Genesis 28:18-22

18Early in the morning Jacob took the stone that was near his head and set it up as a marker. He poured oil on top of it

19and named the place Bethel, though previously the city was named Luz.

20Then Jacob made a vow: “If God will be with me and watch over me during this journey I’m making, if he provides me with food to eat and clothing to wear,

21and if I return safely to my father’s family, then the Lord will be my God.

22This stone that I have set up as a marker will be God’s house, and I will give to you a tenth of all that you give me.”
