H7971" to|strong="H7971" the|strong="H7121" field|strong="H7704" where his|strong="H7121" flocks|strong="H6629" were|strong="H6629",
5 and|strong="H6440" said to|strong="H1961" them|strong="H6440", ‘I|strong="H3588" see|strong="H7200" that|strong="H3588" your|strong="H6440" father is|strong="H1961" not|strong="H1961" so|strong="H1961" favourably inclined toward|strong="H6440" me|strong="H6440" as|strong="H1961" formerly|strong="H6440"; but|strong="H3588" the|strong="H6440" God of|strong="H6440" my|strong="H7200" father has|strong="H1961" been|strong="H1961" with|strong="H6440" me|strong="H6440".
6 You|strong="H3588" know|strong="H3045" that|strong="H3588" I|strong="H3588" have|strong="H3045" served|strong="H5647" your|strong="H3605" father with|strong="H3045" all|strong="H3605" my|strong="H3605" strength|strong="H3581".
7 Your|strong="H5414" father, however, has|strong="H7489" deceived|strong="H2048" me|strong="H5414" and|strong="H3808" changed|strong="H2498" my|strong="H5414" wages|strong="H4909" ten|strong="H6235" times|strong="H4489"; but|strong="H3808" God|strong="H5414" has|strong="H7489" not|strong="H3808" allowed|strong="H5414" him|strong="H5414" to|strong="H5414" do|strong="H7489" me|strong="H5414" harm|strong="H7489".
8 If|strong="H1961" your|strong="H3605" father|strong="H3205" said, “The|strong="H3605" speckled|strong="H5348" will|strong="H1961" be|strong="H1961" your|strong="H3605" wages|strong="H7939",” then|strong="H1961" all|strong="H3605" the|strong="H3605" flock|strong="H6629" bore|strong="H3205" speckled|strong="H5348" offspring, but|strong="H1961" if|strong="H1961" he|strong="H3605" said: “The|strong="H3605" striped|strong="H6124" will|strong="H1961" be|strong="H1961" your|strong="H3605" wages|strong="H7939",” then|strong="H1961" all|strong="H3605" the|strong="H3605" flock|strong="H6629" have|strong="H1961" striped|strong="H6124" offspring.
9 God|strong="H5414" has|strong="H5414" taken|strong="H5337" away|strong="H5337" the|strong="H5414" possessions|strong="H4735" of|strong="H4735" your|strong="H5414" father and|strong="H4735" given|strong="H5414" them|strong="H5414" to|strong="H5414" me|strong="H5414".
10 At|strong="H5921" the|strong="H5921" time|strong="H6256" when|strong="H1961" the|strong="H5921" flock|strong="H6629" breed, I|strong="H2009" looked|strong="H7200" up|strong="H5927", and|strong="H5869" saw|strong="H7200" in|strong="H5921" a|strong="H3068" dream|strong="H2472", that|strong="H7200" the|strong="H5921" male|strong="H6260" goats|strong="H6260" which|strong="H5869" were|strong="H1961" mating|strong="H3179" were|strong="H1961" striped|strong="H6124", speckled|strong="H5348", and|strong="H5869" piebald.
11 The|strong="H2009" messenger|strong="H4397" of|strong="H4397" God said to|strong="H4397" me|strong="H2472" in|strong="H3290" a|strong="H3068" dream|strong="H2472", “Jacob|strong="H3290"!” and|strong="H3290" I|strong="H2009" said, “Here|strong="H2009" I|strong="H2009" am.”
12 And|strong="H5869" he|strong="H3588" said, “Look|strong="H7200"! All|strong="H3605" the|strong="H3605" male|strong="H6260" goats|strong="H6260" which|strong="H5869" are|strong="H5869" mating|strong="H5927" are|strong="H5869" striped|strong="H6124", speckled|strong="H5348", and|strong="H5869" piebald: for|strong="H3588" I|strong="H3588" have|strong="H5869" seen|strong="H7200" all|strong="H3605" that|strong="H3588" Laban|strong="H3837" has|strong="H3588" been|strong="H5927" doing|strong="H6213" to|strong="H5927" you|strong="H3588".
