Genesis 24:50-61

Genesis 24:50-61 TPT

After hearing this, Laban and Bethuel said, “This was all planned by YAHWEH! If this is his plan, what can we say? Here stands our Rebekah before you. You may take her and go and let her marry your master’s son and fulfill YAHWEH’s plan for her.” When Abraham’s servant heard their words, he bowed his face down to the ground and worshiped YAHWEH. Then he brought expensive jewelry of silver and gold and exquisitely embroidered garments, and gave them all to Rebekah, and he gave costly gifts to her brother and her mother. Afterward, the servant and his men ate and drank, and they spent the night in Laban’s home. First thing in the morning, he said to them, “Allow me now to return to my master.” Her brother and mother replied, “Please let Rebekah remain with us a while—for ten days or so, then she may go with you.” He responded, “Please, YAHWEH has made my mission successful. Send me off with her to my master, don’t make me wait.” They answered him, “We will call for Rebekah and see what she wants to do.” So they called for Rebekah and asked her, “Will you go with this man?” “I will gladly go with him,” she answered. So they sent their sister Rebekah away with her servant girls to go with Abraham’s servant and his men. As she departed, they blessed her with these words: “Our dear sister, may you become thousands of ten thousands! May your descendants gain possession of the city gates of their foes!” Then Rebekah and her servant girls mounted the camels and followed the servant and his men.
