14. Your offspring will be as the dust of the earth, and you will spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south. In you and in your offspring will all the families of the earth be blessed.
15. Behold, I am with you, and will keep you, wherever you go, and will bring you again into this land. For I will not leave you, until I have done that which I have spoken of to you.”
16. Jacob awakened out of his sleep, and he said, “Surely the Lord is in this place, and I didn’t know it.”
17. He was afraid, and said, “How awesome this place is! This is none other than God’s house, and this is the gate of heaven.”
18. Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put under his head, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil on its top.
19. He called the name of that place Bethel, but the name of the city was Luz at the first.
20. Jacob vowed a vow, saying, “If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and clothing to put on,
21. so that I come again to my father’s house in peace, and the Lord will be my God,
22. then this stone, which I have set up for a pillar, will be God’s house. Of all that you will give me I will surely give a tenth to you.”
