Genesis 35:16-18
1599 Geneva Bible
16 ¶ Then they departed from Bethel, and when there was [a]about half a day’s journey of ground to come to Ephrath, Rachel travailed, and in travailing she was in peril.
17 And when she was in the pains of her labor, the midwife said unto her, Fear not, for thou shalt have this son also.
18 Then as she was about to yield up the ghost (for she died) she called his name Ben-Oni, but his father called him Benjamin.
