9 God appeared¹ to Jacob again, when he came from Paddan-aram, and ^tblessed him. 10 And God said to him, ^u“Your name is Jacob; ^vno longer shall your name be called Jacob, but Israel shall be your name.” So he called his name Israel. 11 And God said to him, “I am God ^wAlmighty:^{2 x}be fruitful and multiply. ^yA nation and a ^zcompany of nations shall come from you, and ^akings shall come from your own body.³ 12 ^bThe land that I gave to Abraham and Isaac I will give to you, and I will give the land ^cto your offspring after you.” 13 Then ^dGod went up from him in the place where he had spoken with him. 14 And Jacob ^eset up a pillar in the place where he had spoken with him, a pillar of stone. He poured out a ^fdrink offering on it and poured oil on it. 15 ^gSo Jacob called the name of the place where God had spoken with him Bethel.

16 Then they journeyed from Bethel. When they were still some distance⁴ from Ephrath, Rachel went into labor, and she had ^hhard labor. 17 And when her labor was at its hardest, the midwife said to her, “Do not fear, for you have ⁱanother son.” 18 And as her soul was departing (for she was dying), she called his name Ben-oni;⁵ but his father called him Benjamin.⁶ 19 So Rachel died, and she was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem), 20 and Jacob set up a pillar over her tomb. It is the pillar of ^jRachel’s tomb, which is there to this day. 21 Israel journeyed on and pitched his tent beyond the tower of Eder.

22 While Israel lived in that land, ^kReuben went and ^llay with Bilhah ^mhis father’s concubine. And Israel heard of it.

ⁿNow 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 The sons of Bilhah, Rachel’s servant: Dan and Naphtali. 26 The sons of Zilpah, Leah’s servant: Gad and Asher. These were the sons of Jacob ^owho were born to him in Paddan-aram.

27 And Jacob came to his father Isaac at Mamre, or Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had sojourned. 28 Now the days of Isaac were 180 years. 29 And Isaac breathed his last, and he died and was gathered to his people, ^pold and full of days. And ^qhis sons Esau and Jacob buried him.
