Genesis 24:1-67

And Abraham
<085>

was old
<02204> (8804)_,

[and] well stricken
<0935> (8804)

in age
<03117>_:

and the LORD
<03068>

had blessed
<01288> (8765)

Abraham
<085>

in all things. {well...: Heb. gone into days}

And Abraham
<085>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto his eldest
<02205>

servant
<05650>

of his house
<01004>_,

that ruled over
<04910> (8802)

all that he had, Put
<07760> (8798)_,

I pray thee, thy hand
<03027>

under my thigh
<03409>_:

And I will make thee swear
<07650> (8686)

by the LORD
<03068>_,

the God
<0430>

of heaven
<08064>_,

and the God
<0430>

of the earth
<0776>_,

that thou shalt not take
<03947> (8799)

a wife
<0802>

unto my son
<01121>

of the daughters
<01323>

of the Canaanites
<03669>_,

among
<07130>

whom I dwell
<03427> (8802)_:

But thou shalt go
<03212> (8799)

unto my country
<0776>_,

and to my kindred
<04138>_,

and take
<03947> (8804)

a wife
<0802>

unto my son
<01121>

Isaac
<03327>_.

And the servant
<05650>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Peradventure the woman
<0802>

will not be willing
<014> (8799)

to follow
<03212> (8800)

me
<0310>

unto this land
<0776>_:

must I needs bring
<07725> (8687)

thy son
<01121>

again
<07725> (8686)

unto the land
<0776>

from whence thou camest
<03318> (8804)_?

And Abraham
<085>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Beware
<08104> (8734)

thou that thou bring
<07725> (0)

not
<06435>

my son
<01121>

thither again
<07725> (8686)_.

The LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of heaven
<08064>_,

which took me
<03947> (8804)

from my father's
<01>

house
<01004>_,

and from the land
<0776>

of my kindred
<04138>_,

and which spake
<01696> (8765)

unto me, and that sware
<07650> (8738)

unto me, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Unto thy seed
<02233>

will I give
<05414> (8799)

this land
<0776>_;

he shall send
<07971> (8799)

his angel
<04397>

before thee
<06440>_,

and thou shalt take
<03947> (8804)

a wife
<0802>

unto my son
<01121>

from thence.

And if the woman
<0802>

will not be willing
<014> (8799)

to follow
<03212> (8800)

thee
<0310>_,

then thou shalt be clear
<05352> (8738)

from this my oath
<07621>_:

only bring
<07725> (0)

not my son
<01121>

thither again
<07725> (8686)_.

And the servant
<05650>

put
<07760> (8799)

his hand
<03027>

under the thigh
<03409>

of Abraham
<085>

his master
<0113>_,

and sware
<07650> (8735)

to him concerning
<05921>

that
<02088>

matter
<01697>_.

And the servant
<05650>

took
<03947> (8799)

ten
<06235>

camels
<01581>

of the camels
<01581>

of his master
<0113>_,

and departed
<03212> (8799)_;

for all the goods
<02898>

of his master
<0113>

[were] in his hand
<03027>_:

and he arose
<06965> (8799)_,

and went
<03212> (8799)

to Mesopotamia
<0763>_,

unto the city
<05892>

of Nahor
<05152>_.

{for: or, and}

And he made
<01288> (0)

his camels
<01581>

to kneel down
<01288> (8686)

without
<02351>

the city
<05892>

by
<0413>

a well
<0875>

of water
<04325>

at the time
<06256>

of the evening
<06153>_,

[even] the time
<06256>

that women go out
<03318> (8800)

to draw
<07579> (8802)

[water]. {that...: Heb. that women who draw water go forth}

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

O LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of my master
<0113>

Abraham
<085>_,

I pray thee, send me
<06440>

good speed
<07136> (8685)

this day
<03117>_,

and shew
<06213> (8798)

kindness
<02617>

unto
<05973>

my master
<0113>

Abraham
<085>_.

