28:17 And he was afraid [H3372] , and said [H559] , How dreadful [H3372] [is] this place [H4725] ! this [is] none other but the house [H1004] of God [H430] , and this [is] the gate [H8179] of heaven [H8064] .

28:18 And Jacob [H3290] rose up early [H7925] in the morning [H1242] , and took [H3947] the stone [H68] that he had put [H7760] [for] his pillows [H4763] , and set it up [H7760] [for] a pillar [H4676] , and poured [H3332] oil [H8081] upon the top of it [H7218] .

28:19 And he called [H7121] the name [H8034] of that place [H4725] Bethel [H1008] : but [H199] the name [H8034] of that city [H5892] [was called] Luz [H3870] at the first [H7223] .(Bethel: that is, The house of God)

28:21 So that I come again [H7725] to my father's [H1] house [H1004] in peace [H7965] ; then shall the LORD [H3068] be my God [H430] :

28:22 And this stone [H68] , which I have set [H7760] [for] a pillar [H4676] , shall be God's [H430] house [H1004] : and of all that thou shalt give [H5414] me I will surely [H6237] give the tenth [H6237] unto thee.
