7. And he built an altar there, and he called the name of that place, 'House of God.' For there God appeared to him when he fled from his brother.
8. About the same time, Deborah, the nurse of Rebekah, died, and she was buried at the base of Bethel, under an oak tree. And the name of that place was called, 'Oak of Weeping.'
9. Then God appeared again to Jacob, after he returned from Mesopotamia of Syria, and he blessed him,
10. saying: "You will no longer be called Jacob, for your name shall be Israel." And he called him Israel,
11. and he said to him: "I am Almighty God: increase and multiply. Tribes and peoples of nations will be from you, and kings will go forth from your loins.
12. And the land that I gave to Abraham and Isaac, I will give to you, and to your offspring after you."
13. And he withdrew from him.
14. In truth, he set up a monument of stone, in the place where God had spoken to him, pouring out libations over it, and pouring oil,
15. and he called the name of that place, 'Bethel.'
16. Then, departing from there, he arrived in springtime at the land that leads to Ephrath. And there, when Rachel was giving birth,
17. because it was a difficult birth, she began to be in danger. And the midwife said to her, "Do not be afraid, for you will have this son also."
18. Then, when her life was departing because of the pain, and death was now imminent, she called the name of her son Benoni, that is, the son of my pain. Yet truly, his father called him Benjamin, that is, the son of the right hand.
19. And so Rachel died, and she was buried in the way that leads to Ephrath: this place is Bethlehem.
20. And Jacob erected a monument over her sepulcher. This is the monument to Rachel's tomb, even to the present day.
21. Departing from there, he pitched his tent beyond the Tower of the Flock.
22. And when he was living in that region, Reuben went out, and he slept with Bilhah the concubine of his father, which was not such a small matter as to be hidden from him. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve.
23. The sons of Leah: Reuben the first born, and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun.
