1 و َشاخَ إبْراهِيمُ، وَتَقَدَّمَ بِهِ العُمرُ. وَبارَكَهُ اللهُ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ.

Now Abraham was old, well advanced in years, and the Lord had blessed Abraham in all things.

2 و َقالَ إبْراهِيمُ لِكَبيرِ خَدَمِ بَيتِهِ، المُشرِفِ عَلَى كُلِّ أملاكِهِ: «ضَعْ يَدَكَ تَحْتَ فَخْذِي.

And Abraham said to the eldest servant of his house, who ruled over all that he had, I beg of you, put your hand under my thigh;

3 ا حلِفْ لِي بِإلَهِ السَّماءِ وَالأرْضِ، أنَّكَ لَنْ تَأْخُذَ لابْنِي زَوْجَةً مِنْ بَناتِ الكَنْعانِيِّينَ الَّذِينَ أسْكُنُ بَينَهُمْ.

And you shall swear by the Lord, the God of heaven and earth, that you will not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I have settled,

4 ع ِدْنِي بِأنَّكَ سَتَذْهَبُ إلَى أرْضِي وَأقرِبائِي، وَأنَّكَ سَتَأْخُذُ مِنْ هُناكَ زَوْجَةً لابْنِي إسْحاقَ.»

But you shall go to my country and to my relatives and take a wife for my son Isaac.

5 ف َقالَ لَهُ الخادِمُ: «فَماذا إذا لَمْ تَرْضَ المَرْأةُ بِأنْ تَأْتِيَ مَعِي إلَى هَذِهِ الأرْضِ؟ فَهَلْ آخُذُ ابْنَكَ إلَى الأرْضِ الَّتِي تَرَكْتَها؟»

The servant said to him, But perhaps the woman will not be willing to come along after me to this country. Must I take your son to the country from which you came?

6 ف َقالَ لَهُ إبْراهِيمُ: «إيّاكَ أنْ تُعِيدَ ابْنِي إلَى هُناكَ.

Abraham said to him, See to it that you do not take my son back there.

7 ف َإلَهُ السَّماءِ، أخرَجَنِي مِنْ بَيتِ أبِي وَأرْضِ أقْرِبائِي. وَقَدْ كَلَّمَنِي وَقَطَعَ لِي عَهْداً فَقالَ: ‹سَأُعطِي هَذِهِ الأرْضَ لِنَسلِكَ.› وَهُوَ الَّذِي سَيُرْسِلُ مَلاكَهُ أمامَكَ لِيُعِينَكَ عَلَى أنْ تَأْخُذَ زَوْجَةً لابْنِي مِنْ هُناكَ.

The Lord, the God of heaven, Who took me from my father’s house, from the land of my family and my birth, Who spoke to me and swore to me, saying, To your offspring I will give this land—He will send His Angel before you, and you will take a wife from there for my son.

8 أ مّا إذا لَمْ تَرْضَ المَرأةُ بِأنْ تَأْتِيَ مَعَكَ، فَأنْتَ فِي حِلٍّ مِنْ وَعْدِكَ هَذا لِي. لَكِنْ إيّاكَ أنْ تُعِيدَ ابْنِيَ إلَى هُناكَ.»

And if the woman should not be willing to go along after you, then you will be clear from this oath; only you must not take my son back there.

9 ف َوَضَعَ الخادِمُ يَدَهُ تَحْتَ فَخذِ إبْراهِيمَ وَحَلَفَ لَهُ فِي هَذا الأمْرِ.

So the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master and swore to him concerning this matter.

10 ث ُمَّ أخَذَ الخادِمُ عَشْرَةً مِنْ جِمالِ سَيِّدِهِ، وَغادَرَ المَكانَ مُحَمَّلاً بِكُلِّ أنواعِ الهَدايا مِنْ سَيِّدِهِ. ثُمَّ سارَ إلَى أراضِي ما بَينَ النَّهْرَينِ، إلَى مَدِينَةِ ناحُورَ.

