Genesis 35:17
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
During her severe labor, the midwife said to her, “Do not be afraid, for you are having another son.”
In context
15 Jacob called the place where God had spoken with him Bethel.
16 Later, they set out from Bethel, and while they were still some distance from Ephrath, Rachel began to give birth, and her labor was difficult.
17 During her severe labor, the midwife said to her, “Do not be afraid, for you are having another son.”
18 And with her last breath—for she was dying—she named him Ben-oni. But his father called him Benjamin.
19 So Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).
