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.
