35:9 God appeared to Jacob again after he returned from Paddan Aram and blessed him. 35:10 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. 1 35:11 Then God said to him, “I am the sovereign God. 2 Be fruitful and multiply! A nation – even a company of nations – will descend from you; kings will be among your descendants! 3 35:12 The land I gave 4 to Abraham and Isaac I will give to you. To your descendants 5 I will also give this land.”
