God appeared[a] to Jacob again, when he came from Paddan-aram, and blessed him. 10 And God said to him, “Your name is Jacob; (A)no longer shall your name be called Jacob, but (B)Israel shall be your name.” So he called his name Israel. 11 And God said to him, (C)“I am God Almighty:[b] be (D)fruitful and multiply. (E)A nation and a company of nations shall come from you, and kings shall come from your own body.[c] 12 (F)The land that I gave to Abraham and Isaac I will give to you, and I will give the land to your offspring after you.” 13 Then God (G)went up from him in the place where he had spoken with him. 14 And Jacob (H)set up a pillar in the place where he had spoken with him, a pillar of stone. He poured out a drink offering on it and poured oil on it. 15 So Jacob called the name of the place where God had spoken with him (I)Bethel.
