And Jacob will call the name of the place, the face of God: for I saw God lace to face, and my soul shall be saved.

And while he was going past Peniel, the sun came up. And he went with unequal steps because of his damaged leg.

For this, the sons of Israel will not eat the sinew which dried up which is upon the hollow of the thigh, even till this day; for he touched upon the hollow of Jacob's thigh in the sinew which dried up.

And Jacob will lift up his eyes and will see, and behold Esau came, and with him four hundred men. And he will divide the children to Leah and to Rachel and to the two maids.

He put the maids and their children in front, Leah and her children after them, and Rachel and Joseph last of all.

Then he went out to meet Esau, passing in front of all of them, and bowed low to the ground seven times as he approached his brother.

And Esau will run to his meeting and he will embrace him and will fall upon his neck and will kiss him, and they will weep.

And he will lift up his eyes and will see the women and the children, and he will say, To whom these to thee? And he will say, The children with whom God compassionated thy servant.

And the maids will draw near, they and their children, and they will bow themselves.

Lea also and her children came and did their obeisance. And last of all came Joseph and Rachel and did their obeisance.

And he said, What meanest thou by all this drove which I met? And he said, These are to find grace in the sight of my lord.

And Esau will say, There is much to me, my brother; what is to thee shall be to thee.

Then said Jacob, Nay, I pray thee, if, I pray thee, have found favour in thine eyes, then thou wilt take my present at my hand, - For on this account, hath my seeing thy face been like seeing the face of God in that thou wast well-pleased with me.

receive, I pray thee, my blessing, which is brought to thee, because God hath favoured me, and because I have all things;' and he presseth on him, and he receiveth,

And he said, Let us take our journey, and let us go, and I will go before thee.

And he said unto him, My lord knoweth that the children are tender, and the flocks and herds with young are with me: and if men should overdrive them one day, all the flock will die.

Let my lord, I pray thee, pass over before his servant: and I will lead on softly, according as the cattle that goeth before me and the children be able to endure, until I come unto my lord unto Seir.

And Esau will say, I will leave now with thee, from the people which are to me; and he will say, For what this? I shall find grace in the eyes of my lord.

And Esau will turn back in that day on his way to Seir.

And Jacob will remove to the booths, and he will build for himself a house, and he made booths for his cattle; for this he called the name of the place Booths.

And Jacob will go to Shalem, a city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, in his going from Padan Aram; and he will encamp before the city.

And he will buy a part of the field where he spread there his tent, from the hand of the sons of Hamor, the father of Shechem, for a hundred lambs.

And he erected there an altar, and called it El-elohe-israel.

And Dinah, the daughter of Leah, which she brought forth to Jacob, will go forth to see the daughters of the land.

And Shechem will see her, the son of Hamor the Hivite, chief of the land; will take her, and lie with her, and will humble her.

And his soul will cleave to Dinah, the daughter of Jacob, and he will love the maiden, and he will speak to the heart of the maiden.

And Shechem will say to Hamor his father, saying, Take to me this maid for a wife.

Because Jacob learned that Shechem had dishonored his daughter Dinah while his sons were still out with their cattle on the open range, he remained silent until they returned.

And Hamor the father of Shechem will go forth to Jacob to speak to him.

And the sons of Jacob came from the field when they having heard: and the men will be grieved, and it will be kindled to them exceedingly because he did folly in Israel, to lie with Jacob's daughter; and thus it shall not be done.

But Hamor said to them, Shechem, my son, is full of desire for your daughter: will you then give her to him for a wife?

In this way you shall live with us; the country will be open to you; live and do business in it and acquire property and possessions in it.”

And Shechem said unto her father and unto her brethren, Let me find grace in your eyes, and what ye shall say unto me I will give.

Ask me never so much dowry and gift, and I will give according as ye shall say unto me: but give me the damsel to wife.

And the sons of Jacob will answer Shechem and Hamor his father with deceit, and will say, Because he defiled Dinah their sister.

And they will say to them, We shall not be able to do this word, to give our sister to a man which to him is uncircumcision; for this a reproach to us.

But in this will we consent unto you: If ye will be as we be, that every male of you be circumcised;

Then will we give our daughters unto you, and we will take your daughters to us, and we will dwell with you, and we will become one people.

But if ye will not hearken unto us, to be circumcised; then will we take our daughter, and we will be gone.

And their words will be pleasing in the eyes of Hamor, and in the eyes of Shechem, Hamor's son.

And the young man deferred not to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob's daughter: and he was more honourable than all the house of his father.

And Hamor will come, and Shechem his son, to the gate of their city, and they will speak to the men of the city, saying,

These men are peaceable with us; therefore let them dwell in the land, and trade in it. And the land behold, it is of wide extent before them. We will take their daughters as wives, and give them our daughters.

Only herein will the men consent unto us for to dwell with us, to be one people, if every male among us be circumcised, as they are circumcised.

Shall not their cattle and their substance and every beast of theirs be ours? only let us consent unto them, and they will dwell with us.

And unto Hamor and unto Shechem his son hearkened all that went out of the gate of his city; and every male was circumcised, all that went out of the gate of his city.

And it came to pass on the third day, when they were sore, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brethren, took each man his sword, and came upon the city boldly, and slew all the males.

