< उत्पत्ति 24 >

1 अब्राहाम दिन धेरै खाएर बुढा भइसकेका थिए र परमप्रभुले तिनलाई सबै कुरामा आशिष्‌ दिनुभएको थियो ।
Now, Abraham, was old, far gone in days, —and, Yahweh, had blessed Abraham, in all things.
2 अब्राहामले आफ्‍नो घरको सबै भन्दा पुरानो र तिनीसँग भएका सबै कुराहरूका अख्‍तियार गर्ने प्रमुख नोकरलाई भने, “तेरो हात मेरो तिघ्रामुनि राख्‌
So Abraham said unto his servant, elder of his house, ruler of all that he had, —Place, I pray thee thy hand under my thigh;
3 अनि तैँले अहिले म बसेको ठाउँका कनानीका छोरीहरूमध्‍ये कसैलाई पनि मेरो छोरोकी पत्‍नीको रूपमा ल्याइदिने छैनस् भनी म तँलाई स्‍वर्ग र पृथ्‍वीका परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरको यो शपथ खान लाउँछु ।
that I may put thee on oath, by Yahweh God of the heavens and God of the earth—That thou wilt not take a wife for my son, from among the daughters of the Canaanites in the midst of whom, I, am dwelling:
4 तर तैँले मेरो देशमा मेरै कुटुम्‍बकहाँ गएर मेरो छोरा इसहाकको लागि एउटी पत्‍नी ल्‍याउनेछस् ।”
but unto my own land and unto my own kindred, wilt go, —So shalt thou take a wife for my son—for Isaac.
5 त्यस नोकरले तिनलाई भन्यो, “यदि त्‍यो स्‍त्री मेरो पछि लागेर यस देशमा आउने इच्‍छा गरिन भने मैले के गर्ने? के मैले तपाईंका छोरालाई जुन देशबाट तपाईं आउनुभयो त्‍यहीँ नै लैजाने?”
And the servant said unto him, Peradventure the woman may not be willing to follow me into this land, —May I take back thy son, into the land from whence thou camest?
6 अब्राहामले त्‍यसलाई भने, “तैँले मेरो छोरालाई त्‍यहाँ फर्काएर नलानू!
And Abraham said unto him, —Beware that thou do not take back my son thither!
7 मलाई मेरा पिताको घर र मेरो जन्‍मभूमिबाट यहाँ ल्‍याउनुहुने स्‍वर्ग र पृथ्‍वीका परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले शपथ खाई मसँग यसो भनेर प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएको छ, ‘तेरा सन्‍तानलाई म यो देश दिनेछु,’ उहाँले नै आफ्‍ना दूत तेरो अगिअगि पठाउनुहुनेछ, र तैँले मेरो छोराको लागि त्‍यहाँबाट एउटी पत्‍नी ल्‍याउनेछस् ।
Yahweh, God of the heavens, and God of the earth, who took me out of the house of my father, and out of the land of my kindred, and, who spake to me, and who sware to me, saying, To thy seed, will I give this land, he, will send his messenger before thee, so shalt thou take a wife for my son from thence.
8 त्‍यो केटी तेरो पछि आउन इच्‍छा गरिन भने तँ मेरो यो शपथबाट मुक्‍त हुनेछस् । केवल तैँले मेरो छोरालाई चाहिँ त्‍यहाँ फर्काएर नलैजानू ।”
But if unwilling be the woman to follow thee, then shalt thou be clear from this mine oath, —Only my son, shalt thou not take back thither
9 त्यसैले त्‍यस नोकरले आफ्‍ना मालिक अब्राहामको तिघ्रामुनि हात राखेर यस विषयमा तिनीसित शपथ खायो ।
So the servant placed his hand, under the thigh of Abraham, his lord, —and sware to him, over this thing.
