Bereshis 35:16-26

Orthodox Jewish Bible

¹⁶ And they journeyed from Beit-El; and there was still a space of ha’aretz to get to Ephratah; and Rachel travailed, and she had hard labor.

¹⁷ And it came to pass, when she was in hard labor, that the meyaledet (midwife) said unto her, Fear not; thou shalt have this ben also.

¹⁸ And it came to pass, as her nefesh was in departing, (for she died) that she called shmo Ben-Oni (Son of Affliction); but aviv called him Binyamin.

¹⁹ And Rachel died, and was buried on the derech to Ephratah, which is Beit- Lechem.

²⁰ And Ya’akov set up a matzevah upon her kever; that is matzevet kevurat Rachel to this day.

²¹ And Yisroel journeyed, and pitched his ohel beyond Migdal-Eder.

²² And it came to pass, when Yisroel dwelt in that land, that Reuven went and lay with Bilhah pilegesh aviv and Yisroel heard it. Now the Bnei Ya’akov were Sheneym Asar (Twelve);

²³ The Bnei Leah: Reuven bechor Ya’akov, and Shimon, and Levi, and Yehudah, and Yissakhar, and Zevulun;

²⁴ The Bnei Rachel: Yosef, and Binyamin;

²⁵ And the Bnei Bilhah shifchat Rachel: Dan, and Naphtali;

²⁶ And the Bnei Zilpah shifchat Leah: Gad, and Asher; these are the Bnei Ya’akov, which were born to him in Padan Aram.
