Genesis 24:50-61

50Laban and Bethuel replied, ‘We know that the Lord has caused all this to happen. So what we ourselves say is not important.

51Here is Rebekah. Take her with you to become the wife of your master's son. That is what the Lord has shown to be right.’

52When Abraham's servant heard their answer, he turned his face towards the ground to thank the Lord.

53He brought his master's gifts to give them to Rebekah. They were valuable things made from gold and silver, as well as beautiful clothes. He also gave valuable things to her brother and to her mother.

54After that, the servant ate a meal. The men who were with him also ate and drank. They stayed there for the night. When they woke up the next morning, the servant said, ‘Let me leave now so that I can go back to my master.’

55Rebekah's brother and her mother replied, ‘Please let Rebekah stay with us for a few more days. After about ten days, she can go with you.’

56But the servant said, ‘Do not make me stay longer. The Lord has given me what I came here for. Let me leave now so that I can go back to my master.’

57Rebekah's brother and mother said, ‘Let us call the girl. We can ask her what she wants to do.’

58So they called Rebekah to come. They asked her, ‘Will you go with this man now?’ Rebekah said, ‘Yes, I will go.’

59So they agreed to let their sister Rebekah go. Her nurse went with her. They left there with Abraham's servant, and his men.

60As Rebekah was leaving, her brother and her mother blessed her. They said, ‘Our sister, may you become the mother of millions of descendants. May your descendants win against their enemies, and may they go into their enemies' cities.’

61Then Rebekah and her female servants left there, together with Abraham's servant. They took camels to ride on. That was how the servant took Rebekah and left.
