48. Then I bowed down and worshiped the Lord. I praised the Lord, the God of my master Abraham, who had led me on the right path to find the granddaughter of my master’s brother for his son.
49. Now, if you will show faithful love to my master, tell me. But if not, tell me as well, so that I may go on my way.”
50. Then Laban and Bethuel replied, “This is the Lord’s doing. Our wishes are of no concern.
51. Rebekah stands here before you. Take her and go so that she may become the wife of your master’s son, just as the Lord has decided.”
52. When Abraham’s servant heard their words, he bowed down to the ground before the Lord.
53. Then he brought out gold, silver jewelry, and clothing and gave them to Rebekah. He also gave valuable gifts to her brother and to her mother.
54. After this, he and the men who were with him ate a meal and stayed there overnight.When they got up in the morning, he said, “Let me leave now so I can return to my master.”
55. But Rebekah’s brother and her mother replied, “Let the girl stay with us a few more days, perhaps ten. Then she can go.”
56. But he said to them, “Don’t detain me – the Lord has granted me success on my journey. Let me leave now so I may return to my master.”
57. Then they said, “We’ll call the girl and find out what she wants to do.”
58. So they called Rebekah and asked her, “Do you want to go with this man?” She replied, “I want to go.”
59. So they sent their sister Rebekah on her way, accompanied by her female attendant, with Abraham’s servant and his men.
60. They blessed Rebekah with these words:“Our sister, may you become the mother of thousands of ten thousands! May your descendants possess the strongholds of their enemies.”
61. Then Rebekah and her female servants mounted the camels and rode away with the man. So Abraham’s servant took Rebekah and left.
62. Now Isaac came from Beer Lahai Roi, for he was living in the Negev.
63. He went out to relax in the field in the early evening. Then he looked up and saw that there were camels approaching.
64. Rebekah looked up and saw Isaac. She got down from her camel
65. and asked Abraham’s servant, “Who is that man walking in the field toward us?” “That is my master,” the servant replied. So she took her veil and covered herself.
