18 And Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put under his head, and set it up as a standing-stone, and poured oil on top of it.

19 He called the name of that place Bethel, though previously the city was named 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 clothing to put on,

21 so that I come again to my father's house in peace, then he will be my God,

22 then this stone, which I have set up as a standing-stone, will be God's house. Of all that you will give me I will surely give the tenth to you.|