Behold, I stand
<05324> (8737)

[here] by the well
<05869>

of water
<04325>_;

and the daughters
<01323>

of the men
<0582>

of the city
<05892>

come out
<03318> (8802)

to draw
<07579> (8800)

water
<04325>_:

And let it come to pass, that the damsel
<05291>

to whom I shall say
<0559> (8799)_,

Let down
<05186> (8685)

thy pitcher
<03537>_,

I pray thee, that I may drink
<08354> (8799)_;

and she shall say
<0559> (8804)_,

Drink
<08354> (8798)_,

and I will give
<08248> (0)

thy camels
<01581>

drink
<08248> (8686)

also: [let the same be] she [that] thou hast appointed
<03198> (8689)

for thy servant
<05650>

Isaac
<03327>_;

and thereby shall I know
<03045> (8799)

that thou hast shewed
<06213> (8804)

kindness
<02617>

unto my master
<0113>_.

And it came to pass, before he had done
<03615> (8765)

speaking
<01696> (8763)_,

that, behold, Rebekah
<07259>

came out
<03318> (8802)_,

who
<0834>

was born
<03205> (8795)

to Bethuel
<01328>_,

son
<01121>

of Milcah
<04435>_,

the wife
<0802>

of Nahor
<05152>_,

Abraham's
<085>

brother
<0251>_,

with her pitcher
<03537>

upon her shoulder
<07926>_.

And the damsel
<05291>

[was] very
<03966>

fair
<02896>

to look upon
<04758>_,

a virgin
<01330>_,

neither had any man
<0376>

known
<03045> (8804)

her: and she went down
<03381> (8799)

to the well
<05869>_,

and filled
<04390> (8762)

her pitcher
<03537>_,

and came up
<05927> (8799)_.

{very...: Heb. good of countenance}

And the servant
<05650>

ran
<07323> (8799)

to meet her
<07125> (8800)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Let me, I pray thee, drink
<01572> (8685)

a little
<04592>

water
<04325>

of thy pitcher
<03537>_.

And she said
<0559> (8799)_,

Drink
<08354> (8798)_,

my lord
<0113>_:

and she hasted
<04116> (8762)_,

and let down
<03381> (8686)

her pitcher
<03537>

upon her hand
<03027>_,

and gave him drink
<08248> (8686)_.

And when she had done
<03615> (8762)

giving him drink
<08248> (8687)_,

she said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will draw
<07579> (8799)

[water] for thy camels
<01581>

also, until they have done
<03615> (8765)

drinking
<08354> (8800)_.

And she hasted
<04116> (8762)_,

and emptied
<06168> (8762)

her pitcher
<03537>

into the trough
<08268>_,

and ran
<07323> (8799)

again unto the well
<0875>

to draw
<07579> (8800)

[water], and drew
<07579> (8799)

for all his camels
<01581>_.

And the man
<0376>

wondering
<07583> (8693)

at her held his peace
<02790> (8688)_,

to wit
<03045> (8800)

whether the LORD
<03068>

had made
<06743> (0)

his journey
<01870>

prosperous
<06743> (8689)

or
<0518>

not.

And it came to pass, as the camels
<01581>

had done
<03615> (8765)

drinking
<08354> (8800)_,

that the man
<0376>

took
<03947> (8799)

a golden
<02091>

earring
<05141>

of half a shekel
<01235>

weight
<04948>_,

and two
<08147>

bracelets
<06781>

for her hands
<03027>

of ten
<06235>

[shekels] weight
<04948>

of gold
<02091>_;

{earring: or, jewel for the forehead}

And said
<0559> (8799)_,

Whose
<04310>

daughter
<01323>

[art] thou
<0859>_?

tell
<05046> (8685)

me, I pray thee: is there
<03426>

room
<04725>

[in] thy father's
<01>

house
<01004>

for us to lodge in
<03885> (8800)_?

And she said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, I [am] the daughter
<01323>

of Bethuel
<01328>

the son
<01121>

of Milcah
<04435>_,

which she bare
<03205> (8804)

unto Nahor
<05152>_.

She said
<0559> (8799)

moreover unto him, We have both
<01571>

straw
<08401>

and provender
<04554>

enough
<07227>_,

and
<01571>

room
<04725>

to lodge in
<03885> (8800)_.

