New King James Version
Genesis 35:16-27
16Then they journeyed from Bethel. And when there was but a little distance to go to Ephrath, Rachel labored in childbirth, and she had hard labor.
17Now it came to pass, when she was in hard labor, that the midwife said to her, “Do not fear; you will have this son also.”
18And so it was, as her soul was departing (for she died), that she called his name Ben-Oni; but his father called him Benjamin.
19So Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).
20And Jacob set a pillar on her grave, which is the pillar of Rachel’s grave to this day.
21Then Israel journeyed and pitched his tent beyond the tower of Eder.
22And it happened, when Israel dwelt in that land, that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father’s concubine; and Israel heard about it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve:
23the sons of Leah were Reuben, Jacob’s firstborn, and Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun;
24the sons of Rachel were Joseph and Benjamin;
25the sons of Bilhah, Rachel’s maidservant, were Dan and Naphtali;
26and the sons of Zilpah, Leah’s maidservant, were Gad and Asher. These were the sons of Jacob who were born to him in Padan Aram.
27Then Jacob came to his father Isaac at Mamre, or Kirjath Arba (that is, Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had dwelt.
