43. Laban said to Jacob, “These women are my daughters. These children belong to me, and these animals are mine. Everything you see here belongs to me, but I can do nothing to keep my daughters and their children.
44. So I am ready to make an agreement with you. We will set up a pile of stones to show that we have an agreement.”
45. So Jacob found a large rock and put it there to show that he had made an agreement.
46. He told his men to find some more rocks and to make a pile of rocks. Then they ate beside the pile of rocks.
47. Laban named that place Yegar Sahadutha. But Jacob named that place Galeed.
48. Laban said to Jacob, “This pile of rocks will help us both remember our agreement.” That is why Jacob called the place Galeed.
