Genesis 28:16-22

16And JacobH3290 awokeH3364 from his sleepH8142, and he saidH559, SurelyH403 the LORDH3068 isH3426 in this placeH4725; and I knewH3045 it not. 17And he was afraidH3372, and saidH559, How dreadfulH3372 is this placeH4725! this is no other but the houseH1004 of GodH430, and this is the gateH8179 of heavenH8064. 18And JacobH3290 rose 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 on the top of itH7218. 19And he calledH7121 the nameH8034 of that placeH4725 BethelH1008: 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; then shall the LORDH3068 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 to thee.
