Genesis 28:16

¹⁵The prince of the LORD’s army said to Joshua, “Take off your sandals, for the place on which you stand is holy.” Joshua did so.

⁵He said, “Don’t come close. Take off your sandals, for the place you are standing on is holy ground.”

¹¹Who is like you, LORD, among the gods? Who is like you, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?

¹⁴For God speaks once, yes twice, though man pays no attention.

⁴The LORD called Samuel. He said, “Here I am.”

⁵He ran to Eli and said, “Here I am; for you called me.” He said, “I didn’t call. Lie down again.” He went and lay down.

⁶The LORD called yet again, “Samuel!” Samuel arose and went to Eli and said, “Here I am; for you called me.” He answered, “I didn’t call, my son. Lie down again.”

⁷Now Samuel didn’t yet know the LORD, neither was the LORD’s word yet revealed to him.

¹¹Behold, he goes by me, and I don’t see him. He passes on also, but I don’t perceive him.

¹³The LORD of Armies is who you must respect as holy. He is the one you must fear. He is the one you must dread.

³⁵You are awesome, God, in your sanctuaries. The God of Israel gives strength and power to his people. Praise be to God!