And the servant took ten of his master’s camels and departed, taking some of all his master’s treasures with him; thus he journeyed to Mesopotamia, to the city of Nahor.

11 و َأناخَ الجِمالَ خارِجَ المَدِينَةِ عِنْدَ النَّبْعِ. وَكانَ الوَقْتُ مَساءً عِنْدَما خَرَجَتِ النِّساءُ لِيَسْتَقِينَ ماءً.

And he made his camels to kneel down outside the city by a well of water at the time of the evening when women go out to draw water.

12 ف َقالَ الخادِمُ: «يا إلَهَ سَيِّدِي إبْراهِيمَ، وَفِّقْنِي اليَوْمَ فِي مَسْعايَ. وَأَظْهِرْ لُطْفَكَ لِسَيِّدِي إبْراهِيمَ.

And he said, O Lord, God of my master Abraham, I pray You, cause me to meet with good success today, and show kindness to my master Abraham.

13 ه ا أنا واقِفٌ عِنْدَ عَينِ الماءِ. وَها فَتَياتُ أهلِ البَلدَةِ خارِجاتٌ لِيَسْتَقِينَ ماءً.

See, I stand here by the well of water, and the daughters of the men of the city are coming to draw water.

14 ف َأعطِنِي هَذِهِ العَلامَةَ: إنْ قُلْتُ لِفَتاةٍ: ‹هاتِ جَرَّتَكِ لِأشْرَبَ،› فَأجابَتْ: ‹اشْرَبْ، وَسَأسْقِي جِمالَكَ أيضاً!› أعلَمُ أنَّها هِيَ الَّتِي اختَرْتَها أنتَ زَوْجَةً لِخادِمِكَ إسْحاقَ. وَبِهَذا أعرِفُ أنَّكَ أظهَرْتَ لُطفَكَ لِسَيِّدِي.» رِفْقَةُ ابْنةُ بَتُوئِيل

And let it so be that the girl to whom I say, I pray you, let down your jar that I may drink, and she replies, Drink, and I will give your camels drink also—let her be the one whom You have selected and appointed and indicated for Your servant Isaac; and by it I shall know that You have shown kindness and faithfulness to my master.

15 و َقَبلَ أنْ يُنهِيَ الخادِمُ صَلاتَهُ، إذا بِرِفْقَةَ تُقبِلُ وَجَرَّتُها عَلَى كَتِفِها. وَهِيَ ابْنَةُ بَتُوئِيلَ ابْنِ مِلْكَةَ، زَوْجَةِ ناحُورَ، أخِي إبْراهِيمَ.

Before he had finished speaking, behold, out came Rebekah, who was the daughter of Bethuel son of Milcah, who was the wife of Nahor the brother of Abraham, with her water jar on her shoulder.

16 ك انَتْ رِفْقَةُ جَمِيلَةً جِدّاً، وَعَذْراءَ لَمْ يَمَسَّها رَجُلٌ. فَنَزَلَتْ إلَى النَّبْعِ وَمَلأتْ جَرَّتَها، ثُمَّ صَعِدَتْ ثانِيَةً.

And the girl was very beautiful and attractive, chaste and modest, and unmarried. And she went down to the well, filled her water jar, and came up.

17 ف َرَكَضَ الخادِمُ لِمُلاقاتِها وَقالَ لَها: «اسْقِينِي قَلِيلاً مِنَ الماءِ مِنْ جَرَّتِكِ.»

And the servant ran to meet her, and said, I pray you, let me drink a little water from your water jar.

18 ف َقالَتْ رِفْقَةُ: «اشْرَبْ يا سَيِّدِي.» وَأسْرَعَتْ فَأنزَلَتِ الجَرَّةَ عَنْ يَدِها وَسَقَتْهُ.

And she said, Drink, my lord; and she quickly let down her jar onto her hand and gave him a drink.

19 و َبَعدَ أنْ سَقَتْهُ قالَتْ: «سأسْتَقِي لِجِمالِكَ أيضاً حَتَّى تَرْتَوَيَ جَمِيعاً.»