10 आफ्‍ना मालिकका दशवटा ऊँट लिएर त्यो नोकर बिदा भयो । त्यसले आफ्ना मालिकबाट सबै किसिमका सौगात पनि लिएर गयो । ऊ बिदा भएर अराम-नाहारैमतिर नाहोरको सहरमा गयो ।
Then took the servant ten camels, from among the camels of his lord, and went his way, —all the goods of his master being in his hand, —so be mounted, and went his way unto Mesopotamia, unto the city of Nahor.
11 त्यसले ऊँटहरूलाई सहरको बाहिर इनारको नजिकै घुँडा टेक्‍न लगायो । त्यो साँझपख स्‍त्रीहरू पानी भर्न आउने बेला थियो ।
And he made the camels kneel down outside the city, against the well of water, —at the time of evening, at the time of the coming forth of the women that drew water,
12 अनि त्यसले प्रार्थना गर्‍यो, “हे परमप्रभु मेरा मालिकका परमेश्‍वर, आज मलाई मेरो काममा सफल गराएर मेरा मालिक अब्राहामलाई आफ्‍नो दया देखाउनुहोस्‌ ।
Then he said, O Yahweh, God of my lord Abraham! I pray thee cause it to fall out before me today, that thou deal in lovingkindness with my lord Abraham.
13 हेर्नुहोस्, म यो इनारनेर उभिरहेको छु, र सहरका मानिसहरूका छोरीहरू पानी भर्नलाई आउँदै छन्‌ ।
Here am, I, stationed by the fountain of water, —and, the daughters of the men of the city, are coming forth to draw water:
14 यसैले यसो होस्‌: जुन कन्‍यालाई म ‘तिम्रो गाग्रो मतिर पानी पिउनलाई ढल्‍काइदेऊ’ भनुँला, र जसले मलाई ‘खानुहोस्, म तपाईंका ऊँटहरूलाई पनि खुवाइदिन्‍छु’ भन्‍छिन्, तिनलाई नै तपाईंले आफ्‍ना दास इसहाकको निम्‍ति रोज्‍नुभएको होस्‌ । तपाईंले मेरा मालिकलाई करारको दया देखाउनुभएको रहेछ भन्‍ने म त्‍यसैबाट थाहा पाउनेछु ।”
so it shall come to pass that the young woman unto whom I shall say. Let down pray. thy pitcher that I may drink, and she shall say, Drink, and to thy camels also, will I give to drink, that, her! hast thou appointed for thy servant for Isaac, And, hereby, shall I get to know, that thou hast dealt in lovingkindness with my lord!
15 त्‍यसले यो भनिसकेको पनि थिएन, रिबेका काँधमा गाग्रो राखेर आइन्‌ । तिनी अब्राहामका भाइ नाहोरकी पत्‍नी मिल्‍काको छोरो बतूएलकी छोरी थिइन् ।
And it came to pass, ere yet, he, had done speaking, that lo! Rebekah, was coming forth who had been born to Bethuel son of Milcah, wife of Nahor, brother of Abraham, —with her pitcher upon her shoulder,
16 ती जवान स्‍त्री अत्‍यन्‍त सुन्‍दरी र कुमारी थिइन् । तिनको कुनै मानिससित पनि सहवास भएको थिएन । इनारमा ओर्लेर तिनले गाग्रोमा पानी भरिन्‌ र उक्‍लेर आइन्‌ ।
Now the young woman! was of very pleasing appearance, a virgin whom, no man, had known, —and she went down unto the fountain, and filled her pitcher and came up.
17 तब त्‍यो नोकर तिनलाई भेट गर्न दगुर्‍यो र भन्‍यो, “कृपया तिम्रो गाग्रोबाट मलाई अलिकता पानी पिउन देऊ ।”
And the servant ran to meet her, —and said, I pray thee let me drink a little water out of thy pitcher.
18 तिनले “हजूर, पिउनुहोस्‌” भनेर तुरुन्‍तै गाग्रो झारिन्, र आफ्‍नो हातमा गाग्रो राखेर त्‍यसलाई पानी पियाइन् ।
And she said, Drink my lord, —And she hastened and lowered her pitcher on her hand and let him drink.
