GE-35:1 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.
GE-35:2 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:
GE-35:3 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.
GE-35:4 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.
GE-35:5 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.
GE-35:6 So Jacob came to Luz, which [is] in the land of Canaan,
that [is],
Bethel, he and all the people that [were] with him.
GE-35:7 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.
GE-35:8 But Deborah Rebekah's nurse died, and she was buried
beneath Bethel
under an oak: and the name of it was called Allonbachuth.
GE-35:9 And God appeared unto Jacob again, when he came out of
Padanaram, and
blessed him.
GE-35:10 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.
GE-35:11 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;
GE-35:12 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.
GE-35:13 And God went up from him in the place where he talked
with him.
GE-35:14 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.
GE-35:15 And Jacob called the name of the place where God spake
with him,
Bethel.
GE-35:16 And they journeyed from Bethel; and there was but a
little way to
come to Ephrath: and Rachel travailed, and she had hard labour.
GE-35:17 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.
GE-35:18 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.
GE-35:19 And Rachel died, and was buried in the way to Ephrath,
which [is]
Bethlehem.
GE-35:20 And Jacob set a pillar upon her grave: that [is] the
pillar of
Rachel's grave unto this day.
GE-35:21 And Israel journeyed, and spread his tent beyond the
tower of Edar.
GE-35:22 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:
GE-35:23 The sons of Leah; Reuben, Jacob's firstborn, and
Simeon, and Levi,
and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun:
GE-35:24 The sons of Rachel; Joseph, and Benjamin:
GE-35:25 And the sons of Bilhah, Rachel's handmaid; Dan, and
Naphtali:
GE-35:26 And the sons of Zilpah, Leah's handmaid; Gad, and
Asher: these [are]
the sons of Jacob, which were born to him in Padanaram.
GE-35:27 And Jacob came unto Isaac his father unto Mamre, unto
the city of
Arbah, which [is] Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac sojourned.
GE-35:28 And the days of Isaac were an hundred and fourscore
years.
GE-35:29 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.
