God appeared to Jacob again after he returned from Paddan-aram, and He blessed him. 10 God said to him:

Your name is Jacob;
you will no longer be named Jacob,
but your name will be Israel.(A)

So He named him Israel. 11 God also said to him:

I am God Almighty.(B)
Be fruitful and multiply.(C)
A nation, indeed an assembly of nations,
will come from you,(D)
and kings will descend from you.[a](E)
12 I will give to you the land
that I gave to Abraham and Isaac.(F)
And I will give the land
to your future descendants.