19 त्‍यसलाई पिउन दिइसकेपछि तिनले भनिन्, “तपाईंका ऊँटहरूका निम्‍ति पनि तिनीहरूले पिई नसकुञ्‍जेल म पानी उघाएर दिनेछु ।”
And when she had done giving him drink, —she said For thy camels also, will I draw, until they have done drinking.
20 तब तिनले झट्टै आफ्‍नो गाग्रोको पानी डुँडमा खन्‍याएर फेरि पानी उघाउन इनारतिर दौडेर गइन्, र तिनले सबै ऊँटहरूका निम्‍ति पनि पानी उघाइदिइन्‌ ।
So she hastened and emptied her pitcher into the drinking-trough, and ran again unto the well, to draw, —and she drew for all his camels.
21 त्‍यो मानिसचाहिँ परमप्रभुले आफ्‍नो यात्रा सफल गरिदिनुभएको हो कि होइन भनी थाहा पाउनलाई चुप लागेर तिनलाई हेरिरह्यो ।
Now the man, was eagerly watching her, —keeping silence to see—whether Yahweh had prospered his way., or not.
22 ऊँटहरूले पानी खाइसकेपछि त्‍यस मानिसले छ ग्राम तौलका सुनको एउटा नत्‍थ र एक सय ग्राम जति तौलका सुनका बालाहरू झिकेर
And it came to pass when the camels had done drinking, that the man took a ring of gold, half a shekel its weight, —and two bracelets for her hands, ten of gold their weight;
23 भन्‍यो, “तिमी कसकी छोरी हौ? कृपया मलाई भन, के तिम्रा बुबाको घरमा रात गुजार्नको निम्ति हाम्रो निम्ति ठाउँ छ?”
and said Whose daughter art, thou? I pray thee, tell me. Is there in the house of thy father a place for us to tarry the night?
24 तिनले त्‍यसलाई भनिन्, “म नाहोरबाट मिल्‍काले जन्‍माएका बतूएलकी छोरी हुँ ।”
And she said unto him, Daughter of Bethuel, am, I,—[Bethuel] son of Milcah whom she bare to Nahor.
25 तिनले त्‍यसलाई अझै भनिन्, “हामीसँग दाना र पराल प्रशस्‍त छन्, र रात गुजार्नलााई कोठा पनि छन्‌ ।”
And she said unto him, Both straw and fodder in plenty, have we, —also a place to tarry the night.
26 तब त्‍यस मानिसले आफ्‍नो शिर निहुराएर परमप्रभुको आराधना गर्‍यो ।
Then the man bowed his head, and bent himself down unto Yahweh;
27 त्यसले भन्यो, “परमप्रभु, मेरा मालिक अब्राहामका परमेश्‍वर धन्‍यका हुनुहुन्‍छ, जसले मेरा मालिकप्रतिको करारको दया र विश्‍वस्‍तता त्‍याग्‍नुभएको छैन । परमप्रभुले नै मलाई डोर्‍याएर मेरा मालिकका कुटुम्‍बको घरमा ल्‍याइदिनुभएको छ ।”
and said, Blessed be Yahweh. God of my lord Abraham, who hath not withdrawn his lovingkindness and his faithfulness, from my lord, —I—being in the way, Yahweh led me unto the house of the brethren of my lord!
28 तब ती कन्‍या गइन् र आफ्‍नी आमाका परिवारलाई सबै कुरा बताइन्‌ ।
And the young woman ran, and told the household of her mother, —according to these words.
29 रिबेकाका लाबान नाउँ भएका एक जना दाजु थिए । लाबान दौडेर बाहिर बाटोमा इनारनेर भएका त्‍यस मानिसतिर गए ।
Now, Rebekah, had a brother, whose name, was Laban, —so Laban ran unto the man outside, unto the fountain.
