Parallel

Genesis 33:17

Swete's Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible

καὶ Ἰακὼβ ἀπαίρει εἰς Σκηνὰς· καὶ ἐποίησεν αὐτῷ ἐκεῖ οἰκίας, καὶ τοῖς κτήνεσιν αὐτοῦ ἐποίησεν σκηνάς· διὰ τοῦτο ἐκάλεσεν τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ τόπου ἐκείνου Σκηναί.
but Jacob went on to Succoth (note: Succoth means booths or shelters or tabernacles; twice in this verse.), where he built a house for himself and shelters for his livestock; that is why the place was called Succoth.
