¹¹And said to him: I am God almighty, increase thou and be multiplied. Nations and peoples of nations shall be from thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins.

¹²And the land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac, I will give to thee, and to thy seed after thee.

¹³And he departed from him.

¹⁴But he set up a monument of stone, in the place where God had spoken to him: pouring drink offerings upon it, and pouring oil thereon:

¹⁵And calling the name of that place Bethel.

¹⁶And going forth from thence, he came in the spring time to the land which leadeth to Ephrata: wherein when Rachel was in travail,

¹⁷By reason of her hard labour, she began to be in danger, and the midwife said to her: Fear not, for thou shalt have this son also.

¹⁸And when her soul was departing for pain, and death was now at hand, she called the name of her son Benoni, that is, the son of my pain: but his father called him Benjamin, that is, the son of the right hand.

¹⁹So Rachel died, and was buried in the highway that leadeth to Ephrata, this is Bethlehem.

Genesis 35:10: And God said to him, “Your name is Jacob; no longer shall your name be called Jacob, but Israel shall be your name.” So he called his name Israel.