30 जब उनले आफ्‍नी बहिनीको नाकमा नत्‍थ र हातमा बाला देखे र “त्‍यस मानिसले मलाई यसो भन्‍यो” भन्‍ने कुरा आफ्‍नी बहिनीबाट सुने, तब उनी त्‍यस मानिसकहाँ गए, त्यो मानिस इनारको छेउमा ऊँटहरूका नजिकै उभिइरहेको थियो ।
And it came to pass, when he saw the ring, and the bracelets on the hands of his sister, and when he heard the words of Rebekah his sister saying, Thus, did the man speak unto me, that he came unto the man, and lo! he was standing by the camels near the fountain;
31 त्यसपछि लाबानले भने, “हे परमप्रभुका आशीर्वादी जन, आउनुहोस्‌ । किन बाहिरै उभिरहनुहुन्‍छ? मैले तपाईंको निम्‍ति घर र ऊँटहरूका लागि ठाउँ तयार पारिराखेको छु ।”
and he said, Come in. thou blessed of Yahweh, —Wherefore shouldst thou stand outside, when I have made ready the house and a place for the camels?
32 तब त्‍यो मानिस घरमा गयो र ऊँटहरूका भारीहरू झार्‍यो । उँटहरूलाई पराल र दाना दिइयो, अनि त्यस मानिस र त्‍यससित हुने मानिसहरूका निम्‍ति खुट्टा धुने पानी पनि दिइयो ।
So the man came in towards the house, and ungirded the camels, —and there was given him straw and fodder for the camels, and water for bathing his own feet and the feet of the men who were with him;
33 तिनीहरूले त्‍यसको सामु खानेकुरा पनि राखिदिए, तर त्‍यसले भन्‍यो, “जबसम्‍म मेरो समाचार म भन्‍दिनँ तबसम्‍म म केही खान्‍नँ ।” तब लाबानले भने, “ल, भन्‍नुहोस्‌ ।”
and [food] was set before him to eat, But he said, I cannot eat, until I have spoken my words. And he said—Speak!
34 त्‍यसले भन्‍यो, “म अब्राहामको एक नोकर हुँ ।
Then said he, —Servant of Abraham, am I.
35 परमप्रभुले मेरा मालिकलाई धेरै आशिष्‌ दिनुभएको छ र तिनी एक ठुला मानिस भएका छन्‌ । उहाँले तिनलाई बगालहरू र बथानहरू, सुनचाँदी, दास-दासी, ऊँटहरू र गधाहरू दिनुभएको छ ।
Now, Yahweh, having blessed my lord exceedingly, and made him great, —and given him flocks and herds and silver and gold, and men-servants and maid-servants, and camels, and asses,
36 मेरा मालिककी पत्‍नी साराले बुढेसकालमा तिनको निम्‍ति एक जना छोरो जन्माइन्, र उनैलाई तिनले आफ्‍ना सबै कुरा दिएका छन्‌ ।
then did Sarah wife of my lord, bear a son to my lord, after she had become old, —so he gave to him all that he had;
37 मेरो मालिकले मलाई यसो भनेर शपथ खान लाएका छन्, ‘तैँले मेरो छोराको लागि म अहिले बसेको देशका कनानीहरूका छोरीहरूमध्‍ये कुनै पनि विवाह गर्नलाई नल्‍याउनू ।
And my lord put me on oath saying, —Thou shalt not take a wife for my son, of the daughters of the Canaanites in whose land, I, am dwelling;
38 बरु, तैँले मेरा पिताका परिवार र मेरा कुटुम्बहरूकहाँ गएर मेरो छोराको निम्ति पत्‍नी ल्याउनू ।'
but, unto the house of my father, shalt thou go, and unto my family, —and take a wife for my son.
39 मैले मेरो मालिकलाई भनेँ, 'सायद त्‍यो स्‍त्री मेरो साथमा आउन मान्दिन होला?'