And the man
<0376>

bowed down his head
<06915> (8799)_,

and worshipped
<07812> (8691)

the LORD
<03068>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Blessed
<01288> (8803)

[be] the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of my master
<0113>

Abraham
<085>_,

who hath not left destitute
<05800> (8804) <05973>

my master
<0113>

of his mercy
<02617>

and his truth
<0571>_:

I [being] in the way
<01870>_,

the LORD
<03068>

led me
<05148> (8804)

to the house
<01004>

of my master's
<0113>

brethren
<0251>_.

And the damsel
<05291>

ran
<07323> (8799)_,

and told
<05046> (8686)

[them of] her mother's
<0517>

house
<01004>

these things
<01697>_.

And Rebekah
<07259>

had a brother
<0251>_,

and his name
<08034>

[was] Laban
<03837>_:

and Laban
<03837>

ran
<07323> (8799)

out
<02351>

unto the man
<0376>_,

unto the well
<05869>_.

And it came to pass, when he saw
<07200> (8800)

the earring
<05141>

and bracelets
<06781>

upon his sister's
<0269>

hands
<03027>_,

and when he heard
<08085> (8800)

the words
<01697>

of Rebekah
<07259>

his sister
<0269>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thus
<03541>

spake
<01696> (8765)

the man
<0376>

unto me; that he came
<0935> (8799)

unto the man
<0376>_;

and, behold, he stood
<05975> (8802)

by
<05921>

the camels
<01581>

at the well
<05869>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Come in
<0935> (8798)_,

thou blessed
<01288> (8803)

of the LORD
<03068>_;

wherefore standest
<05975> (8799)

thou without
<02351>_?

for I have prepared
<06437> (8765)

the house
<01004>_,

and room
<04725>

for the camels
<01581>_.

And the man
<0376>

came
<0935> (8799)

into the house
<01004>_:

and he ungirded
<06605> (8762)

his camels
<01581>_,

and gave
<05414> (8799)

straw
<08401>

and provender
<04554>

for the camels
<01581>_,

and water
<04325>

to wash
<07364> (8800)

his feet
<07272>_,

and the men's
<0582>

feet
<07272>

that [were] with him.

And there was set
<07760> (8714) (8675) <03455> (8799)

[meat] before him
<06440>

to eat
<0398> (8800)_:

but he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will not eat
<0398> (8799)_,

until I have told
<01696> (8765)

mine errand
<01697>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Speak on
<01696> (8761)_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I [am] Abraham's
<085>

servant
<05650>_.

And the LORD
<03068>

hath blessed
<01288> (8765)

my master
<0113>

greatly
<03966>_;

and he is become great
<01431> (8799)_:

and he hath given
<05414> (8799)

him flocks
<06629>_,

and herds
<01241>_,

and silver
<03701>_,

and gold
<02091>_,

and menservants
<05650>_,

and maidservants
<08198>_,

and camels
<01581>_,

and asses
<02543>_.

And Sarah
<08283>

my master's
<0113>

wife
<0802>

bare
<03205> (8799)

a son
<01121>

to my master
<0113>

when
<0310>

she was old
<02209>_:

and unto him hath he given
<05414> (8799)

all that he hath.

And my master
<0113>

made me swear
<07650> (8686)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thou shalt not take
<03947> (8799)

a wife
<0802>

to my son
<01121>

of the daughters
<01323>

of the Canaanites
<03669>_,

in whose land
<0776>

I dwell
<03427> (8802)_:

But
<0518>

thou shalt go
<03212> (8799)

unto my father's
<01>

house
<01004>_,

and to my kindred
<04940>_,

and take
<03947> (8804)

a wife
<0802>

unto my son
<01121>_.

And I said
<0559> (8799)

unto my master
<0113>_,

Peradventure the woman
<0802>

will not follow
<03212> (8799) <0310>

me.

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto me, The LORD
<03068>_,

before
<06440>

whom I walk
<01980> (8694)_,

will send
<07971> (8799)

his angel
<04397>

with thee, and prosper
<06743> (8689)

thy way
<01870>_;

and thou shalt take
<03947> (8804)

a wife
<0802>

for my son
<01121>

of my kindred
<04940>_,

and of my father's
<01>

house
<01004>_:

Then shalt thou be clear
<05352> (8735)

from [this] my oath
<0423>_,

when thou comest
<0935> (8799)

to my kindred
<04940>_;

and if they give
<05414> (8799)

not thee [one], thou shalt be clear
<05355>

from my oath
<0423>_.

