Berean Standard Bible
Genesis 35:5-7
5As they set out, a terror from God fell over the surrounding cities, so that they did not pursue Jacob’s sons. 6So Jacob and everyone with him arrived in Luz (that is, Bethel) in the land of Canaan. 7There Jacob built an altar, and he called that place El-bethel,1 because it was there that God had revealed Himself to Jacob as he fled from his brother.
