  • Galeed - See how you translated this in en:bible:notes:gen:31:45.
  • Mizpah - Translators may add a footnote that says: "The name Mizpah means 'watchtower.'"
  • although no one else is with us - Here "us" refers to Laban and Jacob. Alternate translation: "even if no one else is there to see us"
