Genesis 35 (WEBP)

[1] God said to Jacob, “Arise, go up to Bethel, and live there. Make there an altar to God, who appeared to you when you fled from the face of Esau your brother.”
[2] Then Jacob said to his household, and to all who were with him, “Put away the foreign gods that are among you, purify yourselves, and change your garments.
[3] Let’s arise, and go up to Bethel. I will make there an altar to God, who answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me on the way which I went.”
[4] They gave to Jacob all the foreign gods which were in their hands, and the rings which were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak which was by Shechem.
[5] They traveled, and a terror of God was on the cities that were around them, and they didn’t pursue the sons of Jacob.
[6] So Jacob came to Luz (that is, Bethel), which is in the land of Canaan, he and all the people who were with him.
[7] He built an altar there, and called the place El Beth El; because there God was revealed to him, when he fled from the face of his brother.
[8] Deborah, Rebekah’s nurse, died, and she was buried below Bethel under the oak; and its name was called Allon Bacuth.
[9] God appeared to Jacob again, when he came from Paddan Aram, and blessed him.
[10] God said to him, “Your name is Jacob. Your name shall not be Jacob any more, but your name will be Israel.” He named him Israel.
[11] God said to him, “I am God Almighty. Be fruitful and multiply. A nation and a company of nations will be from you, and kings will come out of your body.
[12] The land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac, I will give it to you, and to your offspring after you I will give the land.”
[13] God went up from him in the place where he spoke with him.
[14] Jacob set up a pillar in the place where he spoke with him, a pillar of stone. He poured out a drink offering on it, and poured oil on it.
[15] Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him “Bethel”.
[16] They traveled from Bethel. There was still some distance to come to Ephrath, and Rachel travailed. She had hard labor.
[17] When she was in hard labor, the midwife said to her, “Don’t be afraid, for now you will have another son.”
[18] As her soul was departing (for she died), she named him Benoni, but his father named him Benjamin.
[19] Rachel died, and was buried on the way to Ephrath (also called Bethlehem).
[20] Jacob set up a pillar on her grave. The same is the Pillar of Rachel’s grave to this day.
[21] Israel traveled, and spread his tent beyond the tower of Eder.
[22] While Israel lived in that land, Reuben went and lay with Bilhah, his father’s concubine, and Israel heard of it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve.
[23] The sons of Leah: Reuben (Jacob’s firstborn), Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun.
[24] The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.
[25] The sons of Bilhah (Rachel’s servant): Dan and Naphtali.
[26] The sons of Zilpah (Leah’s servant): Gad and Asher. These are the sons of Jacob, who were born to him in Paddan Aram.
[27] Jacob came to Isaac his father, to Mamre, to Kiriath Arba (which is Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac lived as foreigners.
[28] The days of Isaac were one hundred eighty years.
[29] Isaac gave up the spirit and died, and was gathered to his people, old and full of days. Esau and Jacob, his sons, buried him.

Genesis 35:18a “Benoni” means “son of my trouble”.
Genesis 35:18b “Benjamin” means “son of my right hand”.

Genesis 35 (BYZ)

