Genesis 24:52-67

Genesis 24:52-67 NCV

When Abraham’s servant heard these words, he bowed facedown on the ground before the LORD. Then he gave Rebekah gold and silver jewelry and clothes. He also gave expensive gifts to her brother and mother. The servant and the men with him ate and drank and spent the night there. When they got up the next morning, the servant said, “Now let me go back to my master.” Rebekah’s mother and her brother said, “Let Rebekah stay with us at least ten days. After that she may go.” But the servant said to them, “Do not make me wait, because the LORD has made my trip successful. Now let me go back to my master.” Rebekah’s brother and mother said, “We will call Rebekah and ask her what she wants to do.” They called her and asked her, “Do you want to go with this man now?” She said, “Yes, I do.” So they allowed Rebekah and her nurse to go with Abraham’s servant and his men. They blessed Rebekah and said, “Our sister, may you be the mother of thousands of people, and may your descendants capture the cities of their enemies.” Then Rebekah and her servant girls got on the camels and followed the servant and his men. So the servant took Rebekah and left. At this time Isaac had left Beer Lahai Roi and was living in southern Canaan. One evening when he went out to the field to think, he looked up and saw camels coming. Rebekah also looked and saw Isaac. Then she jumped down from the camel and asked the servant, “Who is that man walking in the field to meet us?” The servant answered, “That is my master.” So Rebekah covered her face with her veil. The servant told Isaac everything that had happened. Then Isaac brought Rebekah into the tent of Sarah, his mother, and she became his wife. Isaac loved her very much, and so he was comforted after his mother’s death.
