3. Let us now go up to Bethel so that I might build an altar there to the God who answered me in the day of my distress and who has been with me wherever I have gone.”
4. They gave Jacob all the foreign gods in their possession and also the rings they had in their ears and Jacob buried them under the oak that is near Shechem.
5. Then, as they set out, a great terror fell upon the surrounding towns, so that no one pursued the sons of Jacob.
6. Thus Jacob and all the people who were with him arrived in Luz (now Bethel) in the land of Canaan.
