Genesis 24:51-67 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

51. Behold, Rebecca is before thee: take her, and go away; and let her be wife of thy master's son, as Jehovah has said.

52. And it came to pass, when Abraham's servant heard their words, that he bowed down to the earth before Jehovah.

53. And the servant brought forth silver articles, and gold articles, and clothing, and he gave them to Rebecca; and he gave to her brother, and to her mother, precious things.

54. And they ate and drank, he and the men that were with him, and lodged. And they rose up in the morning; and he said, Send me away to my master.

55. And her brother and her mother said, Let the maiden abide with us some days, or say ten; after that she shall go.

56. And he said to them, Do not hinder me, seeing Jehovah has prospered my way: send me away, and I will go to my master.

57. And they said, Let us call the maiden and inquire at her mouth.

58. And they called Rebecca and said to her, Wilt thou go with this man? And she said, I will go.

59. And they sent away Rebecca their sister, and her nurse, and Abraham's servant, and his men.

60. And they blessed Rebecca, and said to her, Thou art our sister; mayest thou become thousands of tens of thousands; and may thy seed possess the gate of their enemies!

61. And Rebecca arose, and her maids, and they rode upon the camels, and followed the man. And the servant took Rebecca, and went away.

62. And Isaac had just returned from Beer-lahai-roi; for he was dwelling in the south country.

63. And Isaac had gone out to meditate in the fields toward the beginning of evening. And he lifted up his eyes and saw, and behold, camels were coming.

64. And Rebecca lifted up her eyes and saw Isaac, and she sprang off the camel.

65. And she had said to the servant, Who is the man that is walking in the fields to meet us? And the servant said, That is my master! Then she took the veil, and covered herself.

66. And the servant told Isaac all things that he had done.

67. And Isaac led her into his mother Sarah's tent; and he took Rebecca, and she became his wife, and he loved her. And Isaac was comforted after the death of his mother.