When she had given him a drink, she said, I will draw water for your camels also, until they finish drinking.

20 و َأسْرَعَتْ رِفْقَةُ فَأفْرَغَتْ جَرَّتَها فِي الحَوْضِ. وَرَكَضَتْ ثانِيَةً إلَى النَّبْعِ وَاسْتَقَتِ المَزِيدَ مِنَ الماءِ. فَأحضَرَتْ ماءً لِكُلِّ جِمالِهِ.

So she quickly emptied her jar into the trough and ran again to the well and drew water for all his camels.

21 و َكانَ الرَّجُلُ يُراقِبُها بِصَمْتٍ لِيَعْرِفَ إنْ كانَ اللهُ قَدْ أنجَحَ مَسْعاهُ أمْ لا.

The man stood gazing at her in silence, waiting to know if the Lord had made his trip prosperous.

22 ف َبَعْدَ أنْ شَرِبَتِ الجِمالُ، أخرَجَ الرَّجُلُ حَلَقاً مِنَ الذَّهَبِ لِأنْفِها يَزِنُ نِصْفَ مِثْقالٍ، وَسِوارَينِ مِنَ الذَّهَبِ لِيَدَيها يَزِنانِ عَشْرَةَ مَثاقِيلَ.

And when the camels had finished drinking, the man took a gold earring or nose ring of half a shekel in weight, and for her hands two bracelets of ten shekels in weight in gold,

23 و َقالَ لَها: «أرجُو أنْ تُخبِرِينِي ابْنَةَ مَنْ تَكُونِينَ. وَهَلْ لَنا مُتَّسَعٌ فِي بَيتِ أبِيكِ لِلمَبِيتِ؟»

And said, Whose daughter are you? I pray you, tell me: Is there room in your father’s house for us to lodge there?

24 ف َقالَتْ لَهُ رِفْقَةُ: «أنا ابْنَةُ بَتُوئِيلَ بْنِ مِلْكَةَ وَناحُورَ.»

And she said to him, I am the daughter of Bethuel son of Milcah and Nahor.

25 ث ُمَّ قالَتْ: «لَدَينا تِبْنٌ وَعَلَفٌ كَثِيرٌ، وَيُوجَدُ لَكُمْ مُتَّسَعٌ لِلمَبِيتِ.»

She said also to him, We have both straw and provender (fodder) enough, and also room in which to lodge.

26 ث ُمَّ حَنَى الرَّجُلُ رَأْسَهُ وَحَمَدَ اللهَ.

The man bowed down his head and worshiped the Lord

27 ق الَ: «تَبارَكَ إلَهُ سَيِّدِي إبْراهِيمَ. إذْ أظهَرَ وَفاءَهُ وَإخلاصَهُ لِسَيِّدِي. فَقَدْ قادَنِي اللهُ فِي طَرِيقِي إلَى بَيتِ أقارِبِ سَيِّدِي.»

And said, Blessed be the Lord, the God of my master Abraham, Who has not left my master bereft and destitute of His loving-kindness and steadfastness. As for me, going on the way the Lord led me to the house of my master’s kinsmen.

28 ف َرَكَضَتِ الفَتاةُ وَأخبَرَتْ بَيتَ أُمِّها بِهَذِهِ الأُمُورِ.

The girl related to her mother’s household what had happened.

29 و َكانَ لِرِفْقَةَ أخٌ اسْمُهُ لابانُ. فَخَرَجَ لابانُ إلَى النَّبْعِ بِاتِّجاهِ الرَّجُلِ.

Now Rebekah had a brother whose name was Laban, and Laban ran out to the man at the well.

30 ف َرَأى الحَلَقَ، وَرَأى السِّوارَينِ حَولَ مِعصَمَيِّ أُختِهِ. فَلَّما رَوَتْ لَهُ أُختُهُ رِفْقَةُ ما قالَهُ لَها الرَّجُلُ، جَاءَ لابانُ إلَى الرَّجُلِ حَيثُ كانَ واقِفاً مَعَ الجِمالِ عِنْدَ النَّبْعِ.

