ASV_Strong : Genesis 24

verses:

1. And Abraham[H85] was old[H2204], and well stricken[H935] in age[H3117]: and Jehovah[H3068] had blessed[H1288] Abraham in all things[H85].

2. And Abraham[H85] said[H559] unto his servant[H5650], the elder[H2205] of his house[H1004], that ruled over[H4910] all that he had[H7760], Put, I pray thee[H3027], thy hand under my thigh[H3409]:

3. and I will make thee swear[H7650] by Jehovah[H3068], the God[H430] of heaven[H8064] and the God[H430] of the earth[H776], that thou wilt not take[H3947] a wife[H802] for my son[H1121] of the daughters[H1323] of the Canaanites[H3669], among[H7130] whom I dwell[H3427]:

4. but thou shalt go[H3212] unto my country[H776], and to my kindred[H4138], and take[H3947] a wife[H802] for my son[H1121] Isaac[H3327].

5. And the servant[H5650] said[H559] unto him[H802], Peradventure the woman will not be willing[H14] to follow[H3212] me[H310] unto this land[H776]: must I needs bring[H7725] thy son[H1121] again[H7725] unto the land[H776] from whence thou camest[H3318]?

6. And Abraham[H85] said[H559] unto him[H8104], Beware thou that thou bring[H7725] not[H6435] my son[H1121] thither again[H7725].

7. Jehovah[H3068], the God[H430] of heaven[H8064], who took me[H3947] from my father[H1]'s house[H1004], and from the land[H776] of my nativity[H4138], and who spake[H1696] unto me[H7650], and who sware unto me[H559], saying, Unto thy seed[H2233] will I give[H5414] this land[H776]; he will send[H7971] his angel[H4397] before thee[H6440], and thou shalt take[H3947] a wife[H802] for my son from thence[H1121].

8. And if the woman[H802] be not willing[H14] to follow[H3212] thee[H310], then thou shalt be clear[H5352] from this my oath[H7621]; only thou shalt not bring[H7725] my son[H1121] thither again[H7725].

9. And the servant[H5650] put[H7760] his hand[H3027] under the thigh[H3409] of Abraham[H85] his master[H113], and sware[H7650] to him concerning[H5921] this[H2088] matter[H1697].

10. And the servant[H5650] took[H3947] ten[H6235] camels[H1581], of the camels[H1581] of his master[H113], and departed[H3212], having all goodly things[H2898] of his master[H113]'s in his hand[H3027]: and he arose[H6965], and went[H3212] to Mesopotamia[H763], unto the city[H5892] of Nahor[H5152].

11. And he made[H1288] the camels[H1581] to kneel down[H1288] without[H2351] the city[H5892] by[H413] the well[H875] of water[H4325] at the time[H6256] of evening[H6153], the time[H6256] that women go out[H3318] to draw water[H7579].

12. And he said[H559], O Jehovah[H3068], the God[H430] of my master[H113] Abraham[H85], send me[H6440], I pray thee[H7136], good speed this day[H3117], and show[H6213] kindness[H2617] unto[H5973] my master[H113] Abraham[H85].

13. Behold[H5324], I am standing by the fountain[H5869] of water[H4325]; and the daughters[H1323] of the men[H582] of the city[H5892] are coming out[H3318] to draw[H7579] water[H4325]:

14. and let it come to pass[H5291], that the damsel to whom I shall say[H559], Let down[H5186] thy pitcher[H3537], I pray thee[H8354], that I may drink; and she shall say[H559], Drink[H8354], and I will give[H8248] thy camels[H1581] drink[H8248] also[H3198]: let the same be she that thou hast appointed for thy servant[H5650] Isaac[H3327]; and thereby shall I know[H3045] that thou hast showed[H6213] kindness[H2617] unto my master[H113].

15. And it came to pass[H3615], before he had done speaking[H1696], that[H7259], behold, Rebekah came out[H3318], who[H834] was born[H3205] to Bethuel[H1328] the son[H1121] of Milcah[H4435], the wife[H802] of Nahor[H5152], Abraham[H85]'s brother[H251], with her pitcher[H3537] upon her shoulder[H7926].

