| Gen. 35:2 |
Then Jacob said to his household and to all who were with him, Put away the foreign gods that are among you, and purify yourselves, and change your garments. |
| Gen. 35:3 |
And let us rise up and go up to Bethel, that I may make an altar there to the God who answered me in the day of my distress and has been with me wherever I have gone. |
| Gen. 35:4 |
So they gave Jacob all the foreign gods which were in their hand and the rings which were in their ears, and Jacob hid them under the oak that was near Shechem. |
| Gen. 35:5 |

And God appeared to Jacob again when he came from Paddan-aram and blessed him. |
| Gen. 35:10 |
And God said to him, Your name is Jacob; / Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, / But Israel shall be your name. Thus He called his name Israel. |
| Gen. 35:11 |
And God said to him, I am the All-sufficient God: / Be fruitful and multiply; / A nation and a company of nations shall come from you, / And kings shall come forth from your loins. |
| Gen. 35:12 |
And the land which I gave to Abraham and to Isaac, / I will give to you; / And I will give the land to your seed after you. |
| Gen. 35:13 |
Then God went up from him in the place where He had spoken with him. |
| Gen. 35:14 |
And Jacob set up a pillar in the place where He had spoken with him, a pillar of stone; and he poured out a drink offering on it and poured oil on it. |
| Gen. 35:15 |
And Jacob called the name of the place where God had spoken with him Bethel. |
| Gen. 35:16 |
And they journeyed from Bethel. And while there was still some distance to come to Ephrath, Rachel began to give birth; and she had hard labor. |
| Gen. 35:17 |
And while she was in hardest labor, the midwife said to her, Do not be afraid, for now you have [another] son. |
| Gen. 35:18 |
And as her soul was departing (for she died), she called his name Ben-oni; but his father called him Benjamin. |
| Gen. 35:19 |
So Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem). |
| Gen. 35:20 |

| Gen. 35:21 |

The sons of Leah: Reuben, Jacob's firstborn, and Simeon and Levi and Judah and Issachar and Zebulun. |
| Gen. 35:24 |
The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin. |
| Gen. 35:25 |
And the sons of Bilhah, Rachel's female servant: Dan and Naphtali. |
| Gen. 35:26 |
And the sons of Zilpah, Leah's female servant: Gad and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob, who were born to him in Paddan-aram. |
| Gen. 35:27 |