For when he saw the earring or nose ring, and the bracelets on his sister’s arms, and when he heard Rebekah his sister saying, The man said this to me, he went to the man and found him standing by the camels at the well.

31 ف َقالَ لَهُ: «ادخُلْ إلَى بَيتِنا يا مَنْ بارَكَكَ اللهُ. لِماذا تَقِفُ خارِجاً؟ هَا البَيتُ مُعَدٌّ لاسْتِقبالِكَ، وَسَنُعِدُّ مَكاناً لِلجِمالِ.»

He cried, Come in, you blessed of the Lord! Why do you stand outside? For I have made the house ready and have prepared a place for the camels.

32 ث ُمَّ أنزَلَ لابانُ حُمُولَةَ الجِمالِ وَقَدَّمَ لَها تِبْناً وَعَلَفاً. وَأعطَى ماءً لِلرَّجُلِ وَلِلرِّجالِ الَّذِينَ مَعَهُ لِيَغسِلُوا أقْدامَهُمْ.

So the man came into the house; and ungirded his camels and gave straw and provender for the camels and water to bathe his feet and the feet of the men who were with him.

33 ث ُمَّ وُضِعَ الطَّعامُ أمامَ خادِمِ إبْراهِيمَ لِيَأْكُلَ. لَكِنَّهُ قالَ: «لَنْ آكُلَ قَبلَ أنْ أقُولَ ما لَدَيَّ.» فَقالَ لَهُ لابانُ: «فَقُلْ ما عِنْدَكَ.» الخادمُ يخطبُ رِفْقَةَ لإسْحاق

A meal was set before him, but he said, I will not eat until I have told of my errand. And said, Speak on.

34 ف َقالَ: «أنا خادِمُ إبْراهِيمَ.

And he said, I am Abraham’s servant.

35 و َقَدْ بارَكَ اللهُ سَيِّدِي كَثِيراً فَصارَ غَنِيّاً جِدّاً. إذْ أعطاهُ اللهُ غَنَماً وَبَقَراً وَفِضَّةً وَذَهَباً وَخَدَماً وَخادِماتٍ وَجِمالاً وَحَمِيراً.

And the Lord has blessed my master mightily, and he has become great; and He has given him flocks, herds, silver, gold, menservants, maidservants, camels, and asses.

36 و َأنجَبَتْ سارَةُ، زَوْجَةُ سَيِّدِي، لَهُ ابْناً فِي شَيخُوخَتِهِ. وَأعطَى إبْراهِيمُ ابْنَهُ كُلَّ ما يَملِكُ.

And Sarah my master’s wife bore a son to my master when she was old, and to him he has given all that he has.

37 و َقَدِ اسْتَحلَفَنِي سَيِّدِي فَقالَ: ‹لا تَأْخُذْ لابْنِي زَوْجَةً مِنْ بَناتِ الكَنْعانِيِّينَ الَّذِينَ أسْكُنُ بَينَهُمْ.

And my master made me swear, saying, You must not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I dwell,

38 ب َلِ اذْهَبْ إلَى بَيتِ أبِي وَأقارِبِي، وَخُذْ مِنْ هُناكَ زَوْجَةً لابْنِي.›

But you shall go to my father’s house and to my family and take a wife for my son.

39 ف َقُلْتُ لِسَيِّدِي: ‹رُبَّما تَرفُضُ الفَتاةُ أنْ تَأْتِيَ مَعِي.›

And I said to my master, But suppose the woman will not follow me.

40 ف َقالَ لِي: ‹لَقَدْ عِشْتُ فِي حَضْرَةِ اللهِ ، وَأنا أعرِفُ أنَّهُ سَيُرْسِلُ مَلاكَهُ مَعَكَ، وَسَيُوَفِّقُكَ فِي رِحلَتِكَ. وَسَتَأْخُذُ زَوْجَةً لابْنِي مِنْ بَناتِ أقارِبِي وَبَيتِ أبِي.

