Genesis 35
Young's Literal Translation
35 And God saith unto Jacob, `Rise, go up to Bethel, and dwell there, and make there an altar to God, who appeared unto thee in thy fleeing from the face of Esau thy brother.'
2 And Jacob saith unto his household, and unto all who [are] with him, `Turn aside the gods of the stranger which [are] in your midst, and cleanse yourselves, and change your garments;
3 and we rise, and go up to Bethel, and I make there an altar to God, who is answering me in the day of my distress, and is with me in the way that I have gone.'
4 And they give unto Jacob all the gods of the stranger that [are] in their hand, and the rings that [are] in their ears, and Jacob hideth them under the oak which [is] by Shechem;
5 and they journey, and the terror of God is on the cities which [are] round about them, and they have not pursued after the sons of Jacob.
6 And Jacob cometh in to Luz which [is] in the land of Canaan (it [is] Bethel), he and all the people who [are] with him,
7 and he buildeth there an altar, and proclaimeth at the place the God of Bethel: for there had God been revealed unto him, in his fleeing from the face of his brother.
8 And Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, dieth, and she is buried at the lower part of Bethel, under the oak, and he calleth its name `Oak of weeping.'
9 And God appeareth unto Jacob again, in his coming from Padan-Aram, and blesseth him;
10 and God saith to him, `Thy name [is] Jacob: thy name is no more called Jacob, but Israel is thy name;' and He calleth his name Israel.
11 And God saith to him, `I [am] God Almighty; be fruitful and multiply, a nation and an assembly of nations is from thee, and kings from thy loins go out;
12 and the land which I have given to Abraham and to Isaac -- to thee I give it, yea to thy seed after thee I give the land.'
13 And God goeth up from him, in the place where He hath spoken with him.
14 And Jacob setteth up a standing pillar in the place where He hath spoken with him, a standing pillar of stone, and he poureth on it an oblation, and he poureth on it oil;
15 and Jacob calleth the name of the place where God spake with him Bethel.
16 And they journey from Bethel, and there is yet a kibrath of land before entering Ephratha, and Rachel beareth, and is sharply pained in her bearing;
17 and it cometh to pass, in her being sharply pained in her bearing, that the midwife saith to her, `Fear not, for this also [is] a son for thee.'
18 And it cometh to pass in the going out of her soul (for she died), that she calleth his name Ben-Oni; and his father called him Benjamin;
19 and Rachel dieth, and is buried in the way to Ephratha, which [is] Bethlehem,
20 and Jacob setteth up a standing pillar over her grave; which [is] the standing pillar of Rachel's grave unto this day.
21 And Israel journeyeth, and stretcheth out his tent beyond the tower of Edar;
22 and it cometh to pass in Israel's dwelling in that land, that Reuben goeth, and lieth with Bilhah his father's concubine; and Israel heareth.
23 And the sons of Jacob are twelve. Sons of Leah: Jacob's first-born Reuben, and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun.
24 Sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.
25 And sons of Bilhah, Rachel's maid-servant: Dan and Naphtali.
26 And sons of Zilpah, Leah's maid-servant: Gad and Asher. These [are] sons of Jacob, who have been born to him in Padan-Aram.
27 And Jacob cometh unto Isaac his father, at Mamre, the city of Arba (which [is] Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac have sojourned.
28 And the days of Isaac are a hundred and eighty years,
29 and Isaac expireth, and dieth, and is gathered unto his people, aged and satisfied with days; and bury him do Esau and Jacob his sons.
Genesis 35
Jubilee Bible 2000
35 ¶ And God said unto Jacob, Arise, go up to Bethel and dwell there and make there an altar unto God, who appeared unto thee when thou didst flee from the face of Esau, thy brother.
2 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:
3 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 has been with me in the way which I have gone.
4 So they gave unto Jacob all the strange gods which were in their power and all their earrings which were in their ears, and Jacob hid them under the oak which was by Shechem.
5 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.
6 ¶ And Jacob came to Luz, which is in the land of Canaan, that is, Bethel, he and all the people that were with him.
7 And there he built an altar and called the place Elbethel because there God had appeared unto him when he fled from the face of his brother.
8 Then Deborah, Rebekah’s nurse, died, and she was buried beneath Bethel under an oak, and the name of it was called Allonbachuth.
9 And God appeared unto Jacob again when he came out of Padanaram and blessed him.
10 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.
11 And God said unto him, I am God Almighty; be fruitful and multiply, a nation and a company of nations (Gentiles) shall come out of thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins;
12 and the land which I have given to Abraham and to Isaac, to thee will I give it and to thy seed after thee will I give the land.
13 And God went up from him in the place where he talked with him.
14 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 upon it, and he poured oil upon it.
15 And Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him, Bethel.
16 ¶ And they journeyed from Bethel, and there was but a little way to come to Ephrath when Rachel travailed, and she had hard labour.
17 And it came to pass when she was in hard labour, that the midwife said unto her, Fear not; thou shalt have this son also.