16. And the damsel[H5291] was very[H3966] fair[H2896] to look upon[H4758], a virgin[H1330], neither had any man[H376] known[H3045] her[H3381]: and she went down to the fountain[H5869], and filled[H4390] her pitcher[H3537], and came up[H5927].

17. And the servant[H5650] ran[H7323] to meet her[H7125], and said[H559], Give me to drink[H1572], I pray thee[H4592], a little water[H4325] from thy pitcher[H3537].

18. And she said[H559], Drink[H8354], my lord[H113]: and she hasted[H4116], and let down[H3381] her pitcher[H3537] upon her hand[H3027], and gave him drink[H8248].

19. And when she had done[H3615] giving him drink[H8248], she said[H559], I will draw[H7579] for thy camels[H1581] also[H3615], until they have done drinking[H8354].

20. And she hasted[H4116], and emptied[H6168] her pitcher[H3537] into the trough[H8268], and ran[H7323] again unto the well[H875] to draw[H7579], and drew[H7579] for all his camels[H1581].

21. And the man[H376] looked stedfastly[H7583] on her[H2790], holding his peace, to know[H3045] whether Jehovah[H3068] had made[H6743] his journey[H1870] prosperous[H6743] or not[H518].

22. And it came to pass[H1581], as the camels had done[H3615] drinking[H8354], that the man[H376] took[H3947] a golden[H2091] ring[H5141] of half a shekel[H1235] weight[H4948], and two[H8147] bracelets[H6781] for her hands[H3027] of ten[H6235] shekels weight[H4948] of gold[H2091],

23. and said[H559], Whose[H4310] daughter[H1323] art thou[H859]? tell[H5046] me[H3426], I pray thee. Is there room[H4725] in thy father[H1]'s house[H1004] for us to lodge in[H3885]?

24. And she said[H559] unto him[H1323], I am the daughter of Bethuel[H1328] the son[H1121] of Milcah[H4435], whom she bare[H3205] unto Nahor[H5152].

25. She said[H559] moreover unto him[H1571], We have both straw[H8401] and provender[H4554] enough[H7227], and[H1571] room[H4725] to lodge in[H3885].

26. And the man[H376] bowed his head[H6915], and worshipped[H7812] Jehovah[H3068].

27. And he said[H559], Blessed[H1288] be Jehovah[H3068], the God[H430] of my master[H113] Abraham[H85], who hath not forsaken[H5800] his lovingkindness[H2617] and his truth[H571] toward my master[H113]: as for me[H3068], Jehovah hath led me[H5148] in the way[H1870] to the house[H1004] of my master[H113]'s brethren[H251].

28. And the damsel[H5291] ran[H7323], and told[H5046] her mother[H517]'s house[H1004] according to these words[H1697].

29. And Rebekah[H7259] had a brother[H251], and his name[H8034] was Laban[H3837]: and Laban[H3837] ran[H7323] out[H2351] unto the man[H376], unto the fountain[H5869].

30. And it came to pass[H7200], when he saw the ring[H5141], and the bracelets[H6781] upon his sister[H269]'s hands[H3027], and when he heard[H8085] the words[H1697] of Rebekah[H7259] his sister[H269], saying[H559], Thus[H3541] spake[H1696] the man[H376] unto me[H935]; that he came unto the man[H376]; and[H5975], behold, he was standing by[H5921] the camels[H1581] at the fountain[H5869].

31. And he said[H559], Come in[H935], thou blessed[H1288] of Jehovah[H3068]; wherefore standest[H5975] thou without[H2351]? for I have prepared[H6437] the house[H1004], and room[H4725] for the camels[H1581].

32. And the man[H376] came[H935] into the house[H1004], and he ungirded[H6605] the camels[H1581]; and he gave[H5414] straw[H8401] and provender[H4554] for the camels[H1581], and water[H4325] to wash[H7364] his feet[H7272] and the feet[H7272] of the men that were with him[H582].

