| 7. Formal Translation And I, when I was coming from Paddan, Rachel died upon me in the land of Canaan on the way, while there was still a stretch of land to go to Ephrath. And I buried her there on the way to Ephrath (that is Bethlehem). |
| 7. Dynamic Translation As I was traveling from Paddan, Rachel died in the land of Canaan while we were still on the way, a little distance from Ephrath. So I buried her there on the road to Ephrath, which is Bethlehem. |
