47 Laban named it Jegar Sahadutha,[a] while Jacob named it Galeed.[b] 48 Laban said to Jacob, “This pile of rocks will be a reminder for both of us.” That is why that place was named Galeed. 49 Laban also said, “May the Lord keep an eye on us while we are separated from each other.” So the place was also named Mizpah.[c]
