Genesis 28:10-14

10And JacobH3290 wentH3318 outH3318 from Beer-sheba, and wentH3318 toward HaranH2771.

11And he lighted uponH935 a certain placeH4725, and tarried there allH7901 night, becauseH3588 the sunH8121 was setH7760; and he tookH3947 one of the stonesH68 of the placeH4725, and putH7760 it underH935 his headH4763, and layH7901 downH7901 in that placeH4725 to sleepH7901.

12And he dreamedH2492, and beholdH2009 a ladderH5551 setH5324 upH5927 on the earthH776, and the topH7218 of it reachedH5060 to heavenH8064: and beholdH2009 the angelsH4397 of GodH430 ascendingH5927 and descendingH3381 on it.

13And, beholdH2009, the LORDH3068 stoodH5324 aboveH5921 it, and saidH559, I am the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of AbrahamH85 thy fatherH1, and the GodH430 of IsaacH3327: the landH776 whereon thou liest, to thee will I giveH5414 it, and to thy seedH2233;

14and thy seedH2233 shall be as the dustH6083 of the earthH776, and thou shalt spreadH6555 abroadH6555 to the westH3220, and to the eastH6924, and to the northH6828, and to the southH5045: and in thee and in thy seedH2233 shall allH3605 the familiesH4940 of the earthH776 be blessedH1288.
