- "Now¹ therefore come¹ thou,²° let us makeª° a covenant,ª I¹ and thou;¹ and let it be¹ for a witnessª between¹ me and thee. ... And Labanª said,ª° This¹ heapª [is] a witnessª between¹ me and thee this day.ª Therefore¹¹ was the nameª of it calledª° Galeed;ª" {Gen 31:44-48} + "This¹ heapª [be] witness,ª and [this] pillarª [be] witness,ª that¹ I¹ will not¹ pass overª°¹ this¹ heapª to¹ thee, and that¹ thou¹ shalt not¹ pass overª°¹ this¹ heapª and this¹ pillarª unto¹ me, for harm.ª" {Gen 31:52} + "But¹ [that] it¹ [may be] a witnessª between¹ us, and you, and our generationsª afterª us, that we might doª°¹ the serviceª of the LORDª beforeª him with our burnt offerings,ª and with our sacrifices,ª and with our peace offerings;ª that your childrenª may not¹ sayª° to our childrenª in time to come,ª Ye have no¹ partª in the LORD.ª ... Therefore saidª° we, that it shall be,¹ when¹ they should [so] sayª° to¹ us or to¹ our generationsª in time to come,ª that we may sayª° [again], Beholdª°¹ the patternª of the altarª of the LORD,ª which¹ our fathersª made,ª° not¹ for burnt offerings,ª nor¹ for sacrifices;ª but¹ it¹ [is] a witnessª between¹ us and you." {Jsh 22:27-28} + "And Joshuaª saidª° unto¹ all¹ the people,ª Behold,¹ this¹ stoneª shall be¹ a witnessª unto us; for¹ it¹ hath heardª°¹ all¹ the wordsª of the LORDª which¹ he spakeª° unto¹ us: it shall be¹ therefore a witnessª unto you, lest¹ ye denyª° your God.ª" {Jsh 24:27}
