WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Dios le dijo a Jacob: «Regresa a Betel y quédate allí. Al llegar construirás un altar para adorar al Dios que se te apareció cuando huías de tu hermano Esaú».
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 Jacob entonces ordenó a su familia y a toda la gente que estaba con él que destruyeran los ídolos que habían traído consigo, que se purificaran ceremonialmente y que se pusieran ropa limpia.
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 Además les dijo: «Nos vamos a Betel. Allí voy a construir un altar al Dios que respondió a mis oraciones en el día en que estaba angustiado, y me acompañó en todo el viaje».
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 Entonces todos le entregaron sus ídolos y los aretes que llevaban en las orejas. Jacob agarró todo esto y lo enterró bajo la encina que estaba cerca de Siquén.
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 Luego emprendieron la marcha. Pasaron por varias ciudades, pero nadie se atrevió a hacerles daño, pues tenían miedo de Dios.
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 Finalmente llegaron a Luz (que también se llama Betel), en Canaán.
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 Jacob erigió allí un altar y llamó a ese lugar El Betel (Dios de Betel), porque fue en Betel donde Dios se le apareció mientras huía de Esaú.
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 Poco después de esto murió Débora, la anciana que había criado a Rebeca. La sepultaron bajo una encina en el valle que quedaba junto a Betel. Por esto, a ese lugar Jacob le puso el nombre de Elón Bacut (encina del llanto).
8 Deborah, Rebekah’s nurse, died, and she was buried below Bethel under the oak; and its name was called Allon Bacuth.
9 Cuando Jacob llegó a Betel desde Padán Aram, Dios se le apareció y lo bendijo nuevamente.
9 God appeared to Jacob again, when he came from Paddan Aram, and blessed him.
10 Le dijo Dios: «Hasta hoy te llamaste Jacob (usurpador). Pero a partir de este momento ya no te llamarás Jacob, sino Israel (el que prevalece con Dios)». Así que Dios le cambió el nombre.
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 Después de esto Dios le dijo: «Yo soy el Dios Todopoderoso. Vas a tener muchos hijos, y tus descendientes serán muy numerosos. Haré de ti una gran nación, y muchos pueblos saldrán de ti. Además, entre descendientes habrá muchos reyes.
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 A ti te entregaré la tierra que les di a Abraham y a Isaac. Y después de ti se la daré a tu descendencia».
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 Luego, Dios se fue de este lugar donde había hablado con Jacob.
13 God went up from him in the place where he spoke with him.
14 Entonces Jacob levantó una piedra por monumento en el lugar en que Dios le había hablado. Sobre ella derramó vino y aceite para consagrarla.
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 llamó a aquel lugar Betel, porque Dios le había hablado allí.
15 Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him “Bethel”.
16 Después, Jacob y todos los que estaban con él salieron de Betel y viajaron hacia Efrata. Cuando todavía estaban bastante lejos de Efrata, Raquel dio a luz, pero con mucha dificultad.
16 They traveled from Bethel. There was still some distance to come to Ephrath, and Rachel travailed. She had hard labor.
17 Después de un parto muy difícil, la partera finalmente exclamó: ―¡No tengas miedo, pues has tenido otro hijo varón!
17 When she was in hard labor, the midwife said to her, “Don’t be afraid, for now you will have another son.”
18 Pero Raquel murió luego de dar a luz a su hijo. Sin embargo, cuando estaba agonizando alcanzó a decir que su hijo se llamaría Benoní, es decir, «hijo de mi tristeza». Pero Jacob lo llamó Benjamín, que quiere decir «Hijo de mi mano derecha».
18 As her soul was departing (for she died), she named him Benoni, but his father named him Benjamin.
19 Muerta Raquel, fue sepultada junto al camino a Efrata (que también se llama Belén).
19 Rachel died, and was buried on the way to Ephrath (also called Bethlehem).
20 Jacob levantó una piedra en la tumba como señal, y allí está hasta hoy.
20 Jacob set up a pillar on her grave. The same is the Pillar of Rachel’s grave to this day.
21 Entonces Israel viajó y acampó más allá de Migdal Edar (torre de Edar).
21 Israel traveled, and spread his tent beyond the tower of Eder.
22 Fue allí donde Rubén tuvo relaciones sexuales con Bilhá, la concubina de Jacob, quien se enteró de lo sucedido. Estos son los nombres de los doce hijos de Jacob:
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 Los hijos de Lea: Rubén, que es el hijo mayor de Jacob, Simeón, Leví, Judá, Isacar y Zabulón.
23 The sons of Leah: Reuben (Jacob’s firstborn), Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun.
24 Los hijos de Raquel: José y Benjamín.
24 The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.
25 Los hijos de Bilhá, la esclava de Raquel: Dan y Neftalí.
25 The sons of Bilhah (Rachel’s servant): Dan and Naphtali.
26 Los hijos de Zilpá, la esclava de Lea: Gad y Aser. Todos estos nacieron en Padán Aram.
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 Finalmente Jacob fue hasta Mamré, cerca de Quiriat Arbá, a visitar a su padre Isaac. Quiriat Arbá es la misma Hebrón. Allí habían vivido Abraham e Isaac.
27 Jacob came to Isaac his father, to Mamre, to Kiriath Arba (which is Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac lived as foreigners.
28 Isaac murió poco después a la avanzada edad de ciento ochenta años, y sus hijos Esaú y Jacob lo sepultaron.
28 The days of Isaac were one hundred eighty years.
29 Not in this translation

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… connection with which the mystery of the passion of the defect occurred, from which passion they maintain that all things visible were framed, they assert that is to be found strikingly and manifestly everywhere [in Scripture]. For they declare that the twelve sons of Jacob, from whom also sprung twelve tribes,-- the breastplate of the high priest, which bore twelve …
So then that Angel, who is understood to be the Lord Jesus, saith to Jacob, "Thou shalt not be any more called Jacob, but Israel shall thy name be," which is by interpretation, "Seeing God." After this He touched the sinew of his thigh, the broad part, that is, of the thigh, and it dried up; and Jacob became lame.

Rachel was the mother of Benjamin, and on his death, they buried her in the horse-course that was near this place. The tomb then being near, and the portion pertaining unto Benjamin her infant (for Rama was of the tribe of Benjamin), from the head of the tribe first, and next from the place of her sepulture, He naturally denominates …
