New Testament

Genesis 28:18-22 New International Version (NIV)

18. Early the next morning Jacob took the stone he had placed under his head and set it up as a pillar and poured oil on top of it.

19. He called that place Bethel, though the city used to be called Luz.

20. Then Jacob made a vow, saying, “If God will be with me and will watch over me on this journey I am taking and will give me food to eat and clothes to wear

21. so that I return safely to my father’s household, then the Lord will be my God

22. and this stone that I have set up as a pillar will be God’s house, and of all that you give me I will give you a tenth.”
