Genesis 24
1 Now Abraham was old, well advanced in days, and the LORD had blessed Abraham in all things.
And Abraham he was old he had come in days and Yahweh he had blessed Abraham in everything.
2 And Abraham said to his servant, the elder of his household, who was in charge over all that he had, "Please put your hand under my thigh,
And he said Abraham to servant his old of household his who was ruling over all that [belonged] to him put please hand your under thigh my.
3 and I will make you swear by the God of heaven and earth, that you must not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I am living,
So I may make swear you by Yahweh [the] God of the heavens and [the] God of the earth that not you will take a wife for son my from [the] daughters of the Canaanite[s] whom I [am] dwelling in midst its.
4 but you must go to my country and to my relatives, and get a wife for my son Isaac."
For to land my and to kindred my you will go and you will take a wife for son my for Isaac.
5 And the servant asked him, "What if the woman isn't willing to follow me to this land? Must I then bring your son back to the land from which you came?"
And he said to him the servant perhaps not she will be willing the woman to go after me to the land this ¿ really will I take back son your to the land where you came out from there.
6 Then Abraham told him, "Be careful that you do not take my son back there.
And he said to him Abraham take heed to yourself lest you should take back son my there towards.
7 Now the God of heaven, who took me from my father's household and from the land of my birth, who spoke to me and promised me on oath, saying, 'I will give this land to your offspring' -- he will send his angel before you, and you will get a wife for my son from there.
Yahweh - [the] God of the heavens who he took me from [the] household of father my and from [the] land of kindred my and who he spoke to me and who he swore an oath to me saying to offspring your I will give the land this he he will send angel his before you and you will take a wife for son my from there.
8 But if the woman isn't willing to follow you, then you will be free from this oath to me. Only you must not bring my son back there."
And if not she will be willing the woman to go after you and you will be free from oath my this only son my not you must take back there towards.
9 So the servant put his hand under the thigh of his master Abraham and gave his oath to him concerning this matter.
And he put the servant hand his under [the] thigh of Abraham master his and he swore an oath to him on the matter this.
10 Then the servant took ten camels from his master's camels and departed, having a variety of good things from his master at his disposal, and he set out and went to Aram Naharaim, to the city of Nahor.
And he took the servant ten camels from [the] camels of master his and he went and every good thing of master his [was] in hand his and he arose and he went to Aram Naharaim to [the] city of Nahor.
11 And he made the camels kneel down outside the city by the well of water at the time of evening, the time when women go out to draw water.
And he made kneel the camels from [the] outside of the city to [the] well of the water to [the] time of evening to [the] time of [the] going out of the [women who] draw water.
12 Then he said, "God of my master Abraham, please grant me success today and show kindness to my master Abraham.
And he said - O Yahweh [the] God of master my Abraham make happen please before me this day and do covenant loyalty with master my Abraham.
13 Look, I am standing by the spring of water, and the daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water.
Here! I [am] standing at [the] spring of the water and [the] daughters of [the] people of the city [are] coming out to draw water.
14 Now may it happen that the young woman to whom I will say, 'Please lower your jug that I may drink,' and she answers, 'Drink, and I will also give your camels a drink,'—her you have chosen for your servant Isaac. By this I will know that you have shown kindness to my master."
And it will be the young woman whom I will say to her bend down please jar your so I may drink and she will say drink and also camels your I will give a drink to her you have appointed for servant your for Isaac and by it I will know that you have done covenant loyalty with master my.
15 And it happened, before he had finished speaking, that look, Rebekah was coming out with her jug on her shoulder—who was born to Bethuel the son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother.
And it was he not yet he had finished to speak and there! Rebekah [was] coming out who she had been born to Bethuel [the] son of Milcah [the] wife of Nahor [the] brother of Abraham and jar her [was] on shoulder her.
16 Now the young woman was very beautiful in appearance, a virgin; no man had ever slept with her. And she went down to the spring and filled her jug and came up.
