* And God said unto Jacob Ya #aqob #, Arise , go up to Bethel Beyth -#El #, and dwell there : and make there an altar unto God , that appeared unto thee when thou fleddest from the face of Esau thy brother . * 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 : * And let us arise , and go up to Bethel Beyth -#El #; 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 . * 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 . * 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 Ya #aqob #. * So Jacob came to Luz , which is in the land of Canaan K @na #an #, that is , Bethel Beyth -#El #, he and all the people that were with him . * And he built there an altar , and called the place Elbethel #El Beyth -#El #: because there God appeared unto him , when he fled from the face of his brother . * But Deborah Rebekahs nurse died , and she was buried beneath Bethel Beyth -#El # under an oak : and the name of it was called Allonbachuth #Allown . * And God appeared unto Jacob again , when he came out of Padanaram , and blessed him . * And God said unto him , Thy name is Jacob Ya #aqob #: thy name shall not be called any more Jacob Ya #aqob #, but Israel shall be thy name : and he called his name Israel Yisra #el #. * 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 ; * 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 . * And God went up from him in the place where he talked with him .
