Chapter 24
And
Abraham
was
old,
and
well
stricken
in
age:
and
the
Lord
had
blessed
Abraham
in
all
things.
2
And
Abraham
said
unto
his
eldest
servant
of
his
house,
that
ruled
over
all
that
he
had,
Put,
I
pray
thee,
thy
hand
under
my
thigh:
3
And
I
will
make
thee
swear
by
the
Lord,
the
God
of
heaven,
and
the
God
of
the
earth,
that
thou
shalt
not
take
a
wife
unto
my
son
of
the
daughters
of
the
Canaanites,
among
whom
I
dwell:
4
But
thou
shalt
go
unto
my
country,
and
to
my
kindred,
and
take
a
wife
unto
my
son
Isaac.
5
And
the
servant
said
unto
him,
Peradventure
the
woman
will
not
be
willing
to
follow
me
unto
this
land:
must
I
needs
bring
thy
son
again
unto
the
land
from
whence
thou
camest?
6
And
Abraham
said
unto
him,
Beware
thou
that
thou
bring
not
my
son
thither
again.
7
The
Lord
God
of
heaven,
which
took
me
from
my
father’s
house,
and
from
the
land
of
my
kindred,
and
which
spake
unto
me,
and
that
sware
unto
me,
saying,
Unto
thy
seed
will
I
give
this
land;
he
shall
send
his
angel
before
thee,
and
thou
shalt
take
a
wife
unto
my
son
from
thence.
8
And
if
the
woman
will
not
be
willing
to
follow
thee,
then
thou
shalt
be
clear
from
this
my
oath:
only
bring
not
my
son
thither
again.
9
And
the
servant
put
his
hand
under
the
thigh
of
Abraham
his
master,
and
sware
to
him
concerning
that
matter.
10
And
the
servant
took
ten
camels
of
the
camels
of
his
master,
and
departed;
for
all
the
goods
of
his
master
were
in
his
hand:
and
he
arose,
and
went
to
Mesopotamia,
unto
the
city
of
Nahor.
11
And
he
made
his
camels
to
kneel
down
without
the
city
by
a
well
of
water
at
the
time
of
the
evening,
even
the
time
that
women
go
out
to
draw
water.
12
And
he
said,
O
Lord
God
of
my
master
Abraham,
I
pray
thee,
send
me
good
speed
this
day,
and
shew
kindness
unto
my
master
Abraham.
13
Behold,
I
stand
here
by
the
well
of
water;
and
the
daughters
of
the
men
of
the
city
come
out
to
draw
water:
14
And
let
it
come
to
pass,
that
the
damsel
to
whom
I
shall
say,
Let
down
thy
pitcher,
I
pray
thee,
that
I
may
drink;
and
she
shall
say,
Drink,
and
I
will
give
thy
camels
drink
also:
let
the
same
be
she
that
thou
hast
appointed
for
thy
servant
Isaac;
and
thereby
shall
I
know
that
thou
hast
shewed
kindness
unto
my
master.
15
And
it
came
to
pass,
before
he
had
done
speaking,
that,
behold,
Rebekah
came
out,
who
was
born
to
Bethuel,
son
of
Milcah,
the
wife
of
Nahor,
Abraham’s
brother,
with
her
pitcher
upon
her
shoulder.
16
And
the
damsel
was
very
fair
to
look
upon,
a
virgin,
neither
had
any
man
known
her:
and
she
went
down
to
the
well,
and
filled
her
pitcher,
and
came
up.
17
And
the
servant
ran
to
meet
her,
and
said,
Let
me,
I
pray
thee,
drink
a
little
water
of
thy
pitcher.
18
And
she
said,
Drink,
my
lord:
and
she
hasted,
and
let
down
her
pitcher
upon
her
hand,
and
gave
him
drink.
19
And
when
she
had
done
giving
him
drink,
she
said,
I
will
draw
water
for
thy
camels
also,
until
they
have
done
drinking.
20
And
she
hasted,
and
emptied
her
pitcher
into
the
trough,
and
ran
again
unto
the
well
to
draw
water,
and
drew
for
all
his
camels.
21
And
the
man
wondering
at
her
held
his
peace,
to
wit
whether
the
Lord
had
made
his
journey
prosperous
or
not.
