Then Jacob made a strong promise to God. He said, “God, if you go with me and look after me while I am travelling, if you give me food and clothes to wear, and if you take me back to my father Isaac's camp safely, then you, Lord, you will be my God. And I tell you, I will not worship or respect any other gods or spirit. You are the only God that I will respect, and I will do everything you tell me.
