Jacob departed from Beersheba and went toward Haran / and came unto a place and tarried there all night / because the sun was down. And toke a stone of the place / and put it under his head / and laid him down in the same place to sleep. And he dreamed: and behold there stood a ladder upon the earth / and the top of it reached up to heaven. And see / the angels of God went up and down upon it / ye and the LORD stood upon it and said.