And he said to me, The Lord, in Whose presence I walk, will send His Angel with you and prosper your way, and you will take a wife for my son from my kindred and from my father’s house.

41 و َعِنْدَما تَذْهَبُ إلَى أقارِبِي تَكُونُ حُرّاً مِنْ هَذا القَسَمِ. سَتَكُونُ حُرّاً مِنْهُ حَتَّى لَوْ لَمْ يُعْطُوكَ زَوْجَةً لابْنِي.›

Then you shall be clear from my oath, when you come to my kindred; and if they do not give her to you, you shall be free and innocent of my oath.

42 « وَعِنْدَما جِئْتُ إلَى النَّبْعِ اليَوْمَ قُلْتُ: ‹يا إلَهَ سَيِّدِي إبْراهِيمَ، أنجِحْ رِحلَتِي وَمَسْعايَ.

I came today to the well and said, O Lord, God of my master Abraham, if You are now causing me to go on my way prosperously—

43 ه ا أنا واقِفٌ عِنْدَ النَّبْعِ. فَأعطِنِي عَلامَةً. إنْ قُلْتُ لِفَتاةٍ تَأْتِي لِتَسْتَقِي: أعطِنِي قَلِيلاً مِنَ الماءِ مِنْ جَرَّتِكِ لِأشْرَبَ،

See, I am standing by the well of water; now let it be that when the maiden comes out to draw water and I say to her, I pray you, give me a little water from your jar to drink,

44 ف َأجابَتْ: اشْرَبْ، وَسَأسْتَقِي ماءً لِجِمالِكَ أيضاً. لِتَكُنْ هِيَ الفَتاةَ الَّتِي اختارَها اللهُ لابْنِ سَيِّدِي.›

And if she says to me, You drink, and I will draw water for your camels also, let that same woman be the one whom the Lord has selected and indicated for my master’s son.

45 « وَقَبلَ أنْ أُنهِيَ صَلاتِيَ فِي قَلبِي، أتَتْ رِفْقَةُ وَجَرَّتُها عَلَى كَتِفِها. فَنَزَلَتْ إلَى النَّبْعِ وَاسْتَقَتْ ماءً. فَقُلْتُ لَها: ‹اسْقِينِي مِنْ فَضلِكِ.›

And before I had finished praying in my heart, behold, Rebekah came out with her jar on her shoulder, and she went down to the well and drew water. And I said to her, I pray you, let me have a drink.

46 ف َأسْرَعَتْ وَأنزَلَتِ الجَرَّةَ عَنْ كَتِفِها وَقالَتْ: ‹اشْرَبْ، وَسَأسْتَقِي ماءً لِجِمالِكَ أيضاً.› فَشَرِبْتُ، وَسَقَتِ الجِمالَ أيضاً.

And she quickly let down her jar from her shoulder and said, Drink, and I will water your camels also. So I drank, and she gave the camels drink also.

47 ث ُمَّ سَألْتُها: ‹ابْنَةُ مَنْ تَكُونِينَ؟› فَقالَتْ: ‹أنا ابْنَةُ بَتُوئِيلَ بْنِ ناحُورَ وَمِلْكَةَ.› فَوَضَعْتُ حَلَقاً فِي أنفِها، وَسِوارَينِ حَولَ مِعْصَمَيها.

I asked her, Whose daughter are you? She said, The daughter of Bethuel, Nahor’s son, whom Milcah bore to him. And I put the earring or nose ring on her face and the bracelets on her arms.

48 ث ُمَّ حَنَيتُ رَأْسِي وَشَكَرْتُ اللهَ، وَبارَكْتُ إلَهَ سَيِّدِي إبْراهِيمَ. فَقَدْ هَدانِي فِي طَرِيقٍ صَحِيحٍ لِآخُذَ ابْنَةَ أخِي سَيِّدِي إبْراهِيمَ زَوْجَةً لابْنِهِ.

