nkjv - Genesis:35

nkjv@Genesis:35:1 @ Then 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."

nkjv@Genesis:35:2 @ And 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.

nkjv@Genesis:35:3 @ Then 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."

nkjv@Genesis:35:4 @ So 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.

nkjv@Genesis:35:5 @ And 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.

nkjv@Genesis:35:6 @ So Jacob came to Luz (that is, Bethel), which is in the land of Canaan, he and all the people who were with him.

nkjv@Genesis:35:7 @ And 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.

nkjv@Genesis:35:8 @ Now Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, died, and she was buried below Bethel under the terebinth tree. So the name of it was called Allon Bachuth.

nkjv@Genesis:35:9 @ Then God appeared to Jacob again, when he came from Padan Aram, and blessed him.

nkjv@Genesis:35:10 @ And 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.

nkjv@Genesis:35:11 @ Also 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.

nkjv@Genesis:35:12 @ The land which I gave Abraham and Isaac I give to you; and to your descendants after you I give this land."

nkjv@Genesis:35:13 @ Then God went up from him in the place where He talked with him.

nkjv@Genesis:35:14 @ So 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.

nkjv@Genesis:35:15 @ And Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him, Bethel.

nkjv@Genesis:35:16 @ Then 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.

nkjv@Genesis:35:17 @ Now 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."

nkjv@Genesis:35:18 @ And so it was, as her soul was departing (for she died), that she called his name Ben-Oni; but his father called him Benjamin.

nkjv@Genesis:35:19 @ So Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).

nkjv@Genesis:35:20 @ And Jacob set a pillar on her grave, which is the pillar of Rachel's grave to this day.

nkjv@Genesis:35:21 @ Then Israel journeyed and pitched his tent beyond the tower of Eder.

nkjv@Genesis:35:22 @ And it happened, when Israel dwelt in that land, that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father's concubine; and Israel heard about it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve:

nkjv@Genesis:35:23 @ the sons of Leah were Reuben, Jacob's firstborn, and Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun;

nkjv@Genesis:35:24 @ the sons of Rachel were Joseph and Benjamin;

nkjv@Genesis:35:25 @ the sons of Bilhah, Rachel's maidservant, were Dan and Naphtali;

nkjv@Genesis:35:26 @ and 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.

nkjv@Genesis:35:27 @ Then Jacob came to his father Isaac at Mamre, or Kirjath Arba (that is, Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had dwelt.

nkjv@Genesis:35:28 @ Now the days of Isaac were one hundred and eighty years.

nkjv@Genesis:35:29 @ So 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.
