^2 (A)Arise, go to ^(B)Padan Aram, to the house of ^(C)Bethuel your mother’s father; and take yourself a wife from there of the daughters of ^(D)Laban your mother’s brother.

²⁰ Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah as wife, ^(A)the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padan Aram, ^(B)the sister of Laban the Syrian.

¹⁵ These were the ^(A)sons of Leah, whom she bore to Jacob in Padan Aram, with his daughter Dinah. All the persons, his sons and his daughters, were thirty-three.

⁹ Then ^(A)God appeared to Jacob again, when he came from Padan Aram, and ^(B)blessed him.

¹⁰ I am not worthy of the least of all the ^(A)mercies and of all the truth which You have shown Your servant; for I crossed over this Jordan with ^(B)my staff, and now I have become two companies.

⁵ So Isaac sent Jacob away, and he went to Padan Aram, to Laban the son of Bethuel the Syrian, the brother of Rebekah, the mother of Jacob and Esau.

⁵⁰ Then Laban and Bethuel answered and said, ^(A)“The thing comes from the Lord; we cannot ^(B)speak to you either bad or good.

²⁹ Now Rebekah had a brother whose name was ^(A)Laban, and Laban ran out to the man by the well.

¹⁵ And it happened, ^(A)before he had finished speaking, that behold, ^(B)Rebekah,^[a] who was born to Bethuel, son of ^(C)Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham’s brother, came out with her pitcher on her shoulder. ¹⁶ Now the young woman ^(D)was very beautiful to behold, a virgin; no man had known her. And she went down to the well, filled her pitcher, and came up. ¹⁷ And the servant ran to meet her and said, “Please let me drink a little water from your pitcher.”

^18 (E)So she said, “Drink, my lord.” Then she quickly let her pitcher down to her hand, and gave him a drink. ¹⁹ And when she had finished giving him a drink, she said, “I will draw water for your camels also, until they have finished drinking.” ²⁰ Then she quickly emptied her pitcher into the trough, ran back to the well to draw water, and drew for all his camels. ²¹ And the man, wondering at her, remained silent so as to know whether ^(F)the Lord had made his journey prosperous or not.

²² So it was, when the camels had finished drinking, that the man took a golden ^(G)nose ring weighing half a shekel, and two bracelets for her wrists weighing ten shekels of gold, ²³ and said, “Whose daughter are you? Tell me, please, is there room in your father’s house for us ^[b]to lodge?”