[1] ειπεν δε ο θεος προς ιακωβ αναστας αναβηθι εις τον τοπον βαιθηλ και οικει εκει και ποιησον εκει θυσιαστηριον τω θεω τω οφθεντι σοι εν τω αποδιδρασκειν σε απο προσωπου ησαυ του αδελφου σου
[2] ειπεν δε ιακωβ τω οικω αυτου και πασιν τοις μετ αυτου αρατε τους θεους τους αλλοτριους τους μεθ υμων εκ μεσου υμων και καθαρισασθε και αλλαξατε τας στολας υμων
[3] και ανασταντες αναβωμεν εις βαιθηλ και ποιησωμεν εκει θυσιαστηριον τω θεω τω επακουσαντι μοι εν ημερα θλιψεως ος ην μετ εμου και διεσωσεν με εν τη οδω η επορευθην
[4] και εδωκαν τω ιακωβ τους θεους τους αλλοτριους οι ησαν εν ταις χερσιν αυτων και τα ενωτια τα εν τοις ωσιν αυτων και κατεκρυψεν αυτα ιακωβ υπο την τερεμινθον την εν σικιμοις και απωλεσεν αυτα εως της σημερον ημερας
[5] και εξηρεν ισραηλ εκ σικιμων και εγενετο φοβος θεου επι τας πολεις τας κυκλω αυτων και ου κατεδιωξαν οπισω των υιων ισραηλ
[6] ηλθεν δε ιακωβ εις λουζα η εστιν εν γη χανααν η εστιν βαιθηλ αυτος και πας ο λαος ος ην μετ αυτου
[7] και ωκοδομησεν εκει θυσιαστηριον και εκαλεσεν το ονομα του τοπου βαιθηλ εκει γαρ επεφανη αυτω ο θεος εν τω αποδιδρασκειν αυτον απο προσωπου ησαυ του αδελφου αυτου
[8] απεθανεν δε δεββωρα η τροφος ρεβεκκας κατωτερον βαιθηλ υπο την βαλανον και εκαλεσεν ιακωβ το ονομα αυτης βαλανος πενθους
[9] ωφθη δε ο θεος ιακωβ ετι εν λουζα οτε παρεγενετο εκ μεσοποταμιας της συριας και ηυλογησεν αυτον ο θεος
[10] και ειπεν αυτω ο θεος το ονομα σου ιακωβ ου κληθησεται ετι ιακωβ αλλ ισραηλ εσται το ονομα σου
[11] ειπεν δε αυτω ο θεος εγω ο θεος σου αυξανου και πληθυνου εθνη και συναγωγαι εθνων εσονται εκ σου και βασιλεις εκ της οσφυος σου εξελευσονται
[12] και την γην ην δεδωκα αβρααμ και ισαακ σοι δεδωκα αυτην σοι εσται και τω σπερματι σου μετα σε δωσω την γην ταυτην
[13] ανεβη δε ο θεος απ αυτου εκ του τοπου ου ελαλησεν μετ αυτου
[14] και εστησεν ιακωβ στηλην εν τω τοπω ω ελαλησεν μετ αυτου στηλην λιθινην και εσπεισεν επ αυτην σπονδην και επεχεεν επ αυτην ελαιον
[15] και εκαλεσεν ιακωβ το ονομα του τοπου εν ω ελαλησεν μετ αυτου εκει ο θεος βαιθηλ
[16] απαρας δε ιακωβ εκ βαιθηλ επηξεν την σκηνην αυτου επεκεινα του πυργου γαδερ εγενετο δε ηνικα ηγγισεν χαβραθα εις γην ελθειν εφραθα ετεκεν ραχηλ και εδυστοκησεν εν τω τοκετω
[17] εγενετο δε εν τω σκληρως αυτην τικτειν ειπεν αυτη η μαια θαρσει και γαρ ουτος σοι εστιν υιος
[18] εγενετο δε εν τω αφιεναι αυτην την ψυχην απεθνησκεν γαρ εκαλεσεν το ονομα αυτου υιος οδυνης μου ο δε πατηρ εκαλεσεν αυτον βενιαμιν
[19] απεθανεν δε ραχηλ και εταφη εν τη οδω εφραθα αυτη εστιν βηθλεεμ
[20] και εστησεν ιακωβ στηλην επι του μνημειου αυτης αυτη εστιν στηλη μνημειου ραχηλ εως της σημερον ημερας …
[22] εγενετο δε ηνικα κατωκησεν ισραηλ εν τη γη εκεινη επορευθη ρουβην και εκοιμηθη μετα βαλλας της παλλακης του πατρος αυτου και ηκουσεν ισραηλ και πονηρον εφανη εναντιον αυτου ησαν δε οι υιοι ιακωβ δωδεκα
[23] υιοι λειας πρωτοτοκος ιακωβ ρουβην συμεων λευι ιουδας ισσαχαρ ζαβουλων
[24] υιοι δε ραχηλ ιωσηφ και βενιαμιν
[25] υιοι δε βαλλας παιδισκης ραχηλ δαν και νεφθαλι
[26] υιοι δε ζελφας παιδισκης λειας γαδ και ασηρ ουτοι υιοι ιακωβ οι εγενοντο αυτω εν μεσοποταμια της συριας
[27] ηλθεν δε ιακωβ προς ισαακ τον πατερα αυτου εις μαμβρη εις πολιν του πεδιου αυτη εστιν χεβρων εν γη χανααν ου παρωκησεν αβρααμ και ισαακ
[28] εγενοντο δε αι ημεραι ισαακ ας εζησεν ετη εκατον ογδοηκοντα
[29] και εκλιπων απεθανεν και προσετεθη προς το γενος αυτου πρεσβυτερος και πληρης ημερων και εθαψαν αυτον ησαυ και ιακωβ οι υιοι αυτου
