Berean Standard Bible
“Then God said to Jacob, “Arise, go up to Bethel, and settle there. Build an altar there to the God who appeared to you when you fled from your brother Esau.””
After the painful events at Shechem, God tells Jacob to go up to Bethel, settle there and build an altar. Bethel was where God had appeared to him as he fled from Esau, so the command calls him back to his original encounter with God.
