Genesis 35:5-7
New King James Version
5 And they journeyed, and (A)the terror of God was upon the cities that were all around them, and they did not pursue the sons of Jacob. 6 So Jacob came to (B)Luz (that is, Bethel), which is in the land of Canaan, he and all the people who were with him. 7 And he (C)built an altar there and called the place [a]El Bethel, because (D)there God appeared to him when he fled from the face of his brother.

Vietnamese Bible: Easy-to-Read Version
5 Gia-cốp và các con rời nơi đó. Thượng Đế khiến cho dân cư các thành gần đó hoảng sợ nên không ai dám đuổi theo họ. 6 Gia-cốp cùng những người theo mình đi đến Lu-xơ, nay gọi là Bê-tên, trong xứ Ca-na-an. 7 Gia-cốp dựng một bàn thờ và đặt tên là “Thượng Đế của Bê-tên,” theo tên Thượng Đế vì Thượng Đế đã hiện ra cùng ông khi ông đang chạy trốn khỏi anh mình.
