Genesis 35:3-5
New King James Version
3 Then let us arise and go up to Bethel; and I will make an altar there to God, (A)who answered me in the day of my distress (B)and has been with me in the way which I have gone.” 4 So they gave Jacob all the foreign [a]gods which were in their hands, and the (C)earrings which were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under (D)the terebinth tree which was by Shechem.
5 And they journeyed, and (E)the terror of God was upon the cities that were all around them, and they did not pursue the sons of Jacob.