13 I|strong="H6258" am the|strong="H4480" God|strong="H1008" of|strong="H4480" Bethel|strong="H1008", where|strong="H8033" you|strong="H7725" anointed|strong="H4886" a|strong="H3068" pillar|strong="H4676" of|strong="H4480" stone, where|strong="H8033" you|strong="H7725" made|strong="H5087" a|strong="H3068" vow|strong="H5088" to|strong="H7725" me|strong="H7725". Now|strong="H6258" arise|strong="H6965", leave|strong="H3318" this|strong="H2063" land, and|strong="H6965" return|strong="H7725" to|strong="H7725" the|strong="H4480" land where|strong="H8033" you|strong="H7725" were|strong="H3318" born|strong="H4138".”’
14 Then|strong="H6030" Rachel|strong="H7354" and|strong="H6030" Leah|strong="H3812" answered|strong="H6030" him|strong="H6030", ‘There is|strong="H1004" no|strong="H2506" longer|strong="H5750" any|strong="H5750" inheritance|strong="H5159" for|strong="H1004" us|strong="H6030" in|strong="H1004" our|strong="H5750" father’s house|strong="H1004".
15 Are|strong="H1571" we|strong="H3068" not|strong="H3808" considered|strong="H2803" as|strong="H2803" foreigners|strong="H5237" by|strong="H1571" him|strong="H2803"? For|strong="H3588" he|strong="H3588" has|strong="H3588" sold|strong="H4376" us|strong="H3588" and|strong="H3701" goes on|strong="H1571" to|strong="H2803" consume the|strong="H3588" money|strong="H3701" paid for|strong="H3588" us|strong="H3588".
16 Since|strong="H3588" all|strong="H3605" the|strong="H3605" riches|strong="H6239" which|strong="H1931" God has|strong="H3588" taken|strong="H5337" away|strong="H5337" from|strong="H1121" our|strong="H3605" father|strong="H1121" is|strong="H1931" ours and|strong="H1121" our|strong="H3605" children|strong="H1121"’s, do|strong="H6213" whatever|strong="H3605" God has|strong="H3588" told|strong="H6213" you|strong="H3588" to|strong="H6213" do|strong="H6213".’
17 Then|strong="H6965" Jacob|strong="H3290" rose|strong="H6965" up|strong="H6965" and|strong="H1121" put|strong="H5375" his|strong="H5375" sons|strong="H1121" and|strong="H1121" his|strong="H5375" wives on|strong="H5921" camels|strong="H1581",
18 and|strong="H3327" drove|strong="H5090" away|strong="H5090" all|strong="H3605" his|strong="H3605" cattle|strong="H4735" and|strong="H3327" all|strong="H3605" the|strong="H3605" cattle|strong="H4735" which|strong="H7399" he|strong="H3605" had|strong="H3327" acquired|strong="H7408" in|strong="H7408" Paddan-aram|strong="H6307", in|strong="H7408" order to|strong="H3605" go to|strong="H3605" Isaac|strong="H3327" his|strong="H3605" father, to|strong="H3605" the|strong="H3605" land of|strong="H3605" Canaan|strong="H3667".
19 And|strong="H1980" while Laban|strong="H3837" was|strong="H6629" gone|strong="H1980" to|strong="H1980" shear|strong="H1494" his|strong="H1494" sheep|strong="H6629", Rachel|strong="H7354" stole|strong="H1589" the|strong="H1980" household|strong="H8655" gods|strong="H1980" that|strong="H6629" were|strong="H6629" her|strong="H1980" father’s.
20 So|strong="H3588" Jacob|strong="H3290" deceived|strong="H1589" Laban|strong="H3837" the|strong="H5921" Aramean – he|strong="H1931" did|strong="H3820" not|strong="H3588" tell|strong="H5046" him|strong="H5921" that|strong="H3588" he|strong="H1931" was|strong="H3820" going to|strong="H5921" flee|strong="H1272".
