11. God also said to him: “I am El Shaddai. Be fruitful and multiply. A nation and an assembly of nations will come from you. From your loins will come forth kings.
12. The land that I gave to Abraham and to Isaac— I give it to you, and to your seed after you I will give the land.”
13. Then God went up from him at the place where He had spoken with him.
14. Jacob set up a memorial stone in the place where He had spoken with him—a stone pillar—and he poured a drink offering on it and poured oil on it.
15. Jacob named the place where God spoke with him Beth-El.
16. Then they traveled from Beth-El, and while they were still a distance from entering Ephrath, Rachel began to give birth, but her labor was difficult.
17. While she was struggling to give birth, the midwife said to her, “Don’t be afraid, for this is also a son for you.”
