Genesis 35:16-20

16Then 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.

17While she was struggling to give birth, the midwife said to her, “Don’t be afraid, for this is also a son for you.”

18Now as her soul was departing (for she died), she named him Ben-Oni, but his father named him Benjamin.

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

20Jacob set up a memorial stone over her grave. (It is the memorial stone over Rachel’s grave to this day.)