22
And
it
came
to
pass,
as
the
camels
had
done
drinking,
that
the
man
took
a
golden
earring
of
half
a
shekel
weight,
and
two
bracelets
for
her
hands
of
ten
shekels
weight
of
gold;
23
And
said,
Whose
daughter
art
thou?
tell
me,
I
pray
thee:
is
there
room
in
thy
father’s
house
for
us
to
lodge
in?
24
And
she
said
unto
him,
I
am
the
daughter
of
Bethuel
the
son
of
Milcah,
which
she
bare
unto
Nahor.
25
She
said
moreover
unto
him,
We
have
both
straw
and
provender
enough,
and
room
to
lodge
in.
26
And
the
man
bowed
down
his
head,
and
worshipped
the
Lord.
27
And
he
said,
Blessed
be
the
Lord
God
of
my
master
Abraham,
who
hath
not
left
destitute
my
master
of
his
mercy
and
his
truth:
I
being
in
the
way,
the
Lord
led
me
to
the
house
of
my
master’s
brethren.
28
And
the
damsel
ran,
and
told
them
of
her
mother’s
house
these
things.
29
And
Rebekah
had
a
brother,
and
his
name
was
Laban:
and
Laban
ran
out
unto
the
man,
unto
the
well.
30
And
it
came
to
pass,
when
he
saw
the
earring
and
bracelets
upon
his
sister’s
hands,
and
when
he
heard
the
words
of
Rebekah
his
sister,
saying,
Thus
spake
the
man
unto
me;
that
he
came
unto
the
man;
and,
behold,
he
stood
by
the
camels
at
the
well.
31
And
he
said,
Come
in,
thou
blessed
of
the
Lord;
wherefore
standest
thou
without?
for
I
have
prepared
the
house,
and
room
for
the
camels.
32
And
the
man
came
into
the
house:
and
he
ungirded
his
camels,
and
gave
straw
and
provender
for
the
camels,
and
water
to
wash
his
feet,
and
the
men’s
feet
that
were
with
him.
33
And
there
was
set
meat
before
him
to
eat:
but
he
said,
I
will
not
eat,
until
I
have
told
mine
errand.
And
he
said,
Speak
on.
34
And
he
said,
I
am
Abraham’s
servant.
35
And
the
Lord
hath
blessed
my
master
greatly;
and
he
is
become
great:
and
he
hath
given
him
flocks,
and
herds,
and
silver,
and
gold,
and
menservants,
and
maidservants,
and
camels,
and
asses.
36
And
Sarah
my
master’s
wife
bare
a
son
to
my
master
when
she
was
old:
and
unto
him
hath
he
given
all
that
he
hath.
37
And
my
master
made
me
swear,
saying,
Thou
shalt
not
take
a
wife
to
my
son
of
the
daughters
of
the
Canaanites,
in
whose
land
I
dwell:
38
But
thou
shalt
go
unto
my
father’s
house,
and
to
my
kindred,
and
take
a
wife
unto
my
son.
39
And
I
said
unto
my
master,
Peradventure
the
woman
will
not
follow
me.
40
And
he
said
unto
me,
The
Lord,
before
whom
I
walk,
will
send
his
angel
with
thee,
and
prosper
thy
way;
and
thou
shalt
take
a
wife
for
my
son
of
my
kindred,
and
of
my
father’s
house:
41
Then
shalt
thou
be
clear
from
this
my
oath,
when
thou
comest
to
my
kindred;
and
if
they
give
not
thee
one,
thou
shalt
be
clear
from
my
oath.
42
And
I
came
this
day
unto
the
well,
and
said,
O
Lord
God
of
my
master
Abraham,
if
now
thou
do
prosper
my
way
which
I
go:
43
Behold,
I
stand
by
the
well
of
water;
and
it
shall
come
to
pass,
that
when
the
virgin
cometh
forth
to
draw
water,
and
I
say
to
her,
Give
me,
I
pray
thee,
a
little
water
of
thy
pitcher
to
drink;
44
And
she
say
to
me,
Both
drink
thou,
and
I
will
also
draw
for
thy
camels:
let
the
same
be
the
woman
whom
the
Lord
hath
appointed
out
for
my
master’s
son.