33. And there was set[H7760] food before him[H6440] to eat[H398]: but he said[H559], I will not eat[H398], until I have told[H1696] mine errand[H1697]. And he said[H559], Speak on[H1696].

34. And he said[H559], I am Abraham[H85]'s servant[H5650].

35. And Jehovah[H3068] hath blessed[H1288] my master[H113] greatly[H3966]; and he is become great[H1431]: and he hath given[H5414] him flocks[H6629] and herds[H1241], and silver[H3701] and gold[H2091], and men-servants[H5650] and maid-servants[H8198], and camels[H1581] and asses[H2543].

36. And Sarah[H8283] my master[H113]'s wife[H802] bare[H3205] a son[H1121] to my master[H113] when[H310] she was old[H2209]: and unto him hath he given all that he hath[H5414].

37. And my master[H113] made me swear[H7650], saying[H559], Thou shalt not take[H3947] a wife[H802] for my son[H1121] of the daughters[H1323] of the Canaanites[H3669], in whose land[H776] I dwell[H3427]:

38. but[H518] thou shalt go[H3212] unto my father[H1]'s house[H1004], and to my kindred[H4940], and take[H3947] a wife[H802] for my son[H1121].

39. And I said[H559] unto my master[H113], Peradventure the woman[H802] will not follow me[H3212].

40. And he said[H559] unto me[H3068], Jehovah, before[H6440] whom I walk[H1980], will send[H7971] his angel[H4397] with thee[H6743], and prosper thy way[H1870]; and thou shalt take[H3947] a wife[H802] for my son[H1121] of my kindred[H4940], and of my father[H1]'s house[H1004]:

41. then shalt thou be clear[H5352] from my oath[H423], when thou comest[H935] to my kindred[H4940]; and if they give[H5414] her not to thee[H5355], thou shalt be clear from my oath[H423].

42. And I came[H935] this day[H3117] unto the fountain[H5869], and said[H559], O Jehovah[H3068], the God[H430] of my master[H113] Abraham[H85], if now thou do[H3426] prosper[H6743] my way[H1870] which I go[H1980]:

43. behold[H5324], I am standing by the fountain[H5869] of water[H4325]; and let it come to pass[H5959], that the maiden that cometh forth[H3318] to draw[H7579], to whom I shall say[H559], Give me[H8248], I pray thee[H4592], a little water[H4325] from thy pitcher[H3537] to drink[H8248];

44. and she shall say[H559] to me[H8354], Both drink thou[H7579], and I will also draw for thy camels[H1581]: let the same be the woman[H802] whom Jehovah[H3068] hath appointed[H3198] for my master[H113]'s son[H1121].

45. And before I had done[H3615] speaking[H1696] in my heart[H3820], behold[H7259], Rebekah came forth[H3318] with her pitcher[H3537] on her shoulder[H7926]; and she went down[H3381] unto the fountain[H5869], and drew[H7579]: and I said[H559] unto her[H8248], Let me drink, I pray thee.

46. And she made haste[H4116], and let down[H3381] her pitcher[H3537] from her shoulder[H559], and said, Drink[H8354], and I will give[H8248] thy camels[H1581] drink[H8248] also[H8354]: so I drank, and she made[H8248] the camels[H1581] drink also[H8248].

47. And I asked[H7592] her[H559], and said, Whose daughter[H1323] art thou[H559]? And she said, The daughter[H1323] of Bethuel[H1328], Nahor[H5152]'s son[H1121], whom Milcah[H4435] bare[H3205] unto him[H7760]: and I put the ring[H5141] upon her nose[H639], and the bracelets[H6781] upon her hands[H3027].

48. And I bowed my head[H6915], and worshipped[H7812] Jehovah[H3068], and blessed[H1288] Jehovah[H3068], the God[H430] of my master[H113] Abraham[H85], who had led me[H5148] in the right[H571] way[H1870] to take[H3947] my master[H113]'s brother[H251]'s daughter[H1323] for his son[H1121].

