9 God appeared to Jacob again and blessed him after his return from Paddan-aram.10 God told him, “Jacob will not be your name any longer. Instead of Jacob your name will be Israel.” So God called him Israel.

11 Then God said, “I am God Almighty! Reproduce, increase, and you will become a nation—in fact a group of nations—and kings will be among your descendants.12 I will give to you and to your descendants the land I also gave to Abraham and Isaac.”13 Then God left the place where he had been speaking to Jacob.14 Afterwards Jacob set up a stone pillar where God had spoken with him. He poured out a drink offering on it, and also olive oil.15 Jacob called the place Bethel, because he had spoken with God there.