And the young woman [was] good of appearance exceedingly a virgin and a man not he had known her and she went down the spring towards and she filled jar her and she came up.
17 Then the servant ran to meet her, and said, "Please give me a little water to drink from your jug."
And he ran the servant to meet her and he said give to drink me please a little of water from jar your.
18 So she said, "Drink, my lord." And she hurried and let down her jug to her hands, and gave him a drink.
And she said drink O lord my and she hurried and she put down jar her on hand her and she gave a drink him.
19 Now when she had finished giving him a drink, she said, "I will also draw for your camels, until they have finished drinking."
And she finished to give a drink him and she said also for camels your I will draw water until they have finished to drink.
20 So she hurried and emptied her jug into the trough and ran again to the well to draw, and drew for all his camels.
And she hurried and she emptied jar her into the watering channel and she ran again to the well to draw water and she drew water for all camels his.
21 And the man watched her in silence so as to know whether God had made his journey successful or not.
And the man [was] gazing to her being silent to know ¿ had he made successful Yahweh journey his or? not.
22 And it happened, as the camels had finished drinking, that the man took a gold ring weighing a beka, which he put on her nose, and two bracelets for her hands weighing ten pieces of gold,
And it was just as they had finished the camels to drink and he took the man a ring of gold [was] a beka weight its and two bracelets on hands her [was] ten of gold weight their.
23 and said, "Whose daughter are you? Please tell me, is there room in your father's house for us to lodge?"
And he said daughter of whom? [are] you tell please to me ¿ [is] there [the] house of father your room for us to stay [the] night.
24 Then she said to him, "I am the daughter of Bethuel, the son of Milcah, whom she bore to Nahor."
And she said to him [am] [the] daughter of Bethuel I [the] son of Milcah whom she bore to Nahor.
25 And she also said to him, "We have plenty of straw and fodder, and room to lodge."
And she said to him both straw as well as fodder much which [is] with us also room to stay [the] night.
26 Then the man bowed his head and worshiped God,
And he bowed low the man and he bowed down to Yahweh.
27 and said, "Blessed be the God of my master Abraham, who has not forsaken his loving kindness and his truth toward my master. As for me, he has led me on the journey to the house of my master's relatives."
And he said [be] blessed Yahweh [the] God of master my Abraham who not he has left covenant loyalty his and faithfulness his from with master my I on the journey he has led me Yahweh [the] house of [the] relatives of master my.
28 Then the young woman ran, and told her mother's household about these words.
And she ran the young woman and she told to [the] household of mother her according to the things these.
29 Now Rebekah had a brother, and his name was Laban, and he ran out to the man at the spring.
And [belonged] to Rebekah a brother and name his [was] Laban and he ran Laban to the man the outside towards to the spring.
30 And it happened, when he saw the nose ring and the bracelets on his sister's wrists, and when he heard the words of Rebekah his sister, saying, "This is what the man said to me," that he went to the man. And look, he was standing by the camels at the spring.
And it was - when saw the ring and the bracelets on [the] hands of sister his and just as heard he [the] words of Rebekah sister his saying thus he spoke to me the man and he went to the man and there! [he was] standing with the camels at the spring.
31 And he said, "Come in, you blessed of God. Why do you stand outside? For I have prepared the house and room for the camels."
And he said come O [one] blessed of Yahweh why? are you standing on the outside and I I have made clear the house and a place for the camels.
32 So the man went into the house and he unloaded the camels. And he gave straw and fodder for the camels, and water to wash his feet and the feet of the men who were with him.
And he went the man the house towards and he unharnessed the camels and he gave straw and fodder to the camels and water to wash feet his and [the] feet of the men who [were] with him.
33 And he set before him food to eat, but he said, "I will not eat until I have told my message." And he said, "Say it."
(And it was put *Q(K)*) before him to eat and he said not I will eat until I have spoken words my and he said speak.
