1And God said unto Jacob: 'Arise, go up to Beth-el, and dwell there; and make there an altar unto God, who appeared unto thee when thou didst flee from the face of Esau thy brother.'
2To pongah Jakob mah a imthung takoh hoi anih khae kaom kaminawk boih khaeah, Nangcae salak ih prae kalah sithawnawk to va o boih ah, ciimcai oh loe, khukbuen to angkraih oh.
2Then Jacob said unto his household, and to all that were with him: 'Put away the strange gods that are among you, and purify yourselves, and change your garments;
3Angthawk oh, Bethel ah caeh o tahang si; raihaih ka tongh na niah ka lok pathimkung hoi ka caehhaih loklam ah kaom thuih Sithaw khaeah, to ih ahmuen ah hmaicam to ka sak han, tiah a naa.
3and let us arise, and go up to Beth-el; and I will make there an altar unto God, who answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me in the way which I went.'
4To pongah nihcae ban ah kaom kalah sithawnawk boih, nihcae naa pong ih naa tangkraengnawk to Jakob khaeah paek o boih; to hmuennawk to Jakob mah Shekem ih oak thing tlim ah a phum pae.
4And they gave unto Jacob all the foreign gods which were in their hand, and the rings which were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the terebinth which was by Shechem.
5To pacoengah a caeh o; nihcae taeng ih vangpuinawk thungah kaom kaminawk nuiah Sithaw zithaih to phak pongah, mi mah doeh nihcae to patom thai ai.
5And they journeyed; and a terror of God was upon the cities that were round about them, and they did not pursue after the sons of Jacob.
6Jakob hoi angmah ih kaminawk loe Kanaan prae thung ih Luz (Bethel thuihhaih ih ni) vangpui ah phak o boih.
6So Jacob came to Luz, which is in the land of Canaan — the same is Beth-el — he and all the people that were with him.
7To ahmuen ah hmaicam maeto a sak, amya khae hoi cawnh naah to ahmuen ah Sithaw mah angphong thuih pongah, to ahmuen to El Bethel, tiah kawk.
7And he built there an altar, and called the place El-beth-el, because there God was revealed unto him, when he fled from the face of his brother.

10And God said unto 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.

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

17And it came to pass, when she was in hard labour, that the mid-wife said unto her: 'Fear not; for this also is a son for thee.'

22And it came to pass, while Israel dwelt in that land, that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father's concubine; and Israel heard of it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve:
