Genesis 24:50-56 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

50. Then Laban and Bethuel answered, “We see that this is from the Lord, so there is nothing we can say to change it.

51. Here is Rebekah. Take her and go. Let her marry your master’s son. This is what the Lord wants.”

52. When Abraham’s servant heard this, he bowed to the ground before the Lord.

53. Then he gave Rebekah the gifts he brought. He gave her beautiful clothes and gold and silver jewelry. He also gave expensive gifts to her mother and brother.

54. Then he and his men had something to eat and drink, and they spent the night there. Early the next morning they got up and the servant said, “Now we must go back to my master.”

55. Rebekah’s mother and her brother said, “Let Rebekah stay with us for a short time. Let her stay with us ten days. After that she can go.”

56. But the servant said to them, “Don’t make me wait. The Lord has made my trip successful. Now let me go back to my master.”