21 So|strong="H6965" he|strong="H1931" fled|strong="H1272" with|strong="H6440" all|strong="H3605" he|strong="H1931" had|strong="H7760"; crossing|strong="H5674" the|strong="H3605" river|strong="H5104" Euphrates|strong="H5104" heading towards the|strong="H3605" hill-country of|strong="H2022" Gilead|strong="H1568".
22 When|strong="H3588" it|strong="H3588" was|strong="H3117" reported|strong="H5046" to|strong="H3117" Laban|strong="H3837" on|strong="H3117" the|strong="H3588" third|strong="H7992" day|strong="H3117" that|strong="H3588" Jacob|strong="H3290" had|strong="H3588" fled|strong="H1272",
23 he|strong="H3117" took|strong="H3947" his|strong="H3947" tribesmen with|strong="H5973" him|strong="H5973", and|strong="H3117" pursued|strong="H7291" him|strong="H5973" for|strong="H3117" seven|strong="H7651" days|strong="H3117", and|strong="H3117" overtook|strong="H1692" him|strong="H5973" in|strong="H3117" the|strong="H3947" hill|strong="H2022" country|strong="H2022" of|strong="H3117" Gilead|strong="H1568".
24 But|strong="H1696" God came|strong="H7451" to|strong="H1696" Laban|strong="H3837" the|strong="H8104" Aramean in|strong="H1696" a|strong="H3068" dream|strong="H2472" at|strong="H5704" night|strong="H3915", and|strong="H3915" said|strong="H1696" to|strong="H1696" him|strong="H5973", ‘Take|strong="H8104" care|strong="H8104" that|strong="H7451" you|strong="H5704" do|strong="H8104" not|strong="H6435" speak|strong="H1696" to|strong="H1696" Jacob|strong="H3290" either|strong="H3290" good|strong="H2896" or|strong="H6435" bad|strong="H7451".’
25 When|strong="H8628" Laban|strong="H3837" caught|strong="H5381" up|strong="H8628" with|strong="H8628" Jacob|strong="H3290", Jacob|strong="H3290" had|strong="H3290" pitched|strong="H8628" his|strong="H3290" tent in|strong="H3290" the|strong="H8628" hill|strong="H2022" country|strong="H2022"; and|strong="H2022" Laban|strong="H3837" with|strong="H8628" his|strong="H3290" relatives encamped in|strong="H3290" same hill|strong="H2022" country|strong="H2022" of|strong="H2022" Gilead|strong="H1568".
26 Laban|strong="H3837" said to|strong="H6213" Jacob|strong="H3290", ‘What|strong="H4100" have|strong="H1323" you|strong="H6213" done|strong="H6213"? You|strong="H6213" have|strong="H1323" deceived|strong="H1589" me|strong="H6213" and|strong="H2719" carried|strong="H7617" away|strong="H7617" my|strong="H6213" daughters|strong="H1323" like|strong="H6213" captives|strong="H7617" of|strong="H1323" war|strong="H2719"!
27 Why|strong="H4100" did|strong="H4100" you|strong="H7971" flee|strong="H1272" secretly|strong="H2244", stealing|strong="H1589" away|strong="H7971" from|strong="H7971" me|strong="H7971" without|strong="H3808" telling|strong="H5046" me|strong="H7971"? I|strong="H3808" would|strong="H4100" have|strong="H3808" sent|strong="H7971" you|strong="H7971" away|strong="H7971" with|strong="H7971" mirth|strong="H8057" and|strong="H7971" with|strong="H7971" songs|strong="H7892", with|strong="H7971" tambourine|strong="H8596" and|strong="H7971" with|strong="H7971" harp|strong="H3658" –
28 but|strong="H3808" you|strong="H6213" did|strong="H6213" not|strong="H3808" allow|strong="H5203" me|strong="H6213" to|strong="H6213" kiss|strong="H5401" my|strong="H6213" sons|strong="H1121" and|strong="H1121" daughters|strong="H1323". You|strong="H6213" have|strong="H1121" acted|strong="H6213" foolishly|strong="H5528".
