Genesis 35:6-15

6So JacobH3290 cameH935 to 1LuzH3870 (that is, BethelH1008), whichH834 is in the landH776 of CanaanH3667, he and allH3605 the peopleH5971 whoH834 were with him. 7Then 2he builtH1129 an altarH4196 thereH8033, and calledH7121 the placeH4725 3El-bethelH416, becauseH3588 thereH8033 GodH430 had revealedH1540 Himself to him when he fledH1272 4from his brotherH251. 8Now 5DeborahH1683, Rebekah’sH7259 nurseH3243, diedH4191, and she was buriedH6912 belowH4480H8478 BethelH1008 underH8478 the oakH437; and it was namedH7121H8034 6Allon-bacuthH439.

9Then GodH430 appearedH7200 to JacobH3290 againH5750 when he cameH935 from Paddan-aramH6307, and He 7blessedH1288 him. 108GodH430 saidH559 to him, “Your nameH8034 is JacobH3290; 9You shall noH3808 longerH5750 be calledH7121 JacobH3290, But IsraelH3478 shall be your nameH8034.” So He calledH7121 10him IsraelH3478. 11GodH430 also saidH559 to him, “I am 1112GodH410 AlmightyH7706; 13BeH6509 fruitfulH6509 and multiplyH7235; A nationH1471 and a 14multitudeH6951 of nationsH1471 shall 15comeH1961 from you, And 16kingsH4428 shall 17comeH3318 from 18you.12And 19the landH776 whichH834 I gaveH5414 to AbrahamH85 and IsaacH3327, I will giveH5414 to you, And I will giveH5414 the landH776 to your 20descendantsH2233 after you.” 13Then 21GodH430 wentH5927 upH5927 from him at the placeH4725 whereH834 He had spokenH1696 with him. 14So JacobH3290 setH5324 upH5324 22a memorialH4676 stoneH4676 in the placeH4725 whereH834 He had spokenH1696 with him, a memorialH4676 of stoneH68, and he pouredH5258 outH5258 a drinkH5262 offeringH5262 on it; he also pouredH3332 oilH8081 on it. 15And JacobH3290 namedH7121H8034 the placeH4725 whereH834H8033 GodH430 had spokenH1696 with him, 2324BethelH1008.
