TSNTyndale Study Notes:

28:11 The good place where Jacob set up camp was apparently a protected area at the foot of a hill. The stone to rest his head against was probably large, more for protection than for a pillow.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

וַ⁠יִּפְגַּ֨ע בַּ⁠מָּק֜וֹם וַ⁠יָּ֤לֶן שָׁם֙

and,came in/on/at/with,place and,spent_the_night there

Alternate translation: “That evening he reached a good place to camp so he stayed the night there” or “Late that evening he came to a place where he stayed for the night”

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure

כִּי בָ֣א הַ⁠שֶּׁ֔מֶשׁ

that/for/because/then/when set the,sun

For some languages it is more natural to put the information in this clause first in this sentence and say, “After the sun went down, he reached a good place to camp/sleep, so he stopped/stayed there for the night.” Do what is best in your language. Alternate translation: “because the sun had gone down.”

וַ⁠יִּקַּח֙ מֵ⁠אַבְנֵ֣י הַ⁠מָּק֔וֹם

and=he/it_took of,stones the,place

The way you translate “stone” should refer to something that would be large enough to support Jacob’s head, but not so large that it would be too heavy for him to lift. For example in English, a pebble is too small and a boulder is too big. Alternate translation: “He picked out a large flat stone that he found there”

וַ⁠יָּ֖שֶׂם מְרַֽאֲשֹׁתָ֑י⁠ו

and=he/it_assigned under_~_head,his

Alternate translation: “and rested his head on it as a pillow,” or “and used it as a headrest” or “to use as a pillow,”

וַ⁠יִּשְׁכַּ֖ב בַּ⁠מָּק֥וֹם הַ⁠הֽוּא

and,lay_down in/on/at/with,place (the)=that

Consider whether or not it is better in your language to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “then he lay down there and went to sleep.” or “Then he lay down there on the ground and went to sleep.” or “then he went to sleep there.”
