9 God appeared to Jacob again after he returned from Paddan Aram and blessed him. 10 God said to him, |Your name is Jacob, but your name will no longer be called Jacob; Israel will be your name.| So God named him Israel. 11 Then God said to him, |I am the sovereign God. Be fruitful and multiply! A nation--even a company of nations--will descend from you; kings will be among your descendants! 12 The land I gave to Abraham and Isaac I will give to you. To your descendants I will also give this land.| 13 Then God went up from the place where he spoke with him. Genesis 35:9-13, New English Translation. Copyright © 1996-2017 by Biblical Studies Press.
