And it came to pass, when she was in hard labor, that the midwife said to her, Do not fear; you shall have this son also.

And so it was, as her soul was departing (for she died), that she called his name Ben-Oni; but his father called him Benjamin.

A woman, when she is in labor, has sorrow because her hour has come; but as soon as she gives birth to the baby, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a person has been born into the world.

In the day of my distress I sought the Lord; my hand was stretched out in the night without ceasing; my soul refused to be comforted.
