1神對雅各說：「起來！上伯特利去，住在那裡；要在那裡築一座壇給 神，就是你逃避你哥哥以掃的時候向你顯現的那位。」Then God said to Jacob, “Arise, go up to Bethel, and settle there. Build an altar there to the God who appeared to you when you fled from your brother Esau.”
2雅各就對他家中的人並一切與他同在的人說：「你們要除掉你們中間的外邦神，也要，更換衣裳。So Jacob told his household and all who were with him, “Get rid of the foreign gods that are among you. Purify yourselves and change your garments.
3我們要起來，上伯特利去，在那裡我要築一座壇給 神，就是在我遭難的日子應允我的禱告、在我行的路上保佑我的那位。」Then let us arise and go to Bethel. I will build an altar there to God, who answered me in my day of distress. He has been with me wherever I have gone.”
4他們就把外邦人的神像和他們耳朵上的交給雅各；雅各都藏在示劍那裡的橡樹底下。So they gave Jacob all their foreign gods and all their earrings, and Jacob buried them under the oak near Shechem.
5他們便起行前往。 神使那周圍城邑的人都甚驚懼，就不追趕雅各的眾子了。As they set out, a terror from God fell over the surrounding cities, so that they did not pursue Jacob’s sons.
6於是雅各和一切與他同在的人到了迦南地的路斯，就是伯特利。So Jacob and everyone with him arrived in Luz (that is, Bethel) in the land of Canaan.
7他在那裡築了一座壇，就給那地方起名叫伊勒‧伯特利（就是伯特利之 神的意思）；因為他逃避他哥哥的時候， 神在那裡向他顯現。There Jacob built an altar, and he called that place El-bethel, because it was there that God had revealed Himself to Jacob as he fled from his brother.
8利百加的死了，就葬在伯特利下邊橡樹底下；那棵樹名叫亞倫‧巴古。Now Deborah, Rebekah’s nurse, died and was buried under the oak below Bethel. So Jacob named it Allon-bacuth.
9雅各從巴旦‧亞蘭回來， 神又向他顯現，賜福與他，After Jacob had returned from Paddan-aram, God appeared to him again and blessed him.
10且對他說：「你的名原是雅各，從今以後不要再叫雅各，要叫以色列。」這樣，他就改名叫以色列。And God said to him, “Though your name is Jacob, you will no longer be called Jacob. Instead, your name will be Israel.” So God named him Israel.
11神又對他說：「我是全能的 神；你要生養眾多，將來有一族和多國的民從你而生，又有君王從你而出。And God told him, “I am God Almighty. Be fruitful and multiply. A nation—even a company of nations—shall come from you, and kings shall descend from you.
12我所賜給亞伯拉罕和以撒的地，我要賜給你與你的後裔。」The land that I gave to Abraham and Isaac I will give to you, and I will give this land to your descendants after you.”
13神就從那與雅各說話的地方升上去了。Then God went up from the place where He had spoken with him.
14雅各便在那裡立了一根石柱，在柱子上，澆油。So Jacob set up a pillar in the place where God had spoken with him—a stone marker—and he poured out a drink offering on it and anointed it with oil.
15雅各就給那地方起名叫。Jacob called the place where God had spoken with him Bethel.
16他們從伯特利起行，離以法他還有一段路程，拉結臨產甚是艱難。Later, they set out from Bethel, and while they were still some distance from Ephrath, Rachel began to give birth, and her labor was difficult.
17正在艱難的時候，對她說：「不要怕，你又要得一個兒子了。」During her severe labor, the midwife said to her, “Do not be afraid, for you are having another son.”
18她將近於死，靈魂要走的時候，就給她兒子起名叫便‧俄尼；他父親卻給他起名叫。And with her last breath—for she was dying—she named him Ben-oni. But his father called him Benjamin.
19拉結死了，葬在以法他的路旁；以法他就是。So Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).
20雅各在她的墳上立了，就是拉結的墓碑，到今日還在。Jacob set up a pillar on her grave; it marks Rachel’s tomb to this day.
21以色列起行前往，在以得臺那邊支搭帳棚。Israel again set out and pitched his tent beyond the Tower of Eder.
22以色列住在那地的時候，流便去與他父親的妾辟拉同寢，以色列也聽見了。雅各共有十二個兒子。While Israel was living in that region, Reuben went in and slept with his father’s concubine Bilhah, and Israel heard about it. Jacob had twelve sons:
23利亞所生的是雅各的長子流便，還有西緬、利未、猶大、以薩迦、西布倫。The sons of Leah were Reuben the firstborn of Jacob, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun.
24拉結所生的是約瑟、便雅憫。The sons of Rachel were Joseph and Benjamin.
25拉結的使女辟拉所生的是但、拿弗他利。The sons of Rachel’s maidservant Bilhah were Dan and Naphtali.
26利亞的使女悉帕所生的是迦得、亞設。這是雅各在巴旦‧亞蘭所生的兒子。And the sons of Leah’s maidservant Zilpah were Gad and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob, who were born to him in Paddan-aram.
27雅各來到他父親以撒那裡，到了基列‧亞巴的幔利，乃是亞伯拉罕和以撒寄居的地方；基列‧亞巴就是希伯崙。Jacob returned to his father Isaac at Mamre, near Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had stayed.
28以撒共活了一百八十歲。And Isaac lived 180 years.
29以撒年紀老邁，日子滿足，氣絕而死，（原文是本民）那裡。他兩個兒子以掃、雅各把他埋葬了。Then he breathed his last and died and was gathered to his people, old and full of years. And his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.
