Genesis 24:29-33

29Now RebekahH7259 had a brotherH251 whose nameH8034 was 1LabanH3837; and LabanH3837 ranH7323 outsideH2351 to the manH376 at the springH5871.

30When he sawH7200 the ringH5141 and the braceletsH6781 on his sister’sH269 2wristsH3027, and when he heardH8085 the wordsH1697 of his sisterH269 RebekahH7259, sayingH559, “3ThisH3541 isH3541 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, “4ComeH935 inH935, 5blessedH1288 of the LordH3068! WhyH4100 do you standH5975 outsideH2351, since 6I have preparedH6437 the houseH1004, and a placeH4725 for the camelsH1581?”

32So the manH376 enteredH935 the houseH1004. Then 78Laban 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 statedH1696 my businessH1697.” And he saidH559, “SpeakH1696 on.”
