11. God said to him, "I am the Mighty God. Have children and increase your numbers. A nation and a community of nations will come from you. Kings will come from your body.
12. I am giving you the land I gave to Abraham and Isaac. I will also give it to your children after you."
13. Then God left him at the place where he had talked with him.
14. Jacob set up a stone pillar at the place where God had talked with him. He poured out a drink offering on it. He also poured oil on it.
15. Jacob named the place Bethel. That's where God had talked with him.
16. They moved on from Bethel. Ephrath wasn't very far away when Rachel began to have a baby. She was having a very hard time of it.
17. The woman who helped her saw that she was having problems. So she said to her, "Don't be afraid. You have another son."
18. But Rachel was dying. As she took her last breath, she named her son Ben-Oni. But his father named him Benjamin.
19. So Rachel died. Her body was buried beside the road to Ephrath. Ephrath was also called Bethlehem.
20. Jacob set up a pillar over her tomb. The pillar marks the place of Rachel's tomb to this very day.