So I said unto my lord, —Peradventure the woman will not follow me.
40 तिनले मलाई भने, ‘जुन परमप्रभुको सामुन्‍ने म हिँड्‌छु, उहाँले नै आफ्‍ना दूत तँसित पठाउनुहुनेछ, र तेरो कार्य सफल हुनेछ, ताकि तैैँले मेरो कुटुम्‍ब र मेरा पिताको घरबाट मेरो छोराको लागि एउटी पत्‍नी ल्‍याउनेछस्‌ ।
And he said unto me, —Yahweh, before whom I have walked to and fro, will send his messenger with thee, so shall he prosper thy way, and thou shalt take a wife for my son out of my kindred and out of the house of my father.
41 तर तँ मेरो कुटुम्‍बकहाँ पुगिस् र तिनीहरूले तिनलाई दिएनन् भने तँ मेरो यस शपथबाट छुट्‌नेछस्‌ ।'
Then, shalt thou clear thyself from mine oath, for thou shalt go in unto my kindred, —and, if they will not grant her unto thee, then shalt thou be clear from mine oath.
42 यसैले आज इनारमा आइपुगेर मैले यसो भनेँ, 'हे परमप्रभु, मेरा मालिक अब्राहामका परमेश्‍वर, मेरो यात्रा सफल गराइदिने तपाईंको इच्छा भए,
So I came in to-day, unto the fountain, —and I said O Yahweh God of my lord Abraham! if, I pray thee thou art prospering my way whereon I am going,
43 म इनारको छेउमा उभिरहेछु, पानी भर्नलाई आउने स्‍त्रीलाई मैले 'तिम्रो गाग्रोबाट मलाई अलिकता पानी पिउन देऊ,' भन्‍दा
here, am I stationed by the fountain of water, —so then it shall come to pass that, the maiden that is coming forth to draw, and I shall say unto her Let me drink. I pray thee a little water out of thy pitcher;
44 तिनले मलाई “खानुहोस्, र म तपाईंका ऊँटहरूलाई पनि पानी उघाइदिनेछु,” भनिन् भने, मेरा मालिकका छोराको लागि परमप्रभुले ठहराउनुभएको स्‍त्री त्यही होस् ।
and she shall say unto me Both, thou, drink, and for thy camels also, will I draw, the same, shall be the woman whom Yahweh hath appointed for the son of my lord.
45 “मैले यी कुरा मनमनै भनिसक्‍न अगि नै, हेर्नुहोस्, रिबेका काँधमा आफ्‍नो गाग्रो बोकेर आइन्, र इनारमा ओर्लेर पानी उघाइन्‌ । मैले तिनलाई भनेँ, ‘कृपया मलाई पानी पिउन देऊ ।’
Ere yet, I, could make an end of speaking unto mine own heart, lo! then Rebekah, coming forth, with her pitcher on her shoulder, and she went down to the fountain, and drew, —and I said unto her Let me drink I pray thee!
46 “तिनले तुरुन्‍तै आफ्‍नो काँधबाट गाग्रो झारेर भनिन्, ‘पिउनुहोस् र म तपाईंका ऊँटहरूका निम्‍ति पनि पानी पिउन दिनेछु ।’ तब मैले पानी पिएँ, र तिनले मेरा ऊँटहरूलाई पनि पानी पिउन दिइन्‌ ।
So she hastened and lowered her pitcher from off her, and said. Drink! and to thy camels also, will I give to drink, —So I drank and the camels also, she let drink.