45
And
before
I
had
done
speaking
in
mine
heart,
behold,
Rebekah
came
forth
with
her
pitcher
on
her
shoulder;
and
she
went
down
unto
the
well,
and
drew
water:
and
I
said
unto
her,
Let
me
drink,
I
pray
thee.
46
And
she
made
haste,
and
let
down
her
pitcher
from
her
shoulder,
and
said,
Drink,
and
I
will
give
thy
camels
drink
also:
so
I
drank,
and
she
made
the
camels
drink
also.
47
And
I
asked
her,
and
said,
Whose
daughter
art
thou?
And
she
said,
The
daughter
of
Bethuel,
Nahor’s
son,
whom
Milcah
bare
unto
him:
and
I
put
the
earring
upon
her
face,
and
the
bracelets
upon
her
hands.
48
And
I
bowed
down
my
head,
and
worshipped
the
Lord,
and
blessed
the
Lord
God
of
my
master
Abraham,
which
had
led
me
in
the
right
way
to
take
my
master’s
brother’s
daughter
unto
his
son.
49
And
now
if
ye
will
deal
kindly
and
truly
with
my
master,
tell
me:
and
if
not,
tell
me;
that
I
may
turn
to
the
right
hand,
or
to
the
left.
50
Then
Laban
and
Bethuel
answered
and
said,
The
thing
proceedeth
from
the
Lord:
we
cannot
speak
unto
thee
bad
or
good.
51
Behold,
Rebekah
is
before
thee,
take
her,
and
go,
and
let
her
be
thy
master’s
son’s
wife,
as
the
Lord
hath
spoken.
52
And
it
came
to
pass,
that,
when
Abraham’s
servant
heard
their
words,
he
worshipped
the
Lord,
bowing
himself
to
the
earth.
53
And
the
servant
brought
forth
jewels
of
silver,
and
jewels
of
gold,
and
raiment,
and
gave
them
to
Rebekah:
he
gave
also
to
her
brother
and
to
her
mother
precious
things.
54
And
they
did
eat
and
drink,
he
and
the
men
that
were
with
him,
and
tarried
all
night;
and
they
rose
up
in
the
morning,
and
he
said,
Send
me
away
unto
my
master.
55
And
her
brother
and
her
mother
said,
Let
the
damsel
abide
with
us
a
few
days,
at
the
least
ten;
after
that
she
shall
go.
56
And
he
said
unto
them,
Hinder
me
not,
seeing
the
Lord
hath
prospered
my
way;
send
me
away
that
I
may
go
to
my
master.
57
And
they
said,
We
will
call
the
damsel,
and
inquire
at
her
mouth.
58
And
they
called
Rebekah,
and
said
unto
her,
Wilt
thou
go
with
this
man?
And
she
said,
I
will
go.
59
And
they
sent
away
Rebekah
their
sister,
and
her
nurse,
and
Abraham’s
servant,
and
his
men.
60
And
they
blessed
Rebekah,
and
said
unto
her,
Thou
art
our
sister,
be
thou
the
mother
of
thousands
of
millions,
and
let
thy
seed
possess
the
gate
of
those
which
hate
them.
61
And
Rebekah
arose,
and
her
damsels,
and
they
rode
upon
the
camels,
and
followed
the
man:
and
the
servant
took
Rebekah,
and
went
his
way.
62
And
Isaac
came
from
the
way
of
the
well
Lahai-roi;
for
he
dwelt
in
the
south
country.
63
And
Isaac
went
out
to
meditate
in
the
field
at
the
eventide:
and
he
lifted
up
his
eyes,
and
saw,
and,
behold,
the
camels
were
coming.
64
And
Rebekah
lifted
up
her
eyes,
and
when
she
saw
Isaac,
she
lighted
off
the
camel.
65
For
she
had
said
unto
the
servant,
What
man
is
this
that
walketh
in
the
field
to
meet
us?
And
the
servant
had
said,
It
is
my
master:
therefore
she
took
a
vail,
and
covered
herself.
66
And
the
servant
told
Isaac
all
things
that
he
had
done.
67
And
Isaac
brought
her
into
his
mother
Sarah’s
tent,
and
took
Rebekah,
and
she
became
his
wife;
and
he
loved
her:
and
Isaac
was
comforted
after
his
mother’s
death.
