Jacob Is Renamed Israel
9 Then God appeared to Jacob again when he came from Paddan-aram, and He (A)blessed him. 10 (B)And God said to him,
“Your name is Jacob;
Your name shall no longer be called Jacob,
But Israel shall be your name.”
Thus He called his name Israel. 11 God also said to him,
“I am [a](C)God Almighty;
(D)Be fruitful and multiply;
A nation and an (E)assembly of nations shall [b]come from you,
And (F)kings shall [c]come forth from your loins.
12 (G)And the land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac,
I will give it to you,
And I will give the land to your seed after you.”
13 Then (H)God went up from him in the place where He had spoken with him. 14 And Jacob set up (I)a 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, [d](J)Bethel.
