Genesis 35:5-7

5As they journeyedH5265, there was 12a greatH430 terrorH2847 upon the citiesH5892 whichH834 were aroundH5439 them, and they did not pursueH7291 the sonsH1121 of JacobH3290.

6So JacobH3290 cameH935 to 3LuzH3870 (that is, BethelH1008), whichH834 is in the landH776 of CanaanH3667, he and allH3605 the peopleH5971 whoH834 were with him.

74He builtH1129 an altarH4196 thereH8033, and calledH7121 the placeH4725 5El-bethelH416, becauseH3588 thereH8033 GodH430 had revealedH1540 Himself to him when he fledH1272 6from his brotherH251.
