Jacob Moves to Bethel

1 Then God° said° to Jacob°, “Arise°, go° up to aBethel° and Ilive° there°, and make° an altar° there° to bGod°, who appeared° to you cwhen you fled° IIfrom your brother° Esau°.” 2 So Jacob° said° to his ahousehold° and to all° who° were with him, “Put° away° bthe foreign° gods° which° are among° you, and cpurify° yourselves and change° your garments°; 3 and let us arise° and go° up to Bethel°, and I will make° aan altar° there° to God°, bwho answered° me in the day° of my distress° and chas been° with me Iwherever°° I have gone°.” 4 So they gave° to Jacob° all° the foreign° gods° which° Ithey had° and the rings° which° were in their ears°, and Jacob° hid° them under° the IIoak° which° was near° Shechem°.

9 ¶ Then God° appeared° to Jacob° again° when he came° from Paddan-aram°, and He ablessed° him. 10 aGod° said° to him,
  “Your name° is Jacob°;
  IYou shall no° longer° be called° Jacob°,
  But Israel° shall be your name°.”
Thus He called° IIhim Israel°. 11 God° also said° to him,
  “I am IaGod° Almighty°;
  bBe fruitful° and multiply°;
  A nation° and a ccompany° of nations° shall IIcome° from you,
  And dkings° shall IIcome° forth° from IIIyou.
  12aThe land° which° I gave° to Abraham° and Isaac°,
  I will give° it to you,
  And I will give° the land° to your Idescendants° after you.”
13 Then aGod° went° up from him in the place° where° He had spoken° with him. 14 Jacob° set° up aa pillar° in the place° where° He had spoken° with him, a pillar° of stone°, and he poured° out a drink° offering° on it; he also poured° oil° on it. 15 So Jacob° named°° the place° where°° God° had spoken° with him, IaBethel°.
