01:028:013 And, behold, the lord stood above it, and said, I am the lord
           God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac:  the land
           whereon thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed;

01:028:014 And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and thou shalt
           spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north,
           and to the south:  and in thee and in thy seed shall all the
           families of the earth be blessed.

01:028:015 And, behold, I am with thee, and will keep thee in all places
           whither thou goest, and will bring thee again into this land;
           for I will not leave thee, until I have done that which I have
           spoken to thee of.

01:028:016 And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said, Surely the
           lord is in this place; and I knew it not.

01:028:017 And he was afraid, and said, How dreadful is this place! this
           is none other but the house of God, and this is the gate of
           heaven.

01:028:018 And Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone
           that he had put for his pillows, and set it up for a pillar,
           and poured oil upon the top of it.

01:028:019 And he called the name of that place Bethel:  but the name of
           that city was called Luz at the first.

01:028:020 And 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 raiment to put on,

01:028:021 So that I come again to my father’s house in peace; then shall
           the lord be my God: 

01:028:022 And this stone, which I have set for a pillar, shall be God’s
           house:  and of all that thou shalt give me I will surely give
           the tenth unto thee.

01:029:001 Then Jacob went on his journey, and came into the land of the
           people of the east.

01:029:002 And he looked, and behold a well in the field, and, lo, there
           were three flocks of sheep lying by it; for out of that well
           they watered the flocks:  and a great stone was upon the well’s
           mouth.

01:029:003 And thither were all the flocks gathered:  and they rolled the
           stone from the well’s mouth, and watered the sheep, and put
           the stone again upon the well’s mouth in his place.

01:029:004 And Jacob said unto them, My brethren, whence be ye?  And they
           said, Of Haran are we.

01:029:005 And he said unto them, Know ye Laban the son of Nahor?  And
           they said, We know him.

01:029:006 And he said unto them, Is he well?  And they said, He is well: 
           and, behold, Rachel his daughter cometh with the sheep.