18 And it came to pass as her soul was departing, (for she died) that she called his name Benoni, but his father called him Benjamin.
19 Thus Rachel died and was buried in the way to Ephrath, which is Bethlehem.
20 And Jacob set a pillar upon her grave; that is the pillar of Rachel’s grave unto this day.
21 ¶ And Israel journeyed and spread his tent beyond the tower of Edar.
22 And it came to pass when Israel dwelt in that land, that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah, his father’s concubine, and Israel heard of it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve:
23 The sons of Leah: Reuben, Jacob’s firstborn, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun.
24 The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.
25 And the sons of Bilhah, Rachel’s handmaid: Dan and Naphtali.
26 And the sons of Zilpah, Leah’s handmaid: Gad and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob, who were born to him in Padanaram.
27 And Jacob came unto Isaac, his father, unto Mamre, unto the city of Arbah, which is Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac sojourned.
28 And the days of Isaac were one hundred and eighty years.
29 And Isaac expired and died and was gathered unto his people, being old and full of days, and his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.

Jacob vuelve a Betel
35 Dios dijo a Jacob:
— Ponte en camino, dirígete a Betel y quédate a vivir allí, donde levantarás un altar al Dios que se te apareció cuando huías de tu hermano Esaú.
2 Jacob dijo a su familia y a todos los que lo acompañaban:
— Deshaceos de todos los dioses extraños que tengáis, purificaos y cambiad de ropa. 3 Luego subiremos a Betel donde erigiré un altar al Dios que me escuchó en el peligro y me acompañó en mi viaje.
4 Ellos entregaron a Jacob todos los dioses extraños que conservaban, así como los pendientes que llevaban en las orejas, y Jacob los enterró al pie de la encina que hay junto a Siquén. 5 Después emprendieron camino, y nadie persiguió a los hijos de Jacob, porque Dios hizo que el pánico cundiese entre las ciudades de alrededor.
6 Jacob, con toda la gente que lo acompañaba, llegó a Luz, es decir, a Betel, en la tierra de Canaán. 7 Erigió allí un altar y puso a aquel lugar el nombre de Betel, porque allí se le había aparecido Dios cuando huía de su hermano.
8 Por esos días murió Débora, la nodriza de Rebeca, y la enterraron más abajo de Betel, al pie de una encina a la que llamaron Encina del Llanto.
9 Al volver Jacob de Parán Aram, se le apareció de nuevo Dios y lo bendijo 10 diciendo:
— Tu nombre es Jacob, pero ya no te llamarás así. De ahora en adelante te llamarás Israel.
Y lo llamó Israel. 11 Luego añadió:
— Yo soy el Todopoderoso; sé fecundo y multiplícate. Un pueblo, una muchedumbre de naciones nacerá de ti y habrá reyes entre tus vástagos. 12 La tierra que les di a Abrahán y a Isaac, te la doy a ti y a tu descendencia.
13 Y Dios se marchó del lugar donde había hablado con él. 14 Entonces Jacob erigió una piedra votiva en el lugar donde Dios le había hablado, vertió sobre ella una libación y la ungió con aceite. 15 Y Jacob llamó Betel al lugar donde le había hablado Dios.
Muerte de Raquel y de Isaac
16 Después partieron de Betel, y todavía faltaba un buen trecho para llegar a Efrata cuando Raquel dio a luz. Tuvo un parto muy complicado 17 y mientras daba a luz con dolores, la partera le iba diciendo:
— ¡Ánimo, que lo que viene es otro niño!
18 Con su último aliento —porque ya se estaba muriendo—, lo llamó Benoní, pero su padre lo llamó Benjamín.
19 Así murió Raquel a la que enterraron junto al camino de Efrata (hoy Belén). 20 Sobre su tumba Jacob construyó un monumento funerario, el mismo que está en la tumba de Raquel hasta el día de hoy.
21 Israel partió de allí y acampó más allá de Migdal Éder.
22 Mientras vivía en aquella región, Rubén fue y se acostó con Bilhá, concubina de su padre. Y Jacob se enteró.
Los hijos de Jacob (1 Cr 2,1-2)
Los hijos de Jacob fueron doce. 23 Hijos de Lía: Rubén, primogénito de Jacob, Simeón, Leví, Judá, Isacar y Zabulón. 24 Hijos de Raquel: José y Benjamín. 25 Hijos de Bilhá, la criada de Raquel: Dan y Neftalí. 26 Hijos de Zilpá, la criada de Lía: Gad y Aser.
Estos fueron los hijos que le nacieron a Jacob en Parán Aram.
Muerte y sepultura de Isaac
27 Jacob volvió a casa de su padre Isaac, a Mambré, cerca de Quiriat Arbá, es decir, Hebrón, donde habían vivido Abrahán e Isaac. 28 Tenía Isaac ciento ochenta años 29 cuando murió, anciano y colmado de días, y fue a reunirse con sus antepasados. Sus hijos Esaú y Jacob lo sepultaron.
