1599 Geneva Bible
52 This heap shall be witness, and the pillar shall be witness, that I will not come over this heap to thee, and that thou shalt not pass over this heap and this pillar unto me for evil.
53 The God of Abraham, and the God of [a]Nahor, and the God of their father be judge between us: but Jacob sware by the [b]fear of his father Isaac.
54 Then Jacob did offer a sacrifice upon the mount, and called his brethren to eat [c]bread, and they did eat bread, and tarried all night in the mount.
