1. God said to Jacob, "Get ready and go to Bethel to live. Make an altar there to God, Who showed Himself to you when you ran away from your brother Esau."
|
1. And God H430 said H559 unto H413 Jacob H3290 , Arise H6965 , go up H5927 to Bethel H1008 , and dwell H3427 there H8033 : and make H6213 there H8033 an altar H4196 unto God H410 , that appeared H7200 unto H413 thee when thou fleddest H1272 from the face H4480 H6440 of Esau H6215 thy brother H251 .
|
|
2. So Jacob said to those of his house and all who were with him, "Put away the strange gods that are among you. Make yourselves clean and change your clothes.
|
2. Then Jacob H3290 said H559 unto H413 his household H1004 , and to H413 all H3605 that H834 were with H5973 him , Put away H5493 H853 the strange H5236 gods H430 that H834 are among H8432 you , and be clean H2891 , and change H2498 your garments H8071 :
|
|
3. Then let us get ready and go to Bethel. I will make an altar there to God, Who answered me in the day of my trouble, and was with me every place I went."
|
3. And let us arise H6965 , and go up H5927 to Bethel H1008 ; and I will make H6213 there H8033 an altar H4196 unto God H410 , who answered H6030 me in the day H3117 of my distress H6869 , and was H1961 with H5973 me in the way H1870 which H834 I went H1980 .
|
|
4. So they gave to Jacob all the strange gods they had, and the gold objects which they wore in their ears. And Jacob hid them under the tree near Shechem.
|
4. And they gave H5414 unto H413 Jacob H3290 H853 all H3605 the strange H5236 gods H430 which H834 were in their hand H3027 , and all their earrings H5141 which H834 were in their ears H241 ; and Jacob H3290 hid H2934 them under H8478 the oak H424 which H834 was by H5973 Shechem H7927 .
|
|
5. As they traveled, much fear from God came upon the cities around them. So the people of the land did not go against the sons of Jacob.
|
5. And they journeyed H5265 : and the terror H2847 of God H430 was H1961 upon H5921 the cities H5892 that H834 were round about H5439 them , and they did not H3808 pursue H7291 after H310 the sons H1121 of Jacob H3290 .
|
|
6. So Jacob and all the people who were with him came to Luz (that is, Bethel) in the land of Canaan.
|
6. So Jacob H3290 came H935 to Luz H3870 , which H834 is in the land H776 of Canaan H3667 , that H1931 is , Bethel H1008 , he H1931 and all H3605 the people H5971 that H834 were with H5973 him.
|
|
7. He built an altar there, and gave the place the name El-bethel. Because God had shown Himself to him there, when Jacob ran away from his brother.
|
7. And he built H1129 there H8033 an altar H4196 , and called H7121 the place H4725 El H416 -bethel: because H3588 there H8033 God H430 appeared H1540 unto H413 him , when he fled H1272 from the face H4480 H6440 of his brother H251 .
|
|

|
|
9. When Jacob came from Paddan-aram, God showed Himself to him again and brought good to him.
|
9. And God H430 appeared H7200 unto H413 Jacob H3290 again H5750 , when he came H935 out of Padan H4480 H6307 -aram , and blessed H1288 him.
|
|
10. God said to him, "Your name is Jacob. You will not be called Jacob any longer, but Israel will be your name." So his name was Israel.
|
10. And God H430 said H559 unto him , Thy name H8034 is Jacob H3290 : thy name H8034 shall not H3808 be called H7121 any more H5750 Jacob H3290 , but H3588 H518 Israel H3478 shall be H1961 thy name H8034 : and he called H7121 H853 his name H8034 Israel H3478 .
|
|
11. Then God said to him, "I am the All-powerful God. Have many children and add to your number. A nation and a group of nations will come from you. Kings will come from you.
|
11. And God H430 said H559 unto him, I H589 am God H410 Almighty H7706 : be fruitful H6509 and multiply H7235 ; a nation H1471 and a company H6951 of nations H1471 shall be H1961 of H4480 thee , and kings H4428 shall come out H3318 of thy loins H4480 H2504 ;
|
|
12. I will give you the land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac. This land I will give to your children and their children's children after you."
|
12. And the land H776 which H834 I gave H5414 Abraham H85 and Isaac H3327 , to thee I will give H5414 it , and to thy seed H2233 after H310 thee will I give H5414 H853 the land H776 .
|
|
13. Then God went up from him in the place where He had spoken with him.
|
13. And God H430 went up H5927 from H4480 H5921 him in the place H4725 where H834 he talked H1696 with H854 him.
|
|
14. Jacob set up a pillar of stone in the place where He had spoken with him. And he poured a drink offering and also oil on it.
|
14. And Jacob H3290 set up H5324 a pillar H4676 in the place H4725 where H834 he talked H1696 with H854 him, even a pillar H4678 of stone H68 : and he poured H5258 a drink offering H5262 thereon H5921 , and he poured H3332 oil H8081 thereon H5921 .
|
|
15. So Jacob gave the place where God had spoken with him the name Bethel.
|
15. And Jacob H3290 called H7121 H853 the name H8034 of the place H4725 where H834 God H430 spoke H1696 with H854 him, Bethel H1008 .
|
|
16. Then they traveled from Bethel. When there was still a long way to go before coming to Ephrath, Rachel began to give birth. She suffered much pain.
|
16. And they journeyed H5265 from Bethel H4480 H1008 ; and there was H1961 but H5750 a little way H3530 H776 to come H935 to Ephrath H672 : and Rachel H7354 travailed H3205 , and she had hard H7185 labor H3205 .
|
|
17. And while she was suffering, the woman who was helping her said to her, "Do not be afraid. For now you have another son."
|
17. And it came to pass H1961 , when she was in hard H7185 labor H3205 , that the midwife H3205 said H559 unto her, Fear H3372 not H408 ; thou shalt have this H2088 son H1121 also H1571 .
|
|
18. As Rachel's soul was leaving, for she died, she gave him the name Benoni. But his father gave him the name Benjamin.
|
18. And it came to pass H1961 , as her soul H5315 was in departing H3318 , ( for H3588 she died H4191 ) that she called H7121 his name H8034 Ben H1126 -oni : but his father H1 called H7121 him Benjamin H1144 .

|
19. And Rachel H7354 died H4191 , and was buried H6912 in the way H1870 to Ephrath H672 , which H1931 is Bethlehem H1035 .
