Genesis 35:14-21 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

14. And Jacob set up a pillar at the place where God had spoken with him, a pillar of stone. And he poured out a drink offering upon it, and poured oil on it.

15. And Jacob called the name of the place where God had spoken with him Bethel.

16. Then they journeyed from Bethel. And when they were still some distance from Ephrath, Rachel went into labor. And she had hard labor.

17. And when her labor was the most difficult the midwife said to her, “Do not be afraid for you have another son.”

18. And it happened that when her life was departing (for she was dying), she called his name Ben-Oni. But his father called him Benjamin.

19. And Rachel died and she was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).

20. And Jacob erected a pillar at her burial site. That is the pillar of the burial site of Rachel unto this day.

21. And Israel journeyed on and pitched his tent beyond the tower of Eder.
