Genesis 28:16-19
16When JacobH3290 woke upH3364H8142, he saidH559, “SurelyH403 the LORDH3068 isH3426 in thisH2088 placeH4725, and IH595 was unaware of itH3808H3045.” 17And he was afraidH3372 and saidH559, “HowH4100 awesomeH3372 is thisH2088 placeH4725! ThisH2088 is noneH369 other thanH3588H518 the houseH1004 of GodH430; thisH2088 is the gateH8179 of heavenH8064!”
18EarlyH7925 the next morningH1242, JacobH3290 tookH3947 the stoneH68 thatH834 he had placedH7760 under his headH4763, and he set it upH7760 as a pillarH4676. He pouredH3332 oilH8081 onH5921 top of itH7218, 19and he calledH7121 thatH1931 placeH4725 BethelH1008,1 thoughH199 previouslyH7223 the cityH5892 had been namedH8034 LuzH3870.
