Genesis 28 Interlinear

arise go to padanaram to the house of bethuel thy mothers father and take thee a wife from thence of the daughters of laban thy mothers brother

and god almighty bless thee and make thee fruitful and multiply thee that thou mayest be a multitude of people

and give thee the blessing of abraham to thee and to thy seed with thee that thou mayest inherit the land wherein thou art a stranger which god gave unto abraham

and isaac sent away jacob and he went to padanaram unto laban son of bethuel the syrian the brother of rebekah jacobs and esaus mother

when esau saw that isaac had blessed jacob and sent him away to padanaram to take him a wife from thence and that as he blessed him he gave him a charge saying thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of canaan

and that jacob obeyed his father and his mother and was gone to padanaram

and esau seeing that the daughters of canaan pleased not isaac his father

then went esau unto ishmael and took unto the wives which he had mahalath the daughter of ishmael abrahams son the sister of nebajoth to be his wife

and jacob went out from beersheba and went toward haran

and he lighted upon a certain place and tarried there all night because the sun was set and he took of the stones of that place and put them for his pillows and lay down in that place to sleep

and he dreamed and behold a ladder set up on the earth and the top of it reached to heaven and behold the angels of god ascending and descending

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

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

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

and jacob awaked out of his sleep and he said surely the lord is in this place and i knew

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

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

and he called the name of that place bethel but the name of that city was called luz at the first

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

so that i come again to my fathers house in peace then shall the lord be my god

and this stone which i have set for a pillar shall be gods house and of all that thou shalt give me i will surely give the tenth
