but will go to my country and my kindred to take a wife for my son Isaac."Read from NASB1995 · (Genesis) - Part 21

The servant asked him, "What if the woman is unwilling to follow me to this land? Shall I then take your son back to the land from which you came?"Read from NASB1995 · (Genesis) - Part 21
7
The LORD, the God of heaven, who brought me from my father's house and my native land, who spoke to me and promised me on oath, saying, 'To your offspring I will give this land'—He will send His angel before you so that you can take a wife for my son from there.Read from NASB1995 · (Genesis) - Part 21

So the servant placed his hand under the thigh of his master Abraham and swore an oath to him concerning this matter.Read from NASB1995 · (Genesis) - Part 21

Then the servant took ten of his master's camels and departed with all manner of good things from his master in hand. And he set out for Nahor's hometown in Aram-naharaim.Read from NASB1995 · (Genesis) - Part 21
11

As soon as he saw the ring, and the bracelets on his sister's wrists, and heard Rebekah's words, "The man said this to me," he went and found the man standing by the camels near the spring.Read from NASB1995 · (Genesis) - Part 21
31
"Come, you who are blessed by the LORD," said Laban. "Why are you standing out here? I have prepared the house and a place for the camels."Read from NASB1995 · (Genesis) - Part 21

50
Laban and Bethuel answered, "This is from the LORD; we have no choice in the matter.Read from NASB1995 · (Genesis) - Part 21
51
Rebekah is here before you. Take her and go, and let her become the wife of your master's son, just as the LORD has decreed."Read from ESV · (Genesis) - Part 21
