01:031:036 And Jacob was wroth, and chode with Laban:  and Jacob answered
           and said to Laban, What is my trespass? what is my sin, that
           thou hast so hotly pursued after me?

01:031:037 Whereas thou hast searched all my stuff, what hast thou found
           of all thy household stuff? set it here before my brethren and
           thy brethren, that they may judge betwixt us both.

01:031:038 This twenty years have I been with thee; thy ewes and thy she
           goats have not cast their young, and the rams of thy flock
           have I not eaten.

01:031:039 That which was torn of beasts I brought not unto thee; I bare
           the loss of it; of my hand didst thou require it, whether
           stolen by day, or stolen by night.

01:031:040 Thus I was; in the day the drought consumed me, and the frost
           by night; and my sleep departed from mine eyes.

01:031:041 Thus have I been twenty years in thy house; I served thee
           fourteen years for thy two daughters, and six years for thy
           cattle:  and thou hast changed my wages ten times.

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:
