18So JacobH3290 roseH7925 earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and tookH3947 1the stoneH68 that he had putH7760 2under his headH4763 and setH7760 it up as a pillarH4676 and pouredH3332 oilH8081 on its topH7218.
19He calledH7121 the nameH8034 of that placeH4725 34BethelH1008; howeverH199, 5previouslyH7223 the nameH8034 of the cityH5892 had been 6LuzH3870.
20Then JacobH3290 7madeH5087 a vowH5088, sayingH559, “8IfH518 GodH430 will be with me and will keepH8104 me on thisH2088 journeyH1870 that I 9takeH1980, and will giveH5414 me 1011foodH3899 to eatH398 and garmentsH899 to wearH3847,
21and 12I returnH7725 to my father’sH1 houseH1004 in 13safetyH7965, 14then the LordH3068 will be my GodH430.
22ThisH2088 stoneH68, whichH834 I have setH7760 up as a pillarH4676, 15will be God’sH430 houseH1004, and 16of allH3605 that You giveH5414 me I will surelyH6237 giveH6237 a tenthH6237 to You.”
