16. And they journeyed from Bethel and had but a little way to go to Ephrath [Bethlehem] when Rachel suffered the pangs of childbirth and had hard labor.
17. When she was in hard labor, the midwife said to her, Do not be afraid; you shall have this son also.
18. And as her soul was departing, for she died, she called his name Ben-oni [son of my sorrow]; but his father called him Benjamin [son of the right hand].
19. So Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath, that is, Bethlehem.
20. And Jacob set a pillar (monument) on her grave; that is the pillar of Rachel's grave to this day.
21. Then Israel journeyed on and spread his tent on the other side of the tower of Edar.
