18 So early in the morning Jacob took the stone that he had put under his head and set it up (A)for a pillar (B)and poured oil on the top of it. 19 He called the name of that place (C)Bethel,[a] but the name of the city was Luz at the first. 20 Then Jacob (D)made 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 clothing to wear, 21 (E)so that I come again to my father's house in peace, (F)then the Lord shall be my God, 22 and this stone, which I have set up for a pillar, (G)shall be God's house. And (H)of all that you give me I will give a full tenth to you.”
