¹Then Isaac called for Jacob and blessed him, and he gave him commandment, and he said to him, “You shall not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan. ²Arise, go to Paddan-Aram, to the house of Bethuel your mother's father, and take a wife from there, from the daughters of Laban your mother's brother.

³And may God Almighty bless you,

And make you fruitful and increase you,

So that you become a people who are a convocation.

⁴And may he give the blessing of Abraham

To you and to your seed with you

So that you inherit the land you are staying in,

Which God gave to Abraham.”

⁵Then Isaac sent Jacob off, and he went to Paddan-Aram, to Laban the son of Bethuel the Aramaean, the brother of Rebekah the mother of Jacob and Esau. ⁶And Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and had sent him to Paddan-Aram to get himself a wife from there, when he blessed him and commanded him, saying, “You shall not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan”, ⁷and that Jacob obeyed his father and his mother and went to Paddan-Aram. ⁸And Esau saw that the daughters of Canaan were considered bad in the eyes of Isaac his father, ⁹so Esau went to Ishmael and took Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael the son of Abraham, the sister of Nebaioth, to be his wife along with his other wives. ¹⁰So Jacob went out from Beersheba and went to Haran. ¹¹And he arrived at the place and lodged there, because the sun was setting, and he took some of the place's stones and placed them as his pillow, and he lay down in that place. ¹²And he had a dream, and what he saw was a ladder placed on the earth, whose top reached to heaven, and he also saw angels of God ascending and descending by it. ¹³And behold, the Lord was standing by it, and he said, “I am the Lord God of Abraham your father and the God of Isaac. I will give the land on which you are lying to you and to your seed. ¹⁴And your seed will become as the dust of the earth, and you will forge your way westwards and eastwards, and northwards and southwards, and through you all the families of the earth will be blessed, and through your seed. ¹⁵And look, I am with you, and I will guard you everywhere you go, and I will bring you back to this land, for I will not leave you until I have carried out what I have told you.” ¹⁶Then Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, “The Lord is certainly in this place, yet I did not know it.” ¹⁷And he was afraid, and he said, “How fearful this place is. This is nothing but the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.” ¹⁸Then Jacob got up early in the morning and took the stone which he had placed as his pillow, and he set it up as a pillar and poured oil on top of it. ¹⁹And he called that place Beth-El, but the name of the city was initially Luz. ²⁰Then Jacob made a vow and said, “If God will be with me and keep me on this way which I am going and give me bread to eat and clothing to wear, ²¹and I return in peace to the house of my father, then the Lord will be my God, ²²and this stone which I have set up as a pillar will be the house of God, and I will rigorously give you a tenth of everything you give me.”