And I bowed down my head and worshiped the Lord and blessed the Lord, the God of my master Abraham, Who had led me in the right way to take my master’s brother’s daughter to his son.

49 و َالآنَ، إنْ كُنْتُمْ سَتَتَعامَلُونَ بِالإخلاصِ وَالوَفاءِ مَعَ سَيِّدِي، فَأخبِرُونِي. وَإلّا، فَأخبِرُونِي أيضاً، فَأعرِفَ ماذا أفْعَلُ.»

And now if you will deal kindly and truly with my master, tell me; and if not, tell me, that I may turn to the right or to the left.

50 ف َأجابَ لابانُ وَبَتُوئِيلُ: «هَذا الأمْرُ مِنْ عِنْدِ اللهِ ، فَلَيْسَ لَنا أنْ نُغَيِّرَ ذَلِكَ.

Then Laban and Bethuel answered, The thing comes forth from the Lord; we cannot speak bad or good to you.

51 ه ا هِيَ رِفْقَةُ، فَخُذْها زَوْجَةً لابْنِ سَيِّدِكَ كَما قَضَى اللهُ.»

Rebekah is before you; take her and go, and let her be the wife of your master’s son, as the Lord has said.

52 ف َلَمّا سَمِعَ خادِمُ إبْراهِيمَ كَلامَهُما، سَجَدَ للهِ عَلَى الأرْضِ.

And when Abraham’s servant heard their words, he bowed himself to the ground before the Lord.

53 ث ُمَّ أخرَجَ الخادِمُ كُلَّ الفِضَّةِ وَالذَّهَبِ وَالثِّيابِ، وَأعطاها لِرِفْقَةَ. كَما قَدَّمَ هَدايا ثَمِينَةً لِأخِيها وَأُمِّها.

And the servant brought out jewels of silver, jewels of gold, and garments and gave them to Rebekah; he also gave precious things to her brother and her mother.

54 ف َأكَلَ وَشَرِبَ مَعَ الَّذِينَ مَعَهُ، وَباتُوا هُناكَ. وَلَمّا نَهَضُوا فِي الصَّباحِ قالَ الخادِمُ: «اسمَحُوا لِي بِالذَّهابِ إلَى سَيِّدِي.»

Then they ate and drank, he and the men who were with him, and stayed there all night. And in the morning they arose, and he said. Send me away to my master.

55 ل َكِنَّ أخا رِفْقَةَ وَأُمَّها قالا: «لِتَبْقَ الفَتاةُ مَعَنا عَشْرَةَ أيّامٍ عَلَى الأقَلِّ، وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ تَذْهَبُ.»

But brother and mother said, Let the girl stay with us a few days—at least ten; then she may go.

56 ل َكِنَّ الخادِمَ قالَ: «لا تُؤَخِّرانِي، فَقَدْ وَفَّقَ اللهُ رِحلَتِي وَمَسْعايَ. أطلِقُونِي فَأعُودَ إلَى سَيِّدِي.»

But said to them, Do not hinder and delay me, seeing that the Lord has caused me to go prosperously on my way. Send me away, that I may go to my master.

57 ف َقالوا: «نَدعُو الفَتاةَ وَنَسألُها أمامَكَ.»

And they said, We will call the girl and ask her her desire.

58 ف َدَعَوْا رِفْقَةَ وَسَألاها: «هَلْ تُرِيدِينَ الذَّهابَ مَعَ الرَّجُلِ الآنَ؟» فَقالَتْ رِفْقَةُ: «نَعَمْ.»

So they called Rebekah and said to her, Will you go with this man? And she said, I will go.

59 ف َصَرَفا رِفْقَةَ وَمُرَبِّيَتَها مَعَ خادِمِ إبْراهِيمَ وَرِجالِهِ.

So they sent away Rebekah their sister and her nurse and Abraham’s servant and his men.

60 و َبارَكُوا أُختَهُمْ رِفْقَةَ وَقالُوا: «لَيتَكِ