12 E sonhou, e eis uma escada que estava posta na terra, e seu topo tocava no céu; e eis que anjos de Deus subiam e desciam por ela.

13 E eis que o SENHOR estava no alto dela, e disse: “Eu sou o SENHOR, o Deus de teu pai Abraão, e o Deus de Isaque; a terra em que estás deitado, eu a darei a ti e à tua descendência.

14 E a tua descendência será como o pó da terra, e te estenderás ao ocidente, ao oriente, ao norte, e ao sul; e todas as famílias da terra serão abençoadas em ti e na tua descendência.

15 E eis que eu estou contigo, e te guardarei por onde quer que fores, e te farei voltar a esta terra; porque não te deixarei, até que eu tenha feito o que te disse.”

16 Jacó despertou-se de seu sonho, e disse: “Certamente o SENHOR está neste lugar, e eu não sabia.”
