Genesis 28:13-14

13And behold, 1the Lord stood 2above it and said, “I am the Lord, 3the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac; the land on which you lie, I will give it 4to you and to 5your 6descendants.

14Your 7descendants will also be like 8the dust of the earth, and you will 9spread out 10to the west and to the east and to the north and to the south; and 11in you and in your 12descendants shall all the families of the earth be blessed.
