6. So Jacob came to Luz, which is in the land of Canaan (that is Beth-el) he and all the people that were with him.
7. And he erected there an altar, and called the place El-beth-el; because there God appeared to him, when he fled from the face of his brother.
8. But Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, died, and she was buried beneath Beth-el, under an oak: and the name of it was called Allon-bachuth.
9. And God appeared to Jacob again when he came out of Padan-aram; and blessed him.
10. And God said to him, Thy name is Jacob: thy name shall not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name; and he called his name Israel.
11. And God said to him, I am God Almighty: be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a multitude of nations shall spring from thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins.
12. And the land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac, to thee I will give it, and to thy seed after thee will I give the land.
13. And God went up from him, in the place where he talked with him.
14. And Jacob set up a pillar in the place where he talked with him, even a pillar of stone: and he poured a drink-offering thereon, and he poured oil thereon.
15. And Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him, Beth-el.
16. And they journeyed from Beth-el; and there was but a little way to come to Ephrath: and Rachel travailed, and she had hard labor.
17. And it came to pass when she was in hard labor, that the midwife said to her, Fear not; thou shalt have this son also.
