He took one of the stones from the place, put it there at his head, and lay down in that place. 12 And he dreamed:(A) A stairway was set on the ground with its top reaching heaven, and God’s angels were going up and down on it.(B) 13 Yahweh was standing there beside him,[a] saying, “I am Yahweh,(C) the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac. I will give you and your offspring the land that you are now sleeping on.