34 So he said, "I am Abraham's servant.
And he said [am] [the] servant of Abraham I.
35 And the Lord has blessed my master greatly, so that he has become great, and he has given him sheep and cattle, and silver and gold, and male servants and female servants, camels and donkeys.
And Yahweh he has blessed master my exceedingly and he has become great and he has given to him sheep and cattle and silver and gold and [male] servants and female servants and camels and donkeys.
36 And Sarah my master's wife bore a son to my master when she was old, and to him he has given all that he has.
And she has borne Sarah [the] wife of master my a son to master my after old age her and he has given to him all that [belongs] to him.
37 Now my master put me under oath, saying, 'You must not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I live,
And he made swear an oath me master my saying not (you must take *LA(bh)*) a wife for son my from [the] daughters of the Canaanite[s] whom I [am] dwelling in land its.
38 but you must go to my father's house, and to my relatives, and get a wife for my son.'
If not to [the] house of father my you will go and to family my and you will take a wife for son my.
39 And I said to my master, 'What if the woman will not follow me?'
And I said to master my perhaps not she will go the woman after me.
40 But he said to me, 'God, before whom I walk, will send his angel with you, and make your journey successful, and you will get a wife for my son from my relatives, and of my father's house.
And he said to me Yahweh whom I have walked about before him he will send angel his with you and he will make successful journey your and you will take a wife for son my from family my and from [the] household of father my.
41 Then will you be free from my oath, when you come to my relatives. And if they do not give her to you, then you will be free from my oath.'
Then you will be free from oath my for you will go to family my and if not they will give [her] to you and you will be free from oath my.
42 So today I came to the spring, and said, 'God of my master Abraham, if now you will make my journey successful in which I go—
And I came this day to the spring and I said O Yahweh [the] God of master my Abraham if [are] there you please [are] making successful journey my which I [am] going on it.
43 look, I am standing by this spring of water, and may it happen that the young woman who comes out to draw, to whom I will say, "Please give me a little water from your pitcher to drink,"
Here! I [am] standing at [the] spring of the water and it will be the young woman who will come out to draw water and I will say to her give to drink me please a little of water from jar your.
44 and she will say to me, "Drink, and I will also draw for your camels,"—may she be the woman who has been chosen for my master's son.'
And she will say to me both you drink and also for camels your I will draw water she [be] the woman whom he has appointed Yahweh for [the] son of master my.
45 Before I had finished praying in my heart, look, Rebekah came out with her jug on her shoulder, and she went down to the spring, and drew. And I said to her, 'Please give me a drink.'
I not yet I had finished to speak to heart my and there! Rebekah [was] coming out and jar her [was] on shoulder her and she went down the spring towards and she drew water and I said to her give a drink me please.
46 And she quickly lowered her jug from her shoulder, and said, 'Drink, and I will also give your camels a drink.' So I drank, and she also gave the camels water.
And she hurried and she put down jar her from on her and she said drink and also camels your I will give a drink to and I drank and also the camels she gave a drink.
47 Then I asked her, and said, 'Whose daughter are you?' And she replied, 'The daughter of Bethuel, Nahor's son, whom Milcah bore to him.' So I put the ring on her nose, and the bracelets on her wrists.
And I asked her and I said daughter of whom? [are] you and she said [the] daughter of Bethuel [the] son of Nahor whom she bore to him Milcah and I put the ring on nose her and the bracelets on hands her.
48 Then I bowed my head and worshiped God, and blessed the God of my master Abraham, who had guided me on the right road to find the granddaughter of my master's brother for his son.
And I bowed low and I bowed down to Yahweh and I blessed Yahweh [the] God of master my Abraham who he had led me in [the] way of truth to take [the] daughter of [the] brother of master my for son his.
49 Now if you will show kindness and truth to my master, tell me. And if not, tell me, that I may turn to the right hand, or to the left."
