CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ And Abraham is old, come to days. And Yahweh blesses Abraham in all things. ² And saying is Abraham to his servant, the oldest of his household, the ruler over all that is his, "Pray place your hand under my thigh, ³ and adjure you will I by Yahweh, the Elohim of the heavens and the Elohim of the earth, that you will not take a wife for my son Isaac from the daughters of the Canaanite near whom I am dwelling, ⁴ for to my land whence I came, and to my kindred should you go, and take a wife for my son, for Isaac, thence. ⁵ And saying to him is the servant, "Perhaps the woman will not be willing to go after me to this land. Shall I restore, yea restore your son to the land whence you fared forth? ⁶ And saying to him is Abraham, "Beware you, lest you restore my son thither!" ⁷ Yahweh, the Elohim of the heavens and the Elohim of the earth, Who took me from my father's household and from the land of my kindred, whence I came, and Who spoke to me, and Who swore to me, saying, `To you and your seed will I give this land,' He will send His messenger before you, and you take a wife for my son, Isaac, thence. ⁸ And should the woman not be willing to go after you to this land, innocent are you of this my oath, but my son you shall not restore thither. ⁹ And placing is the servant his hand under the thigh of Abraham, his lord, and is swearing to him on account of this matter. ¹⁰ And taking is the servant ten camels from the camels of his lord, and is going. And all manner of good things of his lord are in his hand. And rising is he and going to Syria of the streams, to the city of Nahor. ¹¹ And causing is he the camels to kneel outside the city at a well of water at eventide, the time the women fare forth to bail it. ¹² And saying is he, "Yahweh, Elohim of my lord Abraham, pray, cause a meeting before me today, and do a kindness to my lord Abraham. ¹³ Behold! I am stationed at this spring of water, and the daughters of the mortals of the city will fare forth to bail water. ¹⁴ And comes it that the maiden to whom I will say, `Pray stretch out your jar and give me a drink,' says to me, `Drink. And moreover, your camels also will I give to drink till they should finish drinking', that her You do find correct for Your servant, for Isaac, and by it will I know that You do a kindness to my lord Abraham. ¹⁵ And coming is it, ere he finishes speaking in his heart, that behold! Rebecca is faring forth, who was born to Bethuel, the son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, and her jar is on her shoulder. ¹⁶ And the maiden is of exceedingly good appearance, a virgin, and not a man had known her. And down is she going to the spring, and is filling her jar and is coming up. ¹⁷ And running is the servant to meet her, and is saying, "Pray, let me sup a little water from your jar. ¹⁸ And saying is she, "Drink, my lord.And hastening is she and is letting down her jar on her hand and giving him to drink. ¹⁹ And finishing is she giving him to drink and is saying, "Moreover, for your camels will I bail till they should finish drinking. ²⁰ And hastening is she and emptying her jar into the drinking basin, and running again to the well to bail. And bailing is she for all his camels. ²¹ And the man is in a tumult over her, and silent, to know if Yahweh prospers his way or not? ²² And coming is it, as the camels finish drinking, taking is the man a pendant of gold, its weight a bekah, and is placing it on her nose, and two bracelets on her hands of ten gold shekels' weight. ²³ And he inquires of her and is saying, "Whose daughter are you? Tell me, pray. Forsooth, in the house of your father, is there place for us to lodge? ²⁴ And saying is she to him, "A daughter am I of Bethuel, the son of Milcah, whom she bore for Nahor. ²⁵ And saying is she to him, "Moreover, crushed straw and provender there is much with us, and, moreover, a place to lodge. ²⁶ And bowing is the man his head and worshiping Yahweh. ²⁷ And saying is he, "Blessed be Yahweh, Elohim of my lord Abraham, Who does not forsake His kindness and His truth with my lord Abraham. I am on the right way. Guided me has Yahweh to the house of my lord's brothers. ²⁸ And running is the maiden and telling her mother's household as to these matters. ²⁹ And Rebecca has a brother, and his name is Laban. And running is Laban to the man outside at the spring. ³⁰ And coming is it, as he sees the pendant, and the bracelets on his sister's hands, and as he hears the words of Rebecca, his sister, saying, "Thus spoke the man to me,that coming is he to the man. And behold! Standing is he with the camels at the spring. ³¹ And saying is he to him, "Come, blessed of Yahweh! Why are you