29 It|strong="H6213" was|strong="H3290" in|strong="H6213" my|strong="H8104" power|strong="H3027" to|strong="H1696" do|strong="H6213" you|strong="H5704" harm|strong="H7451", but|strong="H1696" the|strong="H6213" God|strong="H3027" of|strong="H3027" your|strong="H8104" father spoke|strong="H1696" to|strong="H1696" me|strong="H6213" last night saying|strong="H1696", “Take|strong="H8104" care|strong="H3027" that|strong="H3027" you|strong="H5704" do|strong="H6213" not|strong="H6213" speak|strong="H1696" to|strong="H1696" Jacob|strong="H3290", neither|strong="H5973" good|strong="H2896" nor|strong="H2896" bad|strong="H7451".”
30 But|strong="H3588" now|strong="H6258", since|strong="H3588" you|strong="H3588" are|strong="H4100" surely|strong="H3588" going|strong="H1980" because|strong="H3588" you|strong="H3588" long|strong="H4100" so|strong="H1980" earnestly for|strong="H3588" your|strong="H3588" father’s house|strong="H1004", why|strong="H4100" have|strong="H6258" you|strong="H3588" stolen|strong="H1589" my|strong="H3588" gods|strong="H1980"?’
31 Jacob|strong="H3290" answered|strong="H6030" Laban|strong="H3837", ‘I|strong="H3588" was|strong="H3290" afraid|strong="H3372", because|strong="H3588" I|strong="H3588" thought you|strong="H3588" would|strong="H3290" take|strong="H1497" your|strong="H3588" daughters|strong="H1323" from|strong="H5973" me|strong="H5973" by|strong="H5973" force|strong="H1497".
32 The|strong="H3588" one|strong="H3808" with|strong="H5973" whom|strong="H3588" you|strong="H3588" find|strong="H4672" your|strong="H3947" gods will|strong="H3808" be|strong="H3808" put|strong="H3947" to|strong="H3045" death; in|strong="H4672" the|strong="H3588" presence|strong="H5048" of|strong="H5048" our|strong="H3947" kinsmen investigate|strong="H3045" for|strong="H3588" yourself|strong="H5973" what|strong="H4100" is|strong="H4100" with|strong="H5973" me|strong="H5978" and|strong="H3045" take|strong="H3947" it|strong="H3588".’ Jacob|strong="H3290" did|strong="H4100" not|strong="H3808" know|strong="H3045" that|strong="H3588" Rachel|strong="H7354" had|strong="H3588" stolen|strong="H1589" Laban’s gods.
33 So|strong="H3808" Laban|strong="H3837" went|strong="H3318" into|strong="H3318" Jacob|strong="H3290"’s tent and|strong="H3318" into|strong="H3318" Leah|strong="H3812"’s, and|strong="H3318" into|strong="H3318" the|strong="H3318" tent of|strong="H3318" the|strong="H3318" two|strong="H8147" slave-girls, but|strong="H3808" he|strong="H8147" did|strong="H3808" not|strong="H3808" find|strong="H4672" his|strong="H3290" gods. Then|strong="H3318" he|strong="H8147" went|strong="H3318" out|strong="H3318" of|strong="H3318" Leah|strong="H3812"’s tent, and|strong="H3318" entered|strong="H3318" Rachel|strong="H7354"’s.
34 Now|strong="H3947" Rachel|strong="H7354" had|strong="H7354" taken|strong="H3947" the|strong="H3605" household|strong="H8655" gods and|strong="H3427" put|strong="H7760" them|strong="H5921" in|strong="H3427" the|strong="H3605" camel|strong="H1581"’s saddle|strong="H3733" and|strong="H3427" was|strong="H3605" sitting|strong="H3427" on|strong="H5921" them|strong="H5921", so|strong="H3947" that|strong="H3605" when|strong="H3427" Laban|strong="H3837" had|strong="H7354" searched|strong="H4959" all|strong="H3605" about|strong="H5921" the|strong="H3605" tent, he|strong="H3605" did|strong="H3808" not|strong="H3808" find|strong="H4672" them|strong="H5921".
