The Birth of Benjamin and the Death of Rachel
16 Then they journeyed from Bethel; and when they were still some distance from Ephrath, Rachel was in childbirth, and she had a difficult labour. 17 When she was in her difficult labour, the midwife said to her, ‘Do not be afraid; for now you will have another son.’ 18 As her soul was departing (for she died), she named him Ben-oni;[a] but his father called him Benjamin.[b]
