And he said, "Thou shalt be called Jacob no more, but Israel. For thou hast wrestled with God and with men and hast prevailed."

Wherefore the children of Israel eat not of the sinew that shrank under the thigh, unto this day: because that he smote Jacob under the thigh in the sinew that shrank.

And he made there an altar, and there called upon the mighty God of Israel.

And the sons of Jacob came out of the field as soon as they heard it, for it grieved them, and they were not a little wroth, because he had wrought folly in Israel, in that he had lain with Jacob's daughter, which thing ought not to be done.

and said unto him, "Thy name is Jacob. Notwithstanding thou shalt be no more called Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name." And so was his name called Israel.

And Israel went thence and pitched up his tent beyond the tower of Eder.

And it chanced, as Israel dwelt in that land, that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father's concubine, and it came to Israel's ear. The sons of Jacob were twelve in number.

These are the kings that reigned in the land of Edom, before there reigned any king among the children of Israel.

And Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, because he begat him in his old age, and he made him a coat of many colors.

and Israel said unto Joseph, "Do not thy brethren keep in Shechem? Come, that I may send thee to them." And he answered, "Here am I."

And the sons of Israel came to buy corn among other that came, for there was dearth also in the land of Canaan.

And Israel said, "Wherefore dealt ye so cruelly with me, as to tell the man that ye had yet another brother?"

Then said Judah unto Israel his father, "Send the lad with me, and we will rise and go, that we may live and not die: both we, thou and also our children.

Then their father Israel said unto them, "If it must needs be so now: then do thus, take of the best fruits of the land in your vessels, and bring the man a present, a courtesy balm, and a courtesy of honey, spices and myrrh, dates and almonds.

And the children of Israel did even so. And Joseph gave them chariots at the commandment of Pharaoh, and gave them victuals also to spend by the way.

And Israel said, "I have enough, if Joseph my son be yet alive: I will go and see him, yer that I die."

Israel took his journey with all that he had, and came unto Beersheba and offered offerings unto the God of his father Isaac.

And God said unto Israel in a vision by night, and called unto him, "Jacob, Jacob." And he answered, "Here am I."

And Jacob rose up from Beersheba. And the sons of Israel carried Jacob their father, and their children and their wives in the chariots which Pharaoh had sent to carry him.

These are the names of the children of Israel which came into Egypt, both Jacob and his sons: Reuben, Jacob's first son.

And Joseph made ready his chariot and went to meet Israel his father unto Goshen, and presented himself unto him, and fell on his neck and wept upon his neck a good while.

And Israel said unto Joseph, "Now I am content to die, insomuch I have seen thee, that thou art yet alive."

And Israel dwelt in Egypt, even in the country of Goshen. And they had their possessions therein, and they grew and multiplied exceedingly.

When the time drew nigh that Israel must die, he sent for his son Joseph and said unto him, "If I have found grace in thy sight, put thy hand under my thigh and deal mercifully and truly with me, that thou bury me not in Egypt:

And he said, "Swear unto me." And he sware unto him. And then Israel bowed him unto the bed's head.

Then was it said unto Jacob, "Behold, thy son Joseph cometh unto thee." And Israel took his strength unto him, and sat up on the bed,

And Israel beheld Joseph's sons, and said, "What are these?"

And the eyes of Israel were dim for age, so that he could not see. And he brought them to him, and he kissed them and embraced them.

And Israel said unto Joseph, "I had not thought to have seen thy face, and yet lo, God hath showed it me and also thy seed."

Then took Joseph them both: Ephraim in his righthand, toward Israel's lefthand, and Manasseh in his lefthand, toward Israel's righthand, and brought them unto him.

And Israel stretched out his righthand and laid it upon Ephraim's head which was the younger, and his lefthand upon Manasseh's head, crossing his hands; for Manasseh was the elder.

And Israel said unto Joseph, "Behold, I die. And God shall be with you and bring you again unto the land of your fathers.

Gather you together and hear ye sons of Jacob, and hearken unto Israel your father.

Cursed be their wrath for it was strong, and their fierceness for it was cruel. I will therefore divide them in Jacob, and scatter them in Israel.

Dan shall judge his people, as one of the tribes of Israel.

and yet his bow bode fast, and his arms and his hands were strong, by the hands of the mighty God of Jacob: out of him shall come a herdsman, a stone in Israel.

All these are the twelve tribes of Israel, and this is that which their father spake unto them when he blessed them, every man with a several blessing.

And Joseph commanded his servants that were physicians, to embalm his father, and the physicians embalmed Israel forty days long,

And Joseph took an oath of the children of Israel and said, "God will not fail but visit you: see therefore that ye carry my bones hence."
