Back to Bethel
And God said to Jacob: Get up and go up to Bethel and settle there. And make an altar there to the God who appeared to you when you were running from your brother Esau. Then Jacob said to his household and everyone with him: Get rid of the foreign gods among you. Clean yourselves up and change your clothes. Let's get up and go to Bethel. I'll make an altar there to the God who answered me when I was in trouble and who was with me wherever I went. And they handed Jacob all the foreign gods they had, and the rings out of their ears. And Jacob buried them under the oak by Shechem. And they travelled on. And the dread of God was on the towns round about them, and nobody went after the sons of Jacob. So Jacob came to Luz in the land of Canaan — that's Bethel — him and everyone with him. And he built an altar there and called the place Elbethel, because that's where God appeared to him when he was running from his brother. But Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, died, and she was buried below Bethel under an oak. And they called it Allonbachuth. And God appeared to Jacob again when he came out of Padanaram, and blessed him. And God said to him: Your name is Jacob. Your name won't be Jacob any more. Israel will be your name. And he called him Israel. And God said to him: I am God Almighty. Be fruitful and multiply. A nation and a company of nations will come from you, and kings will come out of your body. And the land I gave Abraham and Isaac, I'll give to you, and to your offspring after you I'll give the land. And God went up from him in the place where he'd talked with him. And Jacob stood up a pillar in the place where he'd talked with him, a pillar of stone. And he poured out a drink offering on it, and poured oil on it. And Jacob called the place where God spoke with him Bethel.
And God said to Jacob: Get up, go to Bethel and live there. And make an altar there to God, who showed himself to you when you ran from Esau your brother. Then Jacob said to his household and to everyone with him: Put away the strange gods among you, and be clean and change your clothes. And let's get up and go to Bethel. And I'll make an altar there to God, who answered me in the day of my trouble and was with me in the way I went. And they gave Jacob all the strange gods that were in their hand, and all their earrings that were in their ears. And Jacob hid them under the oak by Shechem. And they set out. And the terror of God was on the towns round them, and they didn't chase after the sons of Jacob. So Jacob came to Luz, which is in the land of Canaan, that's Bethel, he and all the people with him. And he built an altar there and called the place El Bethel, because God showed himself to him there when he ran from his brother. But Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, died. And she was buried below Bethel under an oak. And its name was called Allon Bakuth. And God showed himself to Jacob again when he came out of Paddan Aram, and blessed him. And God said to him: Your name is Jacob. Your name won't be called Jacob any more, but Israel will be your name. And he called his name Israel. And God said to him: I'm God Almighty. Be fruitful and grow to be many. A nation and a company of nations will come from you, and kings will come out of your body. And the land I gave Abraham and Isaac, I'll give it to you, and to your offspring after you I'll give the land. And God went up from him in the place where he talked with him. And 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. And Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him Bethel.
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. 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; 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. So Jacob came to Luz, which is in the land of Canaan, that is, Bethel, he and all the people that were with him. 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. But Deborah Rebekah’s nurse died, and she was buried beneath Bethel under an oak: and the name of it was called Allonbachuth. And God appeared unto Jacob again, when he came out of Padanaram, and blessed him. 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. 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. 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. And Jacob called the name of the place where God spake with him, Bethel.
And God said to Jacob: Get up and go up to Bethel and settle there. And make an altar there to the God who appeared to you when you were running from your brother Esau.

The death of Rachel
And they travelled on from Bethel. And there was still some way to go to Ephrath when Rachel went into labour, and she had a hard time of it. And while she was in hard labour, the midwife said to her: Don't be frightened. You'll have this son too. And as her life was going from her, because she died, she called him Benoni. But his father called him Benjamin. And Rachel died, and was buried on the way to Ephrath, which is Bethlehem. And Jacob set a pillar on her grave. That's the pillar of Rachel's grave to this day.
