Genesis 35:8-20

8And DeborahH1683 Rebekah’s nurse diedH4191, and she was buriedH6912 below Beth-el under the oakH437: and the nameH8034 of it was calledH7121 Allon-bacuth.

9And GodH430 appearedH7200 unto JacobH3290 againH5750, when he cameH935 from Paddan-aram, and blessedH1288 him. 10And GodH430 saidH559 unto him, Thy nameH8034 is JacobH3290: thy nameH8034 shall not beH1961 calledH7121 any more JacobH3290, but IsraelH3478 shall beH1961 thy nameH8034: and he calledH7121 his nameH8034 IsraelH3478. 11And GodH430 saidH559 unto him, I am GodH430 AlmightyH7706: beH1961 fruitfulH6509 and multiplyH7235; a nationH1471 and a companyH6951 of nationsH1471 shall beH1961 of thee, and kingsH4428 shall come out of thy loinsH2504; 12and the landH776 which I gaveH5414 unto AbrahamH85 and IsaacH3327, to thee I will giveH5414 it, and to thy seedH2233 after thee will I giveH5414 the landH776. 13And GodH430 wentH5927 up from him in the placeH4725 whereH834 he spake with him. 14And JacobH3290 setH5324 up a pillarH4676 in the placeH4725 whereH834 he spake with him, a pillarH4676 of stoneH68: and he pouredH3332 out a drink-offering thereon, and pouredH3332 oilH8081 thereon. 15And JacobH3290 calledH7121 the nameH8034 of the placeH4725 whereH834 GodH430 spake with him, Beth-el.

16And they journeyed from Beth-el; and there wasH1961 stillH5750 some distance to comeH935 to EphrathH672: and RachelH7354 travailed, and she had hardH7185 labor. 17And it came to pass, when she wasH1961 in hardH7185 labor, that the midwife saidH559 unto her, FearH3372 not; for now thou shalt have another sonH1121. 18And it came to pass, as her soulH5315 was departing (for she diedH4191), that she calledH7121 his nameH8034 Ben-oni: but his fatherH1 calledH7121 him BenjaminH1144. 19And RachelH7354 diedH4191, and was buriedH6912 in the wayH1870 to EphrathH672 (the same is Beth-lehem). 20And JacobH3290 setH5324 up a pillarH4676 upon her graveH6900: the same is the PillarH4676 of Rachel’s graveH6900 unto this dayH3117.