And I came
<0935> (8799)

this day
<03117>

unto the well
<05869>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

O LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of my master
<0113>

Abraham
<085>_,

if now thou do
<03426>

prosper
<06743> (8688)

my way
<01870>

which I go
<01980> (8802)_:

Behold, I stand
<05324> (8737)

by the well
<05869>

of water
<04325>_;

and it shall come to pass, that when the virgin
<05959>

cometh forth
<03318> (8802)

to draw
<07579> (8800)

[water], and I say
<0559> (8804)

to her, Give me
<08248> (0)_,

I pray thee, a little
<04592>

water
<04325>

of thy pitcher
<03537>

to drink
<08248> (8685)_;

And she say
<0559> (8804)

to me, Both drink
<08354> (8798)

thou, and I will also draw
<07579> (8799)

for thy camels
<01581>_:

[let] the same [be] the woman
<0802>

whom the LORD
<03068>

hath appointed out
<03198> (8689)

for my master's
<0113>

son
<01121>_.

And before I had done
<03615> (8762)

speaking
<01696> (8763)

in mine heart
<03820>_,

behold, Rebekah
<07259>

came forth
<03318> (8802)

with her pitcher
<03537>

on her shoulder
<07926>_;

and she went down
<03381> (8799)

unto the well
<05869>_,

and drew
<07579> (8799)

[water]: and I said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, Let me drink
<08248> (8685)_,

I pray thee.

And she made haste
<04116> (8762)_,

and let down
<03381> (8686)

her pitcher
<03537>

from her [shoulder], and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Drink
<08354> (8798)_,

and I will give
<08248> (0)

thy camels
<01581>

drink
<08248> (8686)

also: so I drank
<08354> (8799)_,

and she made
<08248> (0)

the camels
<01581>

drink
<08248> (8689)

also.

And I asked
<07592> (8799)

her, and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Whose daughter
<01323>

[art] thou? And she said
<0559> (8799)_,

The daughter
<01323>

of Bethuel
<01328>_,

Nahor's
<05152>

son
<01121>_,

whom Milcah
<04435>

bare
<03205> (8804)

unto him: and I put
<07760> (8799)

the earring
<05141>

upon her face
<0639>_,

and the bracelets
<06781>

upon her hands
<03027>_.

And I bowed down my head
<06915> (8799)_,

and worshipped
<07812> (8691)

the LORD
<03068>_,

and blessed
<01288> (8762)

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of my master
<0113>

Abraham
<085>_,

which had led me
<05148> (8689)

in the right
<0571>

way
<01870>

to take
<03947> (8800)

my master's
<0113>

brother's
<0251>

daughter
<01323>

unto his son
<01121>_.

And now if ye will
<03426>

deal
<06213> (8802)

kindly
<02617>

and truly
<0571>

with my master
<0113>_,

tell
<05046> (8685)

me: and if not, tell
<05046> (8685)

me; that I may turn
<06437> (8799)

to the right hand
<03225>_,

or
<0176>

to the left
<08040>_.

Then Laban
<03837>

and Bethuel
<01328>

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

The thing
<01697>

proceedeth
<03318> (8804)

from the LORD
<03068>_:

we cannot
<03201> (8799)

speak
<01696> (8763)

unto thee bad
<07451>

or
<0176>

good
<02896>_.

Behold, Rebekah
<07259>

[is] before thee
<06440>_,

take
<03947> (8798)

[her], and go
<03212> (8798)_,

and let her be thy master's
<0113>

son's
<01121>

wife
<0802>_,

as the LORD
<03068>

hath spoken
<01696> (8765)_.

And it came to pass, that, when Abraham's
<085>

servant
<05650>

heard
<08085> (8804)

their words
<01697>_,

he worshipped
<07812> (8691)

the LORD
<03068>_,

[bowing himself] to the earth
<0776>_.

