[The Pentateuch]

¶ The .xxxv. Chapter

And God said unto Jacob / arise and get the up to Bethel / & dwell there. And make there an altar unto God that appeared unto thee / when thou fleddest from Esau thy brother. Than said Jacob unto hi• ⟨p. l⟩household & to all that were with him / put away the strange gods that are among you & make your selves clean / & change your garments / & let us arise & goo up to Bethel / that I may make an altar there / unto God which heard me in the day of my tribulation & was with me in the way which I went.

ANd God sayd vnto Iacob / aryse ād get the vp to Bethell / & dwell there. And make there an aulter vnto God that apeared vnto the / when thou fleddest from Esau thy brother. Than sayd Iacob vnto hi• ⟨p. l⟩housholde & to all yt were with him / put away the straūge goddes that are amonge you & make youre selves cleane / & chaunge youre garmē tes / & let vs aryse & goo vp to Bethell / yt I maye make an aulter there / vnto God which herde me in the daye of my tribulatiō & was wyth me in the waye which I went.

And they gave unto Jacob all the strange gods which were under their hands / and all their carynges which were in their ears / and Jacob hid them under an oak at Shechem. And they departed▪ And the fear of God fell upon the cities that were round about them / that they durst not follow after the sons of Jacob. •o came Jacob to Lus in the land of Canaan / otherwise called Bethel / with all the people that was with him. And he builded there an altar / and called the place Elbethell: because that God appeared unto him there / when he fled from his brother.
