16Then JacobH3290 1awokeH3364 from his sleepH8142 and saidH559, “2SurelyH403 the LordH3068 is in thisH2088 placeH4725, and I did not knowH3045 it.” 17He was afraidH3372 and saidH559, “3HowH4100 awesomeH3372 is thisH2088 placeH4725! ThisH2088 is noneH369 otherH369 thanH3588H518 the houseH1004 of GodH430, and thisH2088 is the gateH8179 of heavenH8064.”
