And he saidh559h8799 unto me, The LORDh3068, beforeh6440 whom I walkh1980h8694, will sendh7971h8799 his angelh4397 with thee, and prosperh6743h8689 thy wayh1870; and thou shalt takeh3947h8804 a wifeh802 for my sonh1121 of my kindredh4940, and of my father'sh1 househ1004:

41

Then shalt thou be clearh5352h8735 from this my oathh423, when thou comesth935h8799 to my kindredh4940; and if they giveh5414h8799 not thee one , thou shalt be clearh5355 from my oathh423.

42

And I cameh935h8799 this dayh3117 unto the wellh5869, and saidh559h8799, O LORDh3068 Godh430 of my masterh113 Abrahamh85, if now thou doh3426 prosperh6743h8688 my wayh1870 which I goh1980h8802:

44

And she sayh559h8804 to me, Both drinkh8354h8798 thou, and I will also drawh7579h8799 for thy camelsh1581: let the same be the womanh802 whom the LORDh3068 hath appointed outh3198h8689 for my master'sh113 sonh1121.

45

And before I had doneh3615h8762 speakingh1696h8763 in mine hearth3820, behold, Rebekahh7259 came forthh3318h8802 with her pitcherh3537 on her shoulderh7926; and she went downh3381h8799 unto the wellh5869, and drewh7579h8799 water : and I saidh559h8799 unto her, Let me drinkh8248h8685, I pray thee.

46

And she made hasteh4116h8762, and let downh3381h8686 her pitcherh3537 from her shoulder , and saidh559h8799, Drinkh8354h8798, and I will giveh8248 thy camelsh1581 drinkh8248h8686 also: so I drankh8354h8799, and she madeh8248 the camelsh1581 drinkh8248h8689 also.

47

And I askedh7592h8799 her, and saidh559h8799, Whose daughterh1323 art thou? And she saidh559h8799, The daughterh1323 of Bethuelh1328, Nahor'sh5152 sonh1121, whom Milcahh4435 bareh3205h8804 unto him: and I puth7760h8799 the earringh5141 upon her faceh639, and the braceletsh6781 upon her handsh3027.

49

And now if ye willh3426 dealh6213h8802 kindlyh2617 and trulyh571 with my masterh113, tellh5046h8685 me: and if not, tellh5046h8685 me; that I may turnh6437h8799 to the right handh3225, orh176 to the lefth8040.

50

Then Labanh3837 and Bethuelh1328 answeredh6030h8799 and saidh559h8799, The thingh1697 proceedethh3318h8804 from the LORDh3068: we cannoth3201h8799 speakh1696h8763 unto thee badh7451 orh176 goodh2896.

51

Behold, Rebekahh7259 is before theeh6440, takeh3947h8798 her , and goh3212h8798, and let her be thy master'sh113 son'sh1121 wifeh802, as the LORDh3068 hath spokenh1696h8765.

52

And it came to pass, that, when Abraham'sh85 servanth5650 heardh8085h8804 their wordsh1697, he worshippedh7812h8691 the LORDh3068, bowing himself to the earthh776.

57

And they saidh559h8799, We will callh7121h8799 the damselh5291, and enquireh7592h8799 at her mouthh6310.

58

And they calledh7121h8799 Rebekahh7259, and saidh559h8799 unto her, Wilt thou goh3212h8799 with this manh376? And she saidh559h8799, I will goh3212h8799.