49. And now if ye will[H3426] deal[H6213] kindly[H2617] and truly[H571] with my master[H113], tell[H5046] me[H5046]: and if not, tell me[H6437]; that I may turn to the right hand[H3225], or[H176] to the left[H8040].

50. Then Laban[H3837] and Bethuel[H1328] answered[H6030] and said[H559], The thing[H1697] proceedeth[H3318] from Jehovah[H3068]: we cannot[H3201] speak[H1696] unto thee bad[H7451] or[H176] good[H2896].

51. Behold[H7259], Rebekah is before thee[H6440], take[H3947] her[H3212], and go, and let her be thy master[H113]'s son[H1121]'s wife[H802], as Jehovah[H3068] hath spoken[H1696].

52. And it came to pass[H85], that, when Abraham's servant[H5650] heard[H8085] their words[H1697], he bowed himself down[H7812] to the earth[H776] unto Jehovah[H3068].

53. And the servant[H5650] brought forth[H3318] jewels[H3627] of silver[H3701], and jewels[H3627] of gold[H2091], and raiment[H899], and gave[H5414] them to Rebekah[H7259]: he gave[H5414] also to her brother[H251] and to her mother[H517] precious things[H4030].

54. And they did eat[H398] and drink[H8354], he and the men[H582] that were with him[H3885], and tarried all night; and they rose up[H6965] in the morning[H1242], and he said[H559], Send me away[H7971] unto my master[H113].

55. And her brother[H251] and her mother[H517] said[H559], Let the damsel[H5291] abide[H3427] with us a few days[H3117], at the least[H176] ten[H6218]; after[H310] that she shall go[H3212].

56. And he said[H559] unto them[H309], Hinder me not[H3068], seeing Jehovah hath prospered[H6743] my way[H1870]; send me away[H7971] that I may go[H3212] to my master[H113].

57. And they said[H559], We will call[H7121] the damsel[H5291], and inquire[H7592] at her mouth[H6310].

58. And they called[H7121] Rebekah[H7259], and said[H559] unto her[H3212], Wilt thou go with this man[H376]? And she said[H559], I will go[H3212].

59. And they sent away[H7971] Rebekah[H7259] their sister[H269], and her nurse[H3243], and Abraham[H85]'s servant[H5650], and his men[H582].

60. And they blessed[H1288] Rebekah[H7259], and said[H559] unto her[H859], Our sister[H269], be thou[H1961] the mother of thousands[H505] of ten thousands[H7233], and let thy seed[H2233] possess[H3423] the gate[H8179] of those that hate them[H8130].

61. And Rebekah[H7259] arose[H6965], and her damsels[H5291], and they rode[H7392] upon the camels[H1581], and followed[H3212] the man[H376]: and the servant[H5650] took[H3947] Rebekah[H7259], and went his way[H3212].

62. And Isaac[H3327] came[H935] from the way[H935] of Beer-lahai[H883]-roi; for he dwelt[H3427] in the land[H776] of the South[H5045].

63. And Isaac[H3327] went out[H3318] to meditate[H7742] in[H6437] the field[H7704] at the eventide[H6153]: and he lifted up[H5375] his eyes[H5869], and saw[H7200], and[H1581], behold, there were camels coming[H935].

64. And Rebekah[H7259] lifted up[H5375] her eyes[H5869], and when she saw[H7200] Isaac[H3327], she alighted[H5307] from[H5921] the camel[H1581].

65. And she said[H559] unto the servant[H5650], What[H4310] man[H376] is this[H1976] that walketh[H1980] in the field[H7704] to meet us[H7125]? And the servant[H5650] said[H559], It is my master[H113]: and she took[H3947] her veil[H6809], and covered herself[H3680].

66. And the servant[H5650] told[H5608] Isaac[H3327] all the things[H1697] that he had done[H6213].

67. And Isaac[H3327] brought her[H935] into his mother[H517] Sarah[H8283]'s tent[H168], and took[H3947] Rebekah[H7259], and she became his wife[H802]; and he loved[H157] her[H3327]: and Isaac was comforted[H5162] after[H310] his mother[H517]'s death.
