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