Genesis 33:16-20 Amplified Bible (AMP)

16. So Esau turned back that day on his way to Seir.

17. But Jacob journeyed to Succoth and built himself a house and made booths or places of shelter for his livestock; so the name of the place is called Succoth [booths].

18. When Jacob came from Padan-aram, he arrived safely and in peace at the town of Shechem, in the land of Canaan, and pitched his tents before the [enclosed] town.

19. Then he bought the piece of land on which he had encamped from the sons of Hamor, Shechem's father, for a hundred pieces of money.

20. There he erected an altar and called it El-Elohe-Israel [God, the God of Israel].