47 “मैले तिनलाई ‘तिमी कसकी छोरी हौ?’ भनी सोधेँ । “तिनले भनिन्, ‘नाहोर र मिल्‍काका छोरा बतूएलकी छोरी हुँ ।’ तब मैले तिनको नाकमा नत्‍थ र हातमा बालाहरू लगाइदिएँ ।
Then I asked her, and said, Whose daughter art thou? And she said Daughter of Bethuel son of Nahor, whom, Milcah, bare to him, —Then put I the ring upon her nose, and the bracelets upon her hands;
48 अनि मैले आफ्‍नो शिर निहुराएर परमप्रभुको आराधना गरेँ, र मेरा मालिक अब्राहामका परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरलाई धन्‍यको भनेँ, जसले मेरा मालिककै भाइकी नातिनी तिनका छोराको निम्‍ति पत्ता लगाउन मलाई ठिक बाटोमा डोर्‍याउनुभएको थियो ।
and bowed my head and bent myself down unto Yahweh, —and I blessed Yahweh God of my lord Abraham, who had led me in a way of faithfulness, to take the daughter of the brother of my lord for his son.
49 अब तपाईंहरू मेरा मालिकसँग करारको विश्‍वासयोग्‍यता र भरोसायोग्य व्‍यवहार गर्नुहुन्‍छ भने मलाई भन्‍नुहोस्‌ । होइन भने पनि मलाई भन्‍नुहोस्, र म दाहिने-देब्रे जता हुन्‍छ लागुँला ।”
Now, therefore, if ye are dealing in lovingkindness and faithfulness with my lord, tell me, —and, if not, tell me, that I may turn unto the right hand or unto the left.
50 तब लाबान र बतूएलले जवाफ दिए, “यो कुरा परमप्रभुबाट नै हुन आएको हो । हामी तपाईंलाई खराब अथवा असल केही भन्‍न सक्‍दैनौँ ।
Then answered Laban and Bethuel and said, from Yahweh, hath come forth the word, —we cannot speak unto thee ill or well.
51 हेर्नुस्, रिबेका तपाईँको सामुन्‍ने छे । त्‍यसलाई लिएर जानुस्, र परमप्रभुले भन्‍नुभएजस्‍तै गरी त्यो तपाईंका मालिकका छोराकी पत्‍नी होस्‌ ।”
Lo! Rebekah, is before thee, Take her and go thy way, —And let her become wife unto the son of thy lord, as Yahweh hath spoken.
52 तिनीहरूका कुरा सुनेपछि अब्राहामको नोकरले भूइँमा निहुरेर परमप्रभुलाई दण्‍डवत्‌ गर्‍यो ।
And it came to pass when Abraham’s servant heard their words, that he bowed himself down towards the earth unto Yahweh.
53 तब त्‍यसले सुन र चाँदीका गहनाहरू र लुगाहरू ल्‍याएर रिबेकालाई दियो । त्‍यसले तिनका दाजु र आमालाई पनि मूल्‍यवान्‌ उपहारहरू दियो ।
Then the servant brought forth jewels of silver and jewels of gold and raiment, and gave unto Rebekah, —and precious things, gave he to her brother and to her mother.
54 तब त्‍यो र त्‍यसका साथमा भएका मानिसहरूले खाए र पिए । तिनीहरूले त्‍यो रात त्‍यहीँ बिताए अनि बिहान उठेपछि त्‍यसले भन्‍यो, “मेरा मालिककहाँ जान अब मलाई बिदा दिनुहोस्‌ ।”
And they did eat and drink he, and the men who were with him, and they tarried the night, —and when they arose in the morning, he said Let me go unto my lord!
55 रिबेकाका दाजु र आमाले भने, “कन्‍यालाई कम्तीमा पनि दस दिन यहीँ हामीसँग रहन दिनुहोस्‌ । त्‍यसपछि तिनी गए हुन्‍छ ।”
Then said her brother and her mother, Let the young woman remain with us some days or rather ten, —After that, she shall go.
56 तर त्‍यसले तिनीहरूलाई भन्‍यो, “परमप्रभुले मेरो यात्रा सफल गराउनुभएको हुनाले मलाई नअलमल्‍याउनुहोस्‌ । मलाई जान दिनुहोस्, र म मेरा मालिककहाँ जानेछु ।”
And he said unto them, Do not hinder me, when, Yahweh, hath prospered my journey, —Let me go, that I may take my journey unto my lord!
