Genesis 28

1And IsaacH3327 calledH7121 JacobH3290, and blessedH1288 him, and charged him, and saidH559 unto him, Thou shalt not takeH3947 a wifeH802 of the daughtersH1323 of CanaanH3667. 2AriseH6965, go to Paddan-aram, to the houseH1004 of BethuelH1328 thy mother’sH517 fatherH1; and takeH3947 thee a wifeH802 from thence of the daughtersH1323 of LabanH3837 thy mother’sH517 brotherH251. 3And GodH410 AlmightyH7706 blessH1288 thee, and makeH6509 thee fruitfulH6509, and multiplyH7235 thee, that thou mayest beH1961 a companyH6951 of peoplesH5971; 4and giveH5414 thee the blessingH1293 of AbrahamH85, to thee, and to thy seedH2233 with thee; that thou mayest inheritH3423 the landH776 of thy sojourningsH4033, which GodH430 gaveH5414 unto AbrahamH85. 5And IsaacH3327 sentH7971 awayH7971 JacobH3290: and he went to Paddan-aram unto LabanH3837, sonH1121 of BethuelH1328 the Syrian, the brotherH251 of RebekahH7259, Jacob’s and Esau’s motherH517.

6Now EsauH6215 sawH7200 that IsaacH3327 had blessedH1288 JacobH3290 and sentH7971 him awayH7971 to Paddan-aram, to takeH3947 him a wifeH802 from thence; and that as he blessedH1288 him he gave him a charge, sayingH559, Thou shalt not takeH3947 a wifeH802 of the daughtersH1323 of CanaanH3667; 7and that JacobH3290 obeyed his fatherH1 and his motherH517, and was gone to Paddan-aram: 8and EsauH6215 sawH7200 that the daughtersH1323 of CanaanH3667 pleased not IsaacH3327 his fatherH1; 9and EsauH6215 went unto IshmaelH3458, and tookH3947, besides the wivesH802 that he had, MahalathH4258 the daughterH1323 of IshmaelH3458 Abraham’s sonH1121, the sisterH269 of NebaiothH5032, to be his wifeH802.

10And JacobH3290 wentH3318 out from Beer-sheba, and wentH3318 toward HaranH2771. 11And he lighted upon a certain placeH4725, and tarried there all night, because the sunH8121 was setH7760; and he tookH3947 one of the stonesH68 of the placeH4725, and putH7760 it under his headH4763, and layH7901 downH7901 in that placeH4725 to sleep. 12And he dreamedH2492; and behold, a ladder setH5324 up on the earthH776, and the topH7218 of it reachedH5060 to heavenH8064; and behold, the angelsH4397 of GodH430 ascending and descending on it. 13And, behold, Jehovah stoodH5324 above it, and saidH559, I am Jehovah, the GodH430 of AbrahamH85 thy fatherH1, and the GodH430 of IsaacH3327: the landH776 whereon thou liest, to thee will I giveH5414 it, and to thy seedH2233; 14and thy seedH2233 shall beH1961 as the dustH6083 of the earthH776, and thou shalt spreadH6555 abroad to the westH3220, and to the eastH6924, and to the northH6828, and to the southH5045: and in thee and in thy seedH2233 shall all the familiesH4940 of the earthH776 beH1961 blessedH1288. 15And, behold, I am with thee, and will keepH8104 thee whithersoever thou goest, and will bringH7725 thee again into this landH127; for I will not leaveH5800 thee, until I have done that which I have spokenH1696 to thee of. 16And JacobH3290 awaked out of his sleepH8142, and he saidH559, Surely Jehovah is in this placeH4725; and I knewH3045 it not. 17And he was afraidH3372, and saidH559, HowH4100 dreadful is this placeH4725! this is none other than the houseH1004 of GodH430, and this is the gateH8179 of heavenH8064.

18And JacobH3290 roseH7925 up earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and tookH3947 the stoneH68 that he had putH7760 under his headH7218, and setH7760 it up for a pillarH4676, and pouredH3332 oilH8081 upon the topH7218 of it. 19And he calledH7121 the nameH8034 of that placeH4725 Beth-el: but the nameH8034 of the cityH5892 was LuzH3870 at the firstH7223. 20And JacobH3290 vowedH5087 a vowH5088, sayingH559, If GodH430 will beH1961 with me, and will keepH8104 me in this wayH1870 that I goH1980, and will giveH5414 me breadH3899 to eatH398, and raiment to putH5414 on, 21so that I come again to my father’sH1 houseH1004 in peaceH7965, and Jehovah will beH1961 my GodH430, 22then this stoneH68, which I have setH7760 up for a pillarH4676, shall beH1961 God’sH430 houseH1004: and of all that thou shalt giveH5414 me I will surely giveH5414 the tenthH6237 unto thee.
