Genesis 24:53-67
Tree of Life Version
53 Then the servant brought out articles of silver and gold, and garments, and gave them to Rebekah. He also gave precious gifts to her brothers and to her mother. 54 Then they ate and drank, he and the men who were with him, and spent the night.
When they arose in the morning, he said, “Send me off to my master.”
55 But her brother with her mother said, “Let the young woman stay with us a few days—or ten. Afterwards she may go.”
56 But he said to them, “Don’t delay me, since Adonai has made my way successful. Send me off so that I can go to my master.”
57 So they said, “We’ll call the young woman and let’s ask her opinion.” 58 Then they called Rebekah and said to her, “Will you go with this man?”
She said, “I will go.”
59 So they sent Rebekah their sister off with her nanny, and Abraham’s servant and his men, 60 and they blessed Rebekah and said to her:
“Our sister, may you become
thousands of ten thousands,
and may your seed possess
the gate of those who hate him.”
61 Then Rebekah got up, with her maids, and they mounted the camels and followed after the man. So the servant took Rebekah and departed.
62 Now Isaac had come from visiting Beer-lahai-roi and was living in the land of the Negev. 63 Isaac went out to meditate strolling in the field at dusk. Then he lifted up his eyes and saw, behold, camels were coming. 64 Rebekah also lifted up her eyes and saw Isaac. Then she fell off her camel.
65 Then she said to the servant, “Who is that man there who is walking in the field—to meet us?”
The servant said, “He is my master.”
So she took the veil and covered herself. 66 Then the servant recounted to Isaac all the things he had done.
67 Then Isaac brought her into the tent of Sarah his mother, took Rebekah and she became his wife—and he loved her. So Isaac was comforted after the loss of his mother.