57 तिनीहरूले भने, “हामी कन्‍यालाई बोलाउँछौँ र तिनलाई सोध्छौँ ।”
Then said they, We must call the young woman and ask at her mouth.
58 अनि तिनीहरूले रिबेकालाई डाकेर सोधे, “के तिमी यस मानिसको साथमा जान्‍छ्यौ?” तिनले भनिन्, “म जान्‍छु ।”
So they called Rebekah and said unto her, Wilt thou go with this man? And she said, I will go.
59 यसैकारण तिनीहरूले आफ्‍नी बहिनी रिबेकालाई तिनकी सेविकासँगै अब्राहामको नोकर र त्‍यसका मानिसहरूका साथमा पठाइदिए ।
So they let go Rebekah their sister, and her nurse, and Abraham’s servant and his men.
60 तिनीहरूले रिबेकालाई आशिष्‌ दिएर भने, “हे हाम्री बहिनी, तिमी हजारौँ हजारका आमा होऊ, र तिम्रा सन्‍तानले तिनीहरूसँग दुश्‍मनी गर्नेहरूका सहरका प्रवेशद्वारहरू कब्‍जा गरून्‌ ।”
And they blessed Rebekah and said to her, Our sister! become thou, thousands of ten thousands, —And let thy seed take possession of the gate of them that hate them!
61 तब रिबेका उठिन् र तिनका सहेलीहरूसँग ऊँटहरूमा चढेर त्‍यस मानिसको पछि लागिन् । यसरी रिबेकालाई लिएर त्‍यो नोकर आफ्‍नो बाटो लाग्‍यो ।
Then mounted Rebekah and her young woman and they rode upon the camels, and followed the man, —so the servant took Rebekah. and went his way.
62 अब इसहाक नेगेवमा बसोबास गरिरहेका थिए, उनी बेअर-लहै-रोइबाट भर्खरै आएका थिए ।
Now, Isaac, had come in at the entrance, of Beer-lahai-roi, —for, he, was dwelling in the land of the South:
63 इसहाक साँझपख एकाग्रताका निम्ति बाहिर निस्‍केका थिए । उनले आँखा उठाएर हेर्दा ऊँटहरू आइरहेका देखे ।
and Isaac came forth to meditate in the field at the approach of evening, —so he lifted up his eyes and looked, and lo! camels, coming in.
64 रिबेकाले पनि आँखा उठाएर हेर्दा इसहाकलाई देखिन्, र ऊँटबाट ओर्लिन् ।
And Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and saw Isaac, —so she alighted with haste from off the camel;
65 तिनले नोकरलाई भनिन्, “हामीलाई भेट्‌न बाहिर हिँड्‌दै आउने मानिस को हुन्‌?” त्‍यस नोकरले भन्‍यो, “उनी त मेरा मालिक हुन्‌ ।” तब रिबेकाले घुम्‍टो हालेर आफ्‍नो अनुहार छोपिन्‌ ।
and said unto the servant, Who is this man that is walking in the field to meet us? And the servant said, That, is my lord. So she took the veil and covered herself.
66 त्‍यसपछि आफूले गरेका सबै काम त्‍यस नोकरले इसहाकलाई बतायो ।
And the servant recounted to Isaac, —all the things which he had done.
67 इसहाकले रिबेकालाई आफ्‍नी आमा साराको पालमा लगे, र विवाह गरे । अनि तिनी उनकी पत्‍नी भइन्, र उनले तिनलाई प्रेम गरे । यसरी आफ्‍नी आमाको मृत्‍युपछि इसहाकले सान्‍त्‍वना पाए ।'
And Isaac brought her into the tent of Sarah his mother; thus he took Rebekah and she became his wife and he loved her, —and Isaac consoled himself, for the loss of his mother.