35 She|strong="H3588" said to|strong="H3201" her|strong="H4672" father, ‘Do|strong="H3201" not|strong="H3808" be|strong="H3808" angry|strong="H2734" that|strong="H3588" I|strong="H3588" cannot|strong="H3808" rise|strong="H6965" before|strong="H6440" you|strong="H3588", my|strong="H6965" lord, for|strong="H3588" it|strong="H3588" is|strong="H1870" that|strong="H3588" time|strong="H6440" of|strong="H6440" the|strong="H6440" month that|strong="H3588" women have|strong="H5869".’ And|strong="H6965" though|strong="H3588" he|strong="H3588" searched|strong="H2664" thoroughly, he|strong="H3588" did|strong="H3808" not|strong="H3808" find|strong="H4672" the|strong="H6440" household|strong="H8655" gods.
36 Then|strong="H6030" Jacob|strong="H3290" became|strong="H2734" angry|strong="H2734" and|strong="H6030" challenged Laban|strong="H3837". ‘What|strong="H4100" is|strong="H4100" my|strong="H3290" crime?’ he|strong="H3588" said|strong="H6030", ‘What|strong="H4100" is|strong="H4100" my|strong="H3290" offense, that|strong="H3588" you|strong="H3588" have|strong="H2403" pursued|strong="H1814" hotly|strong="H1814" after|strong="H3588" me|strong="H6030"?
37 Although|strong="H3588" you|strong="H3588" have|strong="H4672" gone through|strong="H3605" all|strong="H3605" through|strong="H3605" my|strong="H3605" things|strong="H3605", what|strong="H4100" have|strong="H4672" you|strong="H3588" found|strong="H4672" of|strong="H1004" all|strong="H3605" your|strong="H3605" household|strong="H1004" possessions|strong="H3627"? Declare it|strong="H7760" here|strong="H3541" before|strong="H5048" my|strong="H3605" kinsmen and|strong="H1004" yours, so|strong="H3541" that|strong="H3588" they|strong="H3588" may|strong="H1004" decide|strong="H3198" which|strong="H1004" of|strong="H1004" us|strong="H7760" two|strong="H8147" is|strong="H4100" in|strong="H1004" the|strong="H3605" right.
38 In|strong="H8141" all|strong="H5973" these|strong="H2088" twenty|strong="H6242" years|strong="H8141" that|strong="H8141" have|strong="H3808" I|strong="H2088" been|strong="H3808" with|strong="H5973" you|strong="H5973", your|strong="H3808" ewes|strong="H7353" and|strong="H6242" female|strong="H5795" goats|strong="H5795" have|strong="H3808" not|strong="H3808" miscarried|strong="H7921" their|strong="H3808" young|strong="H7921", neither|strong="H3808" did|strong="H3808" I|strong="H2088" eat the|strong="H5973" rams of|strong="H8141" your|strong="H3808" flocks|strong="H6629".
39 I|strong="H3117" did|strong="H3808" not|strong="H3808" bring|strong="H2398" to|strong="H3027" you|strong="H3117" the|strong="H3117" animals which|strong="H3117" were|strong="H3117" killed by|strong="H3027" wild beasts|strong="H2966"; I|strong="H3117" bore|strong="H2398" the|strong="H3117" loss|strong="H2398" of|strong="H3117" it|strong="H3915" myself; from|strong="H3027" my|strong="H1245" hand|strong="H3027" you|strong="H3117" required|strong="H1245" compensation, whether stolen|strong="H1589" by|strong="H3027" day|strong="H3117" or|strong="H3808" stolen|strong="H1589" by|strong="H3027" night|strong="H3915".
40 This|strong="H3117" was|strong="H1961" how I|strong="H3117" was|strong="H1961": in|strong="H3117" the|strong="H3117" day|strong="H3117" the|strong="H3117" heat|strong="H2721" consumed me|strong="H1961", and|strong="H3117" by|strong="H3117" night|strong="H3915" the|strong="H3117" frost|strong="H7140", and|strong="H3117" sleep|strong="H8142" deserted me|strong="H1961".
