Matthew(i)
1 And God sayd vnto Iacob, aryse & get the vp to Bethel, and dwell there. And make ther an aultare vnto God that appered vnto the when thou fleddest from Esau thy brother.
2 Then sayd Iacob vnto hys houshold & to all that were with him, put away the straunge Goddes that are amonge you, and make your selues cleane, and chaunge your garmentes,
3 and let vs arise and go vp to Bethel, that I may make an aulter there vnto God, whyche hearde me in the day of my tribulation and was wyth me in the waye whyche I wente.
4 And they gaue vnto Iacob all the straunge Gods whych were vnder theyr handes, & al theyr earynges which were in theyr eares, & Iacob hid them vnder an oke at Sichem.
5 And they departed. And the feare of God fel vpon the cities that were rounde aboute them, that they durste not folowe after the sonnes of Iacob.
6 So came Iacob to Lus in the land of Canaan, otherwise called Bethell, wyth all the people that was wyth hym.
7 And he builded there an aulter, and called the place Bethel: bicause that god appeared vnto him there, when he fled from hys brother.
8 Then dyed Debora Rebeccas norsse, & was buryed beneth Bethell vnder an ooke. And the name of it was called the oke of lamentation.
9 And God appeared vnto Iacob againe after he came oute of Messopotamia & blessed him,
10 & saied vnto him: thy name is Iacob. Notwithstandinge thou shalt be no more called Iacob, but Israell shall be thy name. And so was hys name called Israell.
11 And God sayd vnto hym: I am God almighty, growe & multiplye: for people and a multitude of people shall sprynge of the, yea & kinges shal come out of thy loynes.
12 And the Land whych I gaue Abraham & Isaac wyl I giue vnto the, & vnto thy sede after the wyl I gyue it also.
13 And God departed from him in the place where he talked wyth hym.
