14I will say to a young woman,‘Please lower your jar so I may drink.’ May the one you have chosen for your servant Isaac reply,‘Drink, and I’ll give your camels water too.’ In this way I will know that you have been faithful to my master.”
15Before he had finished praying, there came Rebekah with her water jug on her shoulder. She was the daughter of Bethuel son of Milcah(Milcah was the wife of Abraham’s brother Nahor).
16Now the young woman was very beautiful. She was a virgin; no man had ever been physically intimate with her. She went down to the spring, filled her jug, and came back up.
48Then I bowed down and worshiped the LORD. I praised the LORD, the God of my master Abraham, who had led me on the right path to find the granddaughter of my master’s brother for his son.
49Now, if you will show faithful love to my master, tell me. But if not, tell me as well, so that I may go on my way.”
50Then Laban and Bethuel replied,“This is the LORD’s doing. Our wishes are of no concern.
35“The LORD has richly blessed my master and he has become very wealthy. The Lord has given him sheep and cattle, silver and gold, male and female servants, and camels and donkeys.
36My master’s wife Sarah bore a son to him when she was old, and my master has given him everything he owns.
37My master made me swear an oath. He said,‘You must not acquire a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I am living,
38but you must go to the family of my father and to my relatives to find a wife for my son.’
39But I said to my master,‘What if the woman does not want to go with me?’
40He answered,‘The LORD, before whom I have walked, will send his angel with you. He will make your journey a success and you will find a wife for my son from among my relatives, from my father’s family.
41You will be free from your oath if you go to my relatives and they will not give her to you. Then you will be free from your oath.’
42When I came to the spring today, I prayed,‘O LORD, God of my master Abraham, if you have decided to make my journey successful, may events unfold as follows:
43Here I am, standing by the spring. When the young woman goes out to draw water, I’ll say,“Please give me a little water to drink from your jug.”
44Then she will reply to me,“Drink, and I’ll draw water for your camels too.” May that woman be the one whom the LORD has chosen for my master’s son.’
45“Before I finished praying in my heart, along came Rebekah with her water jug on her shoulder! She went down to the spring and drew water. So I said to her,‘Please give me a drink.’
46She quickly lowered her jug from her shoulder and said,‘Drink, and I’ll give your camels water too.’ So I drank, and she also gave the camels water.
3so that I may make you solemnly promise by the LORD, the God of heaven and the God of the earth: You must not acquire a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I am living.
4You must go instead to my country and to my relatives to find a wife for my son Isaac.”
5The servant asked him,“What if the woman is not willing to come back with me to this land? Must I then take your son back to the land from which you came?”
61Then Rebekah and her female servants mounted the camels and rode away with the man. So Abraham’s servant took Rebekah and left.
57Then they said,“We’ll call the girl and find out what she wants to do.”
58So they called Rebekah and asked her,“Do you want to go with this man?” She replied,“I want to go.”
59So they sent their sister Rebekah on her way, accompanied by her female attendant, with Abraham’s servant and his men.
52When Abraham’s servant heard their words, he bowed down to the ground before the LORD.
53Then he brought out gold, silver jewelry, and clothing and gave them to Rebekah. He also gave valuable gifts to her brother and to her mother.
54After this, he and the men who were with him ate a meal and stayed there overnight. When they got up in the morning, he said,“Let me leave now so I can return to my master.”
2Leave immediately for Paddan Aram! Go to the house of Bethuel, your mother’s father, and find yourself a wife there, among the daughters of Laban, your mother’s brother.
64Rebekah looked up and saw Isaac. She got down from her camel
65and asked Abraham’s servant,“Who is that man walking in the field toward us?”“That is my master,” the servant replied. So she took her veil and covered herself.
66The servant told Isaac everything that had happened.
28The young woman ran and told her mother’s household all about these things.
29(Now Rebekah had a brother named Laban.) Laban rushed out to meet the man at the spring.
30When he saw the bracelets on his sister’s wrists and the nose ring and heard his sister Rebekah say,“This is what the man said to me,” he went out to meet the man. There he was, standing by the camels near the spring.
31Laban said to him,“Come, you who are blessed by the LORD! Why are you standing out here when I have prepared the house and a place for the camels?”
7“The LORD, the God of heaven, who took me from my father’s house and the land of my relatives, promised me with a solemn oath,‘To your descendants I will give this land.’ He will send his angel before you so that you may find a wife for my son from there.
8But if the woman is not willing to come back with you, you will be free from this oath of mine. But you must not take my son back there!”
23“Whose daughter are you?” he asked.“Tell me, is there room in your father’s house for us to spend the night?”
20When Isaac was forty years old, he married Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Aramean from Paddan Aram and sister of Laban the Aramean.
19Why did you say,‘She is my sister,’ so that I took her to be my wife? Now, here is your wife. Take her and go!”
