9 When Jacob returned from Mesopotamia, God appeared to him again and blessed him.
10 God said to him, “Your name is Jacob, but from now on it will be Israel.” So God named him Israel.
11 And God said to him, “I am Almighty God. Have many children. Nations will be descended from you, and you will be the ancestor of kings.
12 I will give you the land which I gave to Abraham and to Isaac, and I will also give it to your descendants after you.”
13 Then God left him.
14 There, where God had spoken to him, Jacob set up a memorial stone and consecrated it by pouring wine and olive oil on it.
15 He named the place Bethel.
