18And JacobH3290 rose up earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and tookH3947 the stoneH68 that he had putH7760 for his pillowsH4763, and set it upH7760 for a pillarH4676, and pouredH3332 oilH8081 upon the top of itH7218.
19And he calledH7121 the nameH8034 of that placeH4725 Beth–elH1008: butH199 the nameH8034 of that cityH5892 was called LuzH3870 at the firstH7223.1
20And JacobH3290 vowedH5087 a vowH5088, sayingH559, If GodH430 will be with me, and will keep meH8104 in this wayH1870 that I goH1980, and will giveH5414 me breadH3899 to eatH398, and raimentH899 to put onH3847,
21So that I come againH7725 to my father’sH1 houseH1004 in peaceH7965; And, behold, YhwhH3068 be my GodH430:
22And this stoneH68, which I have setH7760 for a pillarH4676, shall be God’sH430 houseH1004: and of all that thou shalt giveH5414 me I will surelyH6237 give the tenthH6237 unto thee.