41 These|strong="H2088" twenty|strong="H6242" years|strong="H8141" I|strong="H2088" have|strong="H1323" been|strong="H5647" in|strong="H8141" your|strong="H2088" house|strong="H1004"; I|strong="H2088" served|strong="H5647" you|strong="H5647" fourteen|strong="H6240" years|strong="H8141" for|strong="H1004" your|strong="H2088" two|strong="H8147" daughters|strong="H1323", and|strong="H6242" six|strong="H8337" years|strong="H8141" for|strong="H1004" your|strong="H2088" flock|strong="H6629", and|strong="H6242" you|strong="H5647" have|strong="H1323" changed|strong="H2498" my|strong="H2498" wages|strong="H4909" ten|strong="H6235" times|strong="H4489".
42 Unless|strong="H3588" the|strong="H7200" God|strong="H7971" of|strong="H3709" my|strong="H7200" father, the|strong="H7200" God|strong="H7971" of|strong="H3709" Abraham and|strong="H7971" the|strong="H7200" Fear|strong="H6343" of|strong="H3709" Isaac|strong="H3327", had|strong="H1961" been|strong="H1961" with|strong="H3198" me|strong="H7971", surely|strong="H3588" by|strong="H7971" now|strong="H6258" you|strong="H3588" would have|strong="H1961" sent|strong="H7971" me|strong="H7971" away|strong="H7971" empty|strong="H7387". But|strong="H3588" God|strong="H7971" has|strong="H1961" seen|strong="H7200" my|strong="H7200" affliction|strong="H6040" and|strong="H7971" the|strong="H7200" labour|strong="H3018" of|strong="H3709" my|strong="H7200" hands|strong="H3709", and|strong="H7971" he|strong="H3588" rebuked|strong="H3198" you|strong="H3588" last|strong="H3588" night.’
43 Then|strong="H6030" Laban|strong="H3837" answered|strong="H6030" Jacob|strong="H3290", ‘The|strong="H3605" daughters|strong="H1323" are|strong="H3117" my|strong="H3605" daughters|strong="H1323", and|strong="H1121" the|strong="H3605" children|strong="H1121" are|strong="H3117" my|strong="H3605" grandchildren|strong="H1121", and|strong="H1121" the|strong="H3605" flocks|strong="H6629" are|strong="H3117" my|strong="H3605" flocks|strong="H6629", and|strong="H1121" all|strong="H3605" that|strong="H7200" you|strong="H3605" see|strong="H7200" is|strong="H1931" mine|strong="H7200", but|strong="H7200" what|strong="H4100" can|strong="H4100" I|strong="H3117" do|strong="H6213" today|strong="H3117" for|strong="H6213" these|strong="H6213" my|strong="H3605" daughters|strong="H1323", or|strong="H3117" for|strong="H6213" their|strong="H3605" children|strong="H1121" whom they|strong="H3117" have|strong="H1121" borne|strong="H3205"?
44 Come|strong="H1961", let|strong="H6258" us|strong="H1961" make|strong="H3772" a|strong="H3068" covenant|strong="H1285", I|strong="H6258" and|strong="H3212" you|strong="H3772", and|strong="H3212" let|strong="H6258" there|strong="H1961" be|strong="H1961" a|strong="H3068" witness|strong="H5707" between me|strong="H1961" and|strong="H3212" you|strong="H3772".’
45 So|strong="H3947" Jacob|strong="H3290" took|strong="H3947" a|strong="H3068" stone, and|strong="H3290" set|strong="H7311" it|strong="H3947" up|strong="H7311" as|strong="H3947" a|strong="H3068" pillar|strong="H4676",
46 and|strong="H8033" said to|strong="H5921" the|strong="H5921" members of|strong="H5921" his|strong="H3947" family, ‘Gather|strong="H3950" stones.’ When|strong="H6213" they|strong="H8033" had|strong="H3290" taken|strong="H3947" stones and|strong="H8033" made|strong="H6213" a|strong="H3068" heap|strong="H1530", they|strong="H8033" ate there|strong="H8033" by|strong="H5921" the|strong="H5921" heap|strong="H1530".
47 Laban|strong="H3837" called|strong="H7121" it|strong="H7121" Jegar-sahaduthap, but|strong="H3290" Jacob|strong="H3290" called|strong="H7121" it|strong="H7121" Galeed|strong="H1567".
48 ‘This|strong="H2088" heap|strong="H1530"’, Laban|strong="H3837" said|strong="H7121", ‘is|strong="H2088" witness|strong="H5707" between|strong="H5921" me|strong="H5921" and|strong="H3117" you|strong="H5921" today|strong="H3117".’ This|strong="H2088" is|strong="H2088" why|strong="H5921" it|strong="H7121" was|strong="H8034" called|strong="H7121" Galeed|strong="H1567",
49 and|strong="H3068" Mizpah|strong="H4709", for|strong="H3588" Laban said, ‘May|strong="H3068" the|strong="H3588" \+w Lord|strong="H3068"\+w* watch|strong="H6822" between me|strong="H5641" and|strong="H3068" you|strong="H3588" when|strong="H3588" we|strong="H3068" are|strong="H3068" absent|strong="H5641" one|strong="H3588" from|strong="H3068" another|strong="H7453",
50 so|strong="H3947" that|strong="H7200" you|strong="H5921" may not|strong="H7200" maltreat my|strong="H7200" daughters|strong="H1323" nor take|strong="H3947" other wives besides|strong="H5921" my|strong="H7200" daughters|strong="H1323". No|strong="H3947" one|strong="H7200" is|strong="H1323" with|strong="H5973" us|strong="H5921"; but|strong="H7200" beware: God is|strong="H1323" witness|strong="H5707" between|strong="H5973" me|strong="H7200" and|strong="H7200" you|strong="H5921".’
51 Moreover|strong="H2009", Laban|strong="H3837" said to|strong="H2088" Jacob|strong="H3290", ‘See|strong="H2009" this|strong="H2088" heap|strong="H1530", and|strong="H3290" the|strong="H2009" pillar|strong="H4676" which|strong="H2088" I|strong="H2009" have|strong="H1530" set|strong="H3384" up between me and|strong="H3290" you|strong="H3384".
52 This|strong="H2088" heap|strong="H1530" is|strong="H2088" a|strong="H3068" witness|strong="H5707" and|strong="H2088" the|strong="H5674" pillar|strong="H4676" is|strong="H2088" a|strong="H3068" witness|strong="H5707" that|strong="H2088" I|strong="H2088" should not|strong="H3808" pass|strong="H5674" beyond|strong="H5674" this|strong="H2088" heap|strong="H1530" to|strong="H5674" you|strong="H3808" and|strong="H2088" that|strong="H2088" you|strong="H3808" must|strong="H3808" not|strong="H3808" pass|strong="H5674" beyond|strong="H5674" this|strong="H2088" heap|strong="H1530" and|strong="H2088" this|strong="H2088" pillar|strong="H4676" to|strong="H5674" me|strong="H5674", with|strong="H5674" hostile intent.
53 The|strong="H8199" God of|strong="H6343" Abraham and|strong="H3290" the|strong="H8199" God of|strong="H6343" Nahor|strong="H5152"’ (the|strong="H8199" God of|strong="H6343" their|strong="H3290" ancestors) ‘judge|strong="H8199" between|strong="H8199" us|strong="H8199".’ And|strong="H3290" Jacob|strong="H3290" swore|strong="H7650" by|strong="H7650" the|strong="H8199" Fear|strong="H6343" of|strong="H6343" his|strong="H3327" father Isaac|strong="H3327".
54 Then|strong="H7121" Jacob|strong="H3290" offered|strong="H2076" a|strong="H3068" sacrifice|strong="H2077" there|strong="H2022" on|strong="H7121" the|strong="H7121" mountain|strong="H2022" and|strong="H3899" called|strong="H7121" his|strong="H7121" kinsmen to|strong="H7121" eat|strong="H3899" bread|strong="H3899", and|strong="H3899" they|strong="H7121" ate bread|strong="H3899" and|strong="H3899" spent|strong="H3885" the|strong="H7121" night|strong="H3885" on|strong="H7121" the|strong="H7121" mountain|strong="H2022".
55 Then early in the morning Laban arose, and, when he had kissed his grandchildren and his daughters and blessed them, he departed and returned to his home.
