Genesis 28:16-22

16Then Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, “Surely the Lord is in this place, and I wasn’t even aware of it!”

17But he was also afraid and said, “What an awesome place this is! It is none other than the house of God, the very gateway to heaven!”

18The next morning Jacob got up very early. He took the stone he had rested his head against, and he set it upright as a memorial pillar. Then he poured olive oil over it.

19He named that place Bethel (which means “house of God”), although it was previously called Luz.

20Then Jacob made this vow: “If God will indeed be with me and protect me on this journey, and if he will provide me with food and clothing,

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

22And this memorial pillar I have set up will become a place for worshiping God, and I will present to God a tenth of everything he gives me.”
