Genesis 24:50-67

New International Version

⁵⁰ Laban and Bethuel^(A) answered, “This is from the Lord;^(B) we can say nothing to you one way or the other.^{(C) 51} Here is Rebekah; take her and go, and let her become the wife of your master’s son, as the Lord has directed.^(D)”

⁵² When Abraham’s servant heard what they said, he bowed down to the ground before the Lord.^{(E) 53} Then the servant brought out gold and silver jewelry and articles of clothing^(F) and gave them to Rebekah; he also gave costly gifts^(G) to her brother and to her mother. ⁵⁴ Then he and the men who were with him ate and drank and spent the night there.

When they got up the next morning, he said, “Send me on my way^(H) to my master.”

⁵⁵ But her brother and her mother replied, “Let the young woman remain with us ten days or so;^(I) then you^[a] may go.”

⁵⁶ But he said to them, “Do not detain me, now that the Lord has granted success^(J) to my journey. Send me on my way^(K) so I may go to my master.”

⁵⁷ Then they said, “Let’s call the young woman and ask her about it.”^{(L) 58} So they called Rebekah and asked her, “Will you go with this man?”

“I will go,”^(M) she said.

⁵⁹ So they sent their sister Rebekah on her way,^(N) along with her nurse^(O) and Abraham’s servant and his men. ⁶⁰ And they blessed^(P) Rebekah and said to her,

⁶¹ Then Rebekah and her attendants^(S) got ready and mounted the camels and went back with the man. So the servant took Rebekah and left.

⁶² Now Isaac had come from Beer Lahai Roi,^(T) for he was living in the Negev.^{(U) 63} He went out to the field one evening to meditate,^[b](V) and as he looked up,^(W) he saw camels approaching. ⁶⁴ Rebekah also looked up and saw Isaac. She got down from her camel^{(X) 65} and asked the servant, “Who is that man in the field coming to meet us?”

“He is my master,” the servant answered. So she took her veil^(Y) and covered herself.

⁶⁶ Then the servant told Isaac all he had done. ⁶⁷ Isaac brought her into the tent^(Z) of his mother Sarah,^(AA) and he married Rebekah.^(AB) So she became his wife, and he loved her;^(AC) and Isaac was comforted after his mother’s death.^(AD)
