10. God said to him:Your name is Jacob.You will no longer be named Jacob,but Israel will be your name.So he was named Israel.
11. Then God said to him: I am God Almighty; be fruitful and multiply. A nation, indeed an assembly of nations, will stem from you, and kings will issue from your loins.
12. The land I gave to Abraham and Isaac I will give to you; and to your descendants after you I will give the land.
13. Then God departed from him.
14. In the place where God had spoken with him, Jacob set up a sacred pillar, a stone pillar, and upon it he made a libation and poured out oil.
15. Jacob named the place where God spoke to him Bethel.
16. Then they departed from Bethel; but while they still had some distance to go to Ephrath, Rachel went into labor and suffered great distress.