They killed Hamor and his son Shechem with the edge of the sword, and took Dinah out of Shechem’s house [where she was staying], and left.

The sons of Jacob came upon the wounded, and they will plunder the city, because they defiled their sister.

seizing all of their flocks, herds, donkeys, and whatever else was in the city or had been left out in the field.

And all their wealth, and all their little ones, and their wives took they captive, and spoiled even all that was in the house.

And Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, Ye have troubled me, to make me odious to the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites: and, I being few in number, they will gather themselves together against me and smite me; and I shall be destroyed, I and my house.

And they will say, Shall he do to our sister as an harlot?

And 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 fleddest from the face of Esau thy brother.

Then Jacob said unto his household, and to all that were with him, Put away the strange gods that are among you, and be clean, and change your garments:

And let us arise, and go up to Bethel; 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.

And they gave unto Jacob all the strange gods which were in their hand, and all their earrings which were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak which was by Shechem.

Then they set out on their journey, and the terror of God was upon the cities that [were] all around them, so that they did not pursue after the sons of Jacob.

So Jacob came to Luz, which is in the land of Canaan, that is, Bethel, he and all the people that were with him.

And 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.

And Deborah Rebekah's nurse died, and she was buried below Beth-el under the oak: and the name of it was called Allon-bacuth.

And God will be seen to Jacob yet again in his going from Padan Aram; and he will bless him.

God said to him:

Your name is Jacob;
you will no longer be named Jacob,
but your name will be Israel.

So He named him Israel.

And God said to him, "I [am] El-Shaddai. Be fruitful and multiply. A nation and an assemblage of nations shall be from you, and kings shall go out from your loins.

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

And God will go up from him in the place in which he spake with him.

And Jacob set up a pillar in the place where he talked with him, even a pillar of stone: and he poured a drink offering thereon, and he poured oil thereon.

And Jacob called the name of the place where God spake with him, Beth-el.

And they journeyed from Beth-el; and there was still some distance to come to Ephrath: and Rachel travailed, and she had hard labor.

When she was in hard labor, the midwife said to her, "Don't be afraid, for now you will have another son."

And it will be in her soul going forth (for she will die) and she will call his name the son of my strength: and his father called him the son of the right hand.

And Rachel will die, and she will be buried in the way to Ephrath, it is the house of bread.

And Jacob will set up a pillar upon her grave: this the pillar of Rachel's grave to this day.

And Israel will remove and will extend the tent from afar off to the tower of Edar.

And 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:

The sons of Leah were Reuben, Jacob's firstborn, as well as Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun.

Leah's servant Zilpah's sons were Gad and Asher. These were Jacob's sons who were born to him while he lived in Paddan-aram.

And Jacob will go to Isaak his father to Mamra, the city of Arba (this Hebron), where Abraham sojourned there, and Isaak.

And the days of Isaak will be a hundred years and eighty years.

And Isaak will expire and will die, and will be gathered to his people, old and full of days; and Esau and Jacob his sons will bury him.

And Adah will bear to Esau, Eliphaz; and Bashemath bare Reuel;

And Esau took his wives, and his sons, and his daughters, and all the persons of his house, and his cattle, and all his beasts, and all his substance, which he had got in the land of Canaan; and went into the country from the face of his brother Jacob.

For their wealth was so great that the land was not wide enough for the two of them and all their cattle.

And Esau will dwell in mount Seir. Esau, this is Adam.

And Eliphaz, the son of Esau, had connection with a woman named Timna, who gave birth to Amalek: all these were the children of Esau's wife Adah.

And these were the sons of Aholibamah, daughter of Anah, daughter of Zibeon, Esau's wife; and she will bear to Esau, Jeush and Jaalam and Korab.

Korah, Gatam, Amalek: all these were chiefs in the land of Edom, the offspring of Eliphaz, the seed of Adah.

Now these [are] the sons of Zibeon: Aiah and Anah--he [is] Anah who found the hot springs in the desert while he pastured the donkeys of Zibeon his father.

And Bela will reign in Edom, the son of Beor; and the name of his city Dinhabah.

And Bela will die, and Jobab will reign instead of him, the son of Zerah from Bozrah.

And Jobab will die, and Husham from the land of Temani will reign in his stead.

And Husham will die, and Hadad will reign in his stead, the son of Bedad, having smitten Midian in the field Moab: and the name of his city, Avith.

And Hadad will die, and Samlah from Masrekah will reign in his stead.

And Samlah will die, and Saul will reign in his stead, from Rehoboth of the river.

And Saul will die, and Baal-Hanan will reign in his stead, the son of Achbor.

And Baal-Hanan will die, the son of Achbor, and Hadar will reign in his stead: and the name of his city, Pau; and the name of his wife, Mehetabel, the daughter of Matred, the daughter of Me-Zahab.

Duke Aholibamah, duke Elah, duke Pinon,

And Jacob will dwell in the land of his father's sojournings, in the land of Canaan.

These are the records of the generations of Jacob.Joseph, when seventeen years of age, was pasturing the flock with his brothers while he was still a youth, along with the sons of Bilhah and the sons of Zilpah, his father’s wives. And Joseph brought back a bad report about them to their father.

Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, because he was the son of his old age: and he made him a coat of many colours.
