35 and Yah Veh blessed my adoni mightily and he greatened: and he gave him flocks and oxen and silver and gold and servants and maids and camels and he burros.
36 And Sarah the woman of my adoni birthed a son to my adoni when she was aged: and gave him all he has.
37 And my adoni oathed me, saying, Take not a woman to my son of the daughters of the Kenaaniy in whose land I settle:
38 but go to the house of my father and my family and take a woman to my son.
39 And I say to my adoni, Perhaps the woman wills to not go after me.
40 And he says to me, Yah Veh, at whose face I walk, sends his angel with you to prosper your way; take a woman for my son of my family and of the house of my father:
41 then you become exonerated from my oath when you come to my family: and if they not give you, you become exonerated from my oath.
42 And I come this day to the fountain and say, O Yah Veh Elohim of my adoni Abraham, if now you prosper the way I go:
43 behold, I station myself by the fountain of water; and so be it, that when the virgin comes to bail and I say to her, Give me, I pray you, a little water from your pitcher to drink;
44 and she says to me, Both, you drink; and I also bail for your camels - let that be the woman whom Yah Veh approves for the son of my adoni.
45 And ere I finish wording in mine heart, behold, Ribqah comes with her pitcher on her shoulder; and she descends to the fountain and bails: and I say to her, Give me drink, I pray you.
46 And she hastens and lowers her pitcher and says, Drink and I water your camels also: so I drink and she waters the camels also.
47 And I ask her and say, Whose daughter are you? And she says, the daughter of Bethu El, the son of Nachor, whom Milchah birthed to him. - and I put the nosering on her nostrils and the bracelets on her hands:
48 and I bow and prostrate to Yah Veh and bless Yah Veh Elohim of my adoni Abraham, who led me in the way of truth to take the daughter of the brother of my adoni to his son.
49 And now if you work in mercy and truth with my adoni, tell me: and if not, tell me; so that I face right, or left.
50 Then Laban and Bethu El answer and say, The word proceeds from Yah Veh: we cannot word to you evil or good.
51 Behold, Ribqah faces you, take and go, to become the woman of the son of your adoni as Yah Veh worded.
52 And so be it, when the servant of Abraham hears their words, he prostrates to Yah Veh - prostrating to the earth:
53 and the servant brings instruments of silver and instruments of gold and clothing and gives them to Ribqah: he also gives preciousnesses to her brother and to her mother:
54 and they eat and drink - he and the men with him and stay overnight; and they rise in the morning, and he says, Send me to my adoni.
55 And her brother and her mother say, Let the lass sit with us days - or ten; and after that, go.
56 And he says to them, Delay me not, seeing Yah Veh prospers my way; send me to go to my adoni.
57 And they say, We call the lass and ask at her mouth.
58 And they call Ribqah and say to her, Go you with this man? And she says, I go.
59 And they send Ribqah their sister and her suckler and the servant of Abraham and his men:
60 and they bless Ribqah and say to her, You are our sister - become myriads of millions, so that your seed possesses the portal of those who hate it.
61 And Ribqah and her lasses rise and ride on the camels and go after the man: and the servant takes Ribqah and goes.
62 And Yischaq comes from the way of Beer Lachay Roi; for he settles in the south land:
63 and Yischaq goes to meditate in the field at the face of the evening: and he lifts his eyes and sees, and behold, the camels coming.
64 And Ribqah lifts her eyes and she sees Yischaq, and she falls off the camel:
65 and she says to the servant, Who is this very man walking in the field to meet us? And the servant says, It is my adoni. - and she takes a veil and covers herself.
66 And the servant describes to Yischaq all words he worked.
67 And Yischaq brings her into the tent of his mother Sarah and takes Ribqah: and she becomes his woman; and he loves her: and Yischaq sighs after his mother.
