וְ נָקוּמָה וְ נַעֲלֶה בֵּית־אֵל וְ אֶעֶשֶׂה שָּׁם מִזְבֵּחַ לָ אֵל הָ עֹנֶה אֹתִי בְּ יֹום צָרָתִי וַ יְהִי עִמָּדִי בַּ דֶּרֶךְ אֲשֶׁר הָלָכְתִּי
And let us stand up and ascend house of El, and I am making there a slaughtering-place to El, the One-who-eyes1084 אֶת-me in the hot-one of my narrowness,1085 and he is becoming by me in the road which I have walked.`
