So fled he, and all that he had, and made himself ready, and passed over the rivers, and set his face straight toward the mount Gilead.

Then he took his brethren with him and followed after him seven days' journey, and overtook him at the mount Gilead.

And Laban overtook Jacob: and Jacob had pitched his tent in that mount. And Laban with his brethren pitched their tent also upon the mount Gilead.

And Laban called it Jegar Sahadutha, but Jacob called Gilead.

Then said Laban, "This heap be witness between thee and me this day." Therefore is it called Gilead.

And they sat them down to eat bread. And as they lift up their eyes and looked about, there came a company of Ishmaelites from Gilead, and their camels laden with spicery, balm, and myrrh, and were going down into Egypt.