And the servant
<05650>

brought forth
<03318> (8686)

jewels
<03627>

of silver
<03701>_,

and jewels
<03627>

of gold
<02091>_,

and raiment
<0899>_,

and gave
<05414> (8799)

[them] to Rebekah
<07259>_:

he gave
<05414> (8804)

also to her brother
<0251>

and to her mother
<0517>

precious things
<04030>_.

{jewels: Heb. vessels}

And they did eat
<0398> (8799)

and drink
<08354> (8799)_,

he and the men
<0582>

that [were] with him, and tarried all night
<03885> (8799)_;

and they rose up
<06965> (8799)

in the morning
<01242>_,

and he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Send me away
<07971> (8761)

unto my master
<0113>_.

And her brother
<0251>

and her mother
<0517>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Let the damsel
<05291>

abide
<03427> (8799)

with us [a few] days
<03117>_,

at the least
<0176>

ten
<06218>_;

after
<0310>

that she shall go
<03212> (8799)_.

{a few...: or, a full year, or ten months}

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Hinder me
<0309> (8762)

not, seeing the LORD
<03068>

hath prospered
<06743> (8689)

my way
<01870>_;

send me away
<07971> (8761)

that I may go
<03212> (8799)

to my master
<0113>_.

And they said
<0559> (8799)_,

We will call
<07121> (8799)

the damsel
<05291>_,

and enquire
<07592> (8799)

at her mouth
<06310>_.

And they called
<07121> (8799)

Rebekah
<07259>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, Wilt thou go
<03212> (8799)

with this man
<0376>_?

And she said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will go
<03212> (8799)_.

And they sent away
<07971> (8762)

Rebekah
<07259>

their sister
<0269>_,

and her nurse
<03243> (8688)_,

and Abraham's
<085>

servant
<05650>_,

and his men
<0582>_.

And they blessed
<01288> (8762)

Rebekah
<07259>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, Thou
<0859>

[art] our sister
<0269>_,

be thou
<01961> (8798)

[the mother] of thousands
<0505>

of millions
<07233>_,

and let thy seed
<02233>

possess
<03423> (8799)

the gate
<08179>

of those which hate
<08130> (8802)

them.

And Rebekah
<07259>

arose
<06965> (8799)_,

and her damsels
<05291>_,

and they rode
<07392> (8799)

upon the camels
<01581>_,

and followed
<03212> (8799) <0310>

the man
<0376>_:

and the servant
<05650>

took
<03947> (8799)

Rebekah
<07259>_,

and went his way
<03212> (8799)_.

And Isaac
<03327>

came
<0935> (8804)

from the way
<0935> (8800)

of the well Lahairoi
<0883>_;

for he dwelt
<03427> (8802)

in the south
<05045>

country
<0776>_.

And Isaac
<03327>

went out
<03318> (8799)

to meditate
<07742> (8800)

in the field
<07704>

at
<06437> (8800)

the eventide
<06153>_:

and he lifted up
<05375> (8799)

his eyes
<05869>_,

and saw
<07200> (8799)_,

and, behold, the camels
<01581>

[were] coming
<0935> (8802)_.

{to meditate: or, to pray}

And Rebekah
<07259>

lifted up
<05375> (8799)

her eyes
<05869>_,

and when she saw
<07200> (8799)

Isaac
<03327>_,

she lighted
<05307> (8799)

off
<05921>

the camel
<01581>_.

For she [had] said
<0559> (8799)

unto the servant
<05650>_,

What
<04310>

man
<0376>

[is] this
<01976>

that walketh
<01980> (8802)

in the field
<07704>

to meet us
<07125> (8800)_?

And the servant
<05650>

[had] said
<0559> (8799)_,

It [is] my master
<0113>_:

therefore she took
<03947> (8799)

a vail
<06809>_,

and covered herself
<03680> (8691)_.

And the servant
<05650>

told
<05608> (8762)

Isaac
<03327>

all things
<01697>

that he had done
<06213> (8804)_.

And Isaac
<03327>

brought her
<0935> (8686)

into his mother
<0517>

Sarah's
<08283>

tent
<0168>_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

Rebekah
<07259>_,

and she became his wife
<0802>_;

and he loved
<0157> (8799)

her: and Isaac
<03327>

was comforted
<05162> (8735)

after
<0310>

his mother's
<0517>

[death].