And now if [are] there you doing loyalty and faithfulness with master my tell to me and if not tell to me so I may turn to right or to left.
50 Then Laban and Bethuel answered, "The matter comes from God. We can't speak to you bad or good.
And he answered Laban and Bethuel and they said from Yahweh it has come out the matter not we are able to speak to you evil or good.
51 Look, Rebekah is before you. Take, and go, and let her become the wife of your master's son, as God has spoken."
Here! Rebekah [is] before you take [her] and go so may she be a wife for [the] son of master your just as he has spoken Yahweh.
52 And it happened when Abraham's servant heard their words, that he bowed himself down to the ground.
And it was just as he heard [the] servant of Abraham words their and he bowed down [the] ground towards to Yahweh.
53 Then the servant brought out articles of silver and articles of gold, and clothing, and gave them to Rebekah. And he also gave valuable gifts to her brother and to her mother.
And he brought out the servant articles of silver and articles of gold and garments and he gave [them] to Rebekah and precious gifts he gave to brother her and to mother her.
54 Then he and the men who were with him ate and drank, and spent the night. Then they got up in the morning, and he said, "Send me away to my master."
And they ate and they drank he and the men who [were] with him and they stayed [the] night and they arose in the morning and he said send away me to master my.
55 But her brother and her mother said, "Let the young woman stay with us ten days or so. After that she may go."
And he said brother her and mother her let her remain the young woman with us days or ten (after *L(S)*) she will go.
56 But he said to them, "Do not delay me, seeing that he has made my journey successful. Send me away that I may go to my master."
And he said to them may not you delay me and Yahweh he has made successful journey my send away me so let me go to master my.
57 Then they said, "We will call the young woman and ask her."
And they said let us summon the young woman and let us ask mouth her.
58 So they called Rebekah, and said to her, "Will you go with this man?" And she replied, "I will go."
And they summoned Rebekah and they said to her ¿ will you go with the man this and she said I will go.
59 So they sent away their sister Rebekah, and her nurse, and Abraham's servant, and his men.
And they sent away Rebekah sister their and suckling-nurse her and [the] servant of Abraham and men his.
60 And they blessed Rebekah, and said to her, "Our sister, may you be the mother of thousands of ten thousands, and may your descendants possess the gate of those who hate them."
And they blessed Rebekah and they said to her O sister our you become thousands of ten thousand so may it take possession of offspring your [the] gate of [those who] hate it.
61 And Rebekah and her female servants got ready, and they rode on the camels and followed the man. So the servant took Rebekah and went on his way.
And she arose Rebekah and maids her and they rode on the camels and they went after the man and he took the servant Rebekah and he went.
62 Now Isaac had come from the way of Beer Lahai Roi, for he was living in the land of the Negev.
And Isaac he came from going Beer Lahai Roi and he [was] dwelling in [the] land of the Negev.
63 And Isaac went out in the field to think in the early evening. And he lifted up his eyes and looked, and look, he saw camels approaching.
And he went out Isaac to meditate in the field to [the] turning of evening and he lifted up eyes his and he saw and there! camels [were] coming.
64 And Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and when she saw Isaac, she dismounted from the camel.
And she lifted up Rebekah eyes her and she saw Isaac and she fell from on the camel.
65 And she asked the servant, "Who is the man who is walking in the field to meet us?" And the servant said, "It is my master." Then she took her veil and covered herself.
And she said to the servant who? [is] the man this who is walking in the field to meet us and he said the servant it [is] master my and she took the veil and she covered herself.
66 And the servant told Isaac all the things that he had done.
And he recounted the servant to Isaac all the things which he had done.
67 Then Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah's tent, and took Rebekah, and she became his wife. And he loved her. So Isaac was comforted after his mother's death.
And he brought her Isaac the tent of towards Sarah mother his and he took Rebekah and she became of him a wife and he loved her and he was comforted Isaac after mother his.
