Jacob’s Return to Bethel
1Then God said to Jacob, “Arise, go up to ⚓Bethel and dwell there; and make an altar there to God, ⚓who appeared to you ⚓when you fled from the face of Esau your brother.”
2And Jacob said to his ⚓household and to all who were with him, “Put away ⚓the foreign gods that are among you, ⚓purify yourselves, and change your garments.
3Then let us arise and go up to Bethel; and I will make an altar there to 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 Jacob all the foreign gods which were in their hands, and the ⚓earrings which were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under ⚓the terebinth tree which was by Shechem.
5And they journeyed, and ⚓the terror of God was upon the cities that were all around them, and they did not pursue the sons of Jacob.
6So Jacob came to ⚓Luz (that is, Bethel), which is in the land of Canaan, he and all the people who were with him.
7And he ⚓built an altar there and called the place El Bethel, because ⚓there God appeared to him when he fled from the face of his brother.
8Now ⚓Deborah, Rebekah’s nurse, died, and she was buried below Bethel under the terebinth tree. So the name of it was called Allon Bachuth.
9Then ⚓God appeared to Jacob again, when he came from Padan Aram, and ⚓blessed him.
10And God said to him, “Your name is Jacob; ⚓your name shall not be called Jacob anymore, ⚓but Israel shall be your name.” So He called his name Israel.
11Also God said to him: ⚓“I am God Almighty. ⚓Be fruitful and multiply; ⚓a nation and a company of nations shall proceed from you, and kings shall come from your body.
12The ⚓land which I gave Abraham and Isaac I give to you; and to your descendants after you I give this land.”
13Then God ⚓went up from him in the place where He talked with him.
14So Jacob ⚓set up a pillar in the place where He talked with him, a pillar of stone; and he poured a drink offering on it, and he poured oil on it.
15And Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him, ⚓Bethel.
Death of Rachel
16Then they journeyed from Bethel. And when there was but a little distance to go to Ephrath, Rachel labored in childbirth, and she had hard labor.
17Now it came to pass, when she was in hard labor, that the midwife said to her, “Do not fear; ⚓you will have this son also.”
18And so it was, as her soul was departing (for she died), that she called his name Ben-Oni; but his father called him Benjamin.
19So ⚓Rachel died and was buried on the way to ⚓Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).
20And Jacob set a pillar on her grave, which is the pillar of Rachel’s grave ⚓to this day.
21Then Israel journeyed and pitched his tent beyond ⚓the tower of Eder.
22And it happened, when Israel dwelt in that land, that Reuben went and ⚓lay with Bilhah his father’s concubine; and Israel heard about it.
Jacob’s Twelve Sons
Now the sons of Jacob were twelve:
23the sons of Leah were⚓Reuben, Jacob’s firstborn, and Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun;
24the sons of Rachel were Joseph and Benjamin;
25the sons of Bilhah, Rachel’s maidservant, were Dan and Naphtali;
26and the sons of Zilpah, Leah’s maidservant, were Gad and Asher. These were the sons of Jacob who were born to him in Padan Aram.
Death of Isaac
27Then Jacob came to his father Isaac at ⚓Mamre, or ⚓Kirjath Arba (that is, Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had dwelt.
28Now the days of Isaac were one hundred and eighty years.
29So Isaac breathed his last and died, and ⚓was gathered to his people, being old and full of days. And ⚓his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.
