Genesis 24:23-33
23and saidH559, “WhoseH4310 daughterH1323 are you? PleaseH4994 tellH5046 me, is thereH3426 roomH4725 for us to lodgeH3885 in your father’sH1 houseH1004?” 24She saidH559 to him, “1I am the daughterH1323 of BethuelH1328, the sonH1121 of MilcahH4435, whomH834 she boreH3205 to NahorH5152.” 25Again she saidH559 to him, “We have plentyH7227 of bothH1571 strawH8401 and feedH4554, and roomH4725 to lodgeH3885 in.” 26Then the manH376 2bowedH6915 lowH6915 and worshipedH7812 the LordH3068. 27He saidH559, “3BlessedH1288 be the LordH3068, the GodH430 of my masterH113 AbrahamH85, whoH834 has not forsakenH5800 4His lovingkindnessH2617 and His truthH571 towardH4480H5973 my masterH113; as for me, 5the LordH3068 has guidedH5148 me in the wayH1870 to the houseH1004 of my master’sH113 brothersH251.”
28Then 6the girlH5291 ranH7323 and toldH5046 her mother’sH517 householdH1004 about theseH428 thingsH1697. 29Now RebekahH7259 had a brotherH251 whose nameH8034 was 7LabanH3837; and LabanH3837 ranH7323 outsideH2351 to the manH376 at the springH5871. 30When he sawH7200 the ringH5141 and the braceletsH6781 on his sister’sH269 8wristsH3027, and when he heardH8085 the wordsH1697 of RebekahH7259 his sisterH269, sayingH559, “9ThisH3541 is whatH3541 the manH376 saidH1696 to me,” he wentH935 to the manH376; and beholdH2009, he was standingH5975 by the camelsH1581 at the springH5871. 31And he saidH559, “10ComeH935 in, 11blessedH1288 of the LordH3068! WhyH4100 do you standH5975 outsideH2351 since 12I have preparedH6437 the houseH1004, and a placeH4725 for the camelsH1581?” 32So the manH376 enteredH935 the houseH1004. Then 1314Laban unloadedH6605 the camelsH1581, and he gaveH5414 strawH8401 and feedH4554 to the camelsH1581, and waterH4325 to washH7364 his feetH7272 and the feetH7272 of the menH376 whoH834 were with him. 33But when food was setH7760 beforeH6440 him to eatH398, he saidH559, “I will not eatH398 untilH5704H518 I have toldH1696 my businessH1697.” And he saidH559, “SpeakH1696 on.”