standing outside when I have prepared a surface in the house and a place for the camels? ³² And coming is the man into the house. Yet, unloosening is he the camels' girths and giving crushed straw and provender to the camels, and water to wash his feet and the feet of the mortals who are with him. ³³ And placing is he bread before him to eat. Yet saying is he, "Not eat will I till I should speak my word.And saying is he, "Speak. ³⁴ And saying is he, "A servant of Abraham am I. ³⁵ And Yahweh has blessed my lord exceedingly, and he is growing great, and He is giving to him a flock and a herd and silver and gold and servants and maids and camels and asses. ³⁶ And Sarah, the wife of my lord, bore one son for my lord after she was old. And give will he to him all that he has. ³⁷ And adjuring me is my lord saying, `You shall not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanite, in whose land I dwell, ³⁸ for you should go to the household of my father, and to my family, and take a wife for my son thence.. ³⁹ And saying am I to my lord, `Perhaps the woman will not go after me.. ⁴⁰ And saying is he to me, `Yahweh Elohim, before Whom I walk, He will send His messenger with you and prosper your way. And take shall you a wife for my son from my family, and from the household of my father. ⁴¹ Then you shall be innocent from my oath of imprecation. For come shall you to my family, and should they not give to you, then you shall be innocent from my oath of imprecation.. ⁴² And coming am I today to the spring. "And saying am I, `Yahweh, Elohim of my lord Abraham, pray, shouldst You, forsooth, be prospering my way on which I am now going, ⁴³ behold! I am stationed at the spring of water where the daughters of the mortals of the city will fare forth to bail water. And comes it that the damsel is faring forth to bail, and I say to her, "Pray give me a little water to drink from your jar, ⁴⁴ and she says to me, "You drink, and, moreover, for your camels will I bail,she is the woman whom Yahweh finds correct for Isaac, the son of my lord, and by this will I know that You do a kindness to my lord Abraham.. ⁴⁵ Ere I am finishing speaking in my heart, behold! Rebecca is faring forth, and her jar is on her shoulder, and down is she going to the spring and is bailing. "And saying am I to her, `Give me a little water to drink, pray, from your jar.. ⁴⁶ And hastening is she and letting down her jar on her hand and is saying, `Drink. And, moreover, your camels will I give a drink.' And drinking am I, and, moreover, she gives the camels a drink. ⁴⁷ And asking her am I and saying, `Whose daughter are you?' And saying is she, `A daughter of Bethuel, son of Nahor, whom Milcah bore for him.' And placing am I the pendant on her nose and the bracelets on her hands. ⁴⁸ And bowing my head am I and worshiping Yahweh, and blessing Yahweh, Elohim of my lord Abraham, Who guides me in the way of truth, to take the daughter of my lord's brother for his son. ⁴⁹ And now, if you, forsooth, deal in kindness and truth with my lord, tell me. And if not, tell me, and I will face to the right or to the left. ⁵⁰ And answering are Laban and Bethuel and saying, "From Yahweh fares forth this matter. We cannot speak to you evil or good. ⁵¹ Behold! Rebecca is before you. Take her and go, and she shall become the wife of your lord's son, as Yahweh speaks. ⁵² And coming is it, as Abraham's servant hears their words, that he is prostrating to the earth to Yahweh. ⁵³ And forth is the servant bringing articles of silver and articles of gold and clothes, and is giving them to Rebecca. And token presents he gives to her brother and her mother. ⁵⁴ And eating are they and drinking, he and the mortals who are with him, and lodging. And rising are they in the morning, and saying is he, "Send me, and I will go to my lord. ⁵⁵ And saying are her brothers and her mother, "The maiden shall dwell with us two days or ten. And afterward she shall go. ⁵⁶ And saying is he to them, "You must not delay me when Yahweh prospers my way. Send me, and I will go to my lord. ⁵⁷ And saying are they, "We will call the maiden and ask at her mouth. ⁵⁸ And calling are they Rebecca and saying to her, "Will you go with this man?And saying is she, "I will go. ⁵⁹ And sending are they Rebecca, their sister, and her wet-nurse, and Abraham's servant and his mortals. ⁶⁰ And blessing are they Rebecca, their sister, and saying to her, "Our sister are you. May you become thousands of myriads, and may your seed tenant the gateway of those hating them. ⁶¹ And rising is Rebecca and her maidens, and they are riding on camels, and are going after the man. And taking is the servant Rebecca and is going. ⁶² Now Isaac comes into the wilderness, to the well Lehirai.
