30. When he saw the ring, and the bracelets on his sister’s hands, and when he heard the words of Rebekah his sister, saying, “This is what the man said to me,” he came to the man. Behold, he was standing by the camels at the spring.

31. He said, “Come in, you blessed of the Lord. Why do you stand outside? For I have prepared the house, and room for the camels.”

32. The man came into the house, and he unloaded the camels. He gave straw and feed for the camels, and water to wash his feet and the feet of the men who were with him.

33. Food was set before him to eat, but he said, “I will not eat until I have told my message.”Laban said, “Speak on.”

34. He said, “I am Abraham’s servant.

35. The Lord has blessed my master greatly. He has become great. The Lord has given him flocks and herds, silver and gold, male servants and female servants, and camels and donkeys.

36. Sarah, my master’s wife, bore a son to my master when she was old. He has given all that he has to him.

37. My master made me swear, saying, ‘You shall not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I live,

38. but you shall go to my father’s house, and to my relatives, and take a wife for my son.’

39. I asked my master, ‘What if the woman will not follow me?’

40. He said to me, ‘The Lord, before whom I walk, will send his angel with you, and prosper your way. You shall take a wife for my son from my relatives, and of my father’s house.
