Genesis 35:9-15
1599 Geneva Bible
9 Again God appeared unto Jacob, after he came to Padan Aram, and blessed him.
10 Moreover God said unto him, Thy name is Jacob: thy name shall be no more called Jacob, but (A)Israel shall be thy name: and he called his name Israel.
11 And God said unto him, I am God [a]all-sufficient: grow, and multiply: a nation and a multitude of nations shall spring of thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins.
12 Also I will give the land, which I gave to Abraham and Isaac, unto thee: and unto thy seed after thee will I give that land.
13 So God [b]ascended from him in the place where he had talked with him.
14 And Jacob set up a pillar in the place where he talked with him, a pillar of stone, and poured drink offerings thereon: also he poured oil thereon.
15 And Jacob called the name of that place where God spake with him, Bethel.
