1And God said unto Jacob, Arise, go up to Bethel and dwell there and make there an altar unto God, who appeared unto thee when thou didst flee from the face of Esau, thy brother. 2Then Jacob said unto his household and to all that [were] with him, Put away the strange gods that [are] among you and be clean and change your garments: 3And let us arise and go up to Bethel and I will make there an altar unto God, who answered me in the day of my distress, and has been with me in the way which I have gone. 4So they gave unto Jacob all the strange gods which [were] in their power and [all their] earrings which [were] in their ears, and Jacob hid them under the oak which [was] by Shechem. 5And they journeyed, and the terror of God was upon the cities that [were] round about them, and they did not pursue after the sons of Jacob. 6And Jacob came to Luz, which [is] in the land of Canaan, that [is], Bethel, he and all the people that [were] with him. 7And there he built an altar and called the place Elbethel because there God had appeared unto him when he fled from the face of his brother. 8Then Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, died, and she was buried beneath Bethel under an oak, and the name of it was called Allonbachuth. 9And God appeared unto Jacob again when he came out of Padanaram and blessed him. 10And God said unto him, Thy name [is] Jacob; thy name shall not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name, and he called his name Israel. 11And God said unto him, I [am] God Almighty; be fruitful and multiply, a nation and a company of nations ([Gentiles]) shall come out of thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins; 12and the land which I have given to Abraham and to Isaac, to thee will I give it and to thy seed after thee will I give the land. 13And God went up from him in the place where he talked with him. 14And Jacob set up a pillar in the place where he talked with him, [even] a pillar of stone; and he poured a drink offering upon it, and he poured oil upon it. 15And Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him, Bethel. 16And they journeyed from Bethel, and there was but a little way to come to Ephrath when Rachel travailed, and she had hard labour. 17And it came to pass when she was in hard labour, that the midwife said unto her, Fear not; thou shalt have this son also. 18And it came to pass as her soul was departing, (for she died) that she called his name Benoni, but his father called him Benjamin. 19Thus Rachel died and was buried in the way to Ephrath, which [is] Bethlehem. 20And Jacob set a pillar upon her grave; that [is] the pillar of Rachel's grave unto this day. 21And Israel journeyed and spread his tent beyond the tower of Edar. 22And it came to pass when Israel dwelt in that land, that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah, his father's concubine, and Israel heard [of it]. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve: 23The sons of Leah: Reuben, Jacob's firstborn, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun. 24The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin. 25And the sons of Bilhah, Rachel's handmaid: Dan and Naphtali. 26And the sons of Zilpah, Leah's handmaid: Gad and Asher. These [are] the sons of Jacob, who were born to him in Padanaram. 27And Jacob came unto Isaac, his father, unto Mamre, unto the city of Arbah, which [is] Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac sojourned. 28And the days of Isaac were one hundred and eighty years. 29And Isaac expired and died and was gathered unto his people, [being] old and full of days, and his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.:
