ULT GEN Chapter 28

GEN 28 ©

28Then Isaac called for Jacob and blessed him, and commanded him and said to him, “Do not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan. 2Get up, go to Paddan Aram, to the home of Bethuel the father of your mother, and take a wife for yourself from there, from the daughters of Laban the brother of your mother. 3And may God Almighty bless you and make you fruitful and multiply you so that you become a community of peoples. 4And may he give the blessing of Abraham to you, to you and to your offspring with you, so that you possess the land of your sojournings, which God gave to Abraham.” 5Then Isaac sent Jacob, and he went to Paddan Aram, to Laban, the son of Bethuel the Aramean and the brother of Rebekah, the mother of Jacob and Esau.

Esau Takes Another Wife

28:6-9

6Now Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and had sent him to Paddan Aram to take a wife for himself from there, and that when he blessed him, then he commanded him, saying, “Do not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan,” 7and that Jacob listened to his father and to his mother and went to Paddan Aram. 8Then Esau saw that the daughters of Canaan were displeasing in the eyes of Isaac his father. 9So Esau went to Ishmael and he took as a wife Mahalath, the daughter of Ishmael, Abraham’s son, the sister of Nebaioth, in addition to his wives who belonged to him.

Jacob’s Dream at Bethel

28:10-22

10And Jacob left from Beersheba and set out for Haran. 11Then he reached a certain place, and he stopped there because the sun had gone. And he took one of the stones of the place and put it under his head, and he lay down in that place. 12And he dreamed, and behold, a stairway was set up on the earth and its top reached to the heavens, and behold, angels of God were ascending and descending on it. 13And behold, Yahweh was standing above it, and he said, “I am Yahweh, the God of Abraham your grandfather and the God of Isaac. The land that you are lying on I will give to you and to your offspring. 14And your offspring will be like the dust of the earth, and you will spread out to the west and to the east and to the north and to the south. And in you and in your offspring all the families of the earth will be blessed. 15And behold, I am with you, and I will watch over you in every place that you go, and I will bring you back to this land. For I will not leave you until I have done what I have spoken to you.” 16Then Jacob woke up from his sleep and said, “Surely Yahweh is in this place, but I did not know it!” 17So he was afraid and said, “How awesome this place is! This is nothing other than the house of God, and this is the gateway of heaven!”

18Then in the morning Jacob got up early, and he took the stone that he had put under his head and stood it up as a pillar, and he poured oil on its top. 19And he called the name of that place Bethel, even though Luz had been the name of the town at first.

20Then Jacob vowed a vow, saying, “If God will be with me and watch over me on this road that I am walking on and give to me bread to eat and clothes to wear, 21and if I return in peace to the home of my father, then Yahweh will be God to me, 22and this stone that I have stood up as a pillar will be the house of God, and all that you give to me I will tithe a tenth to you.”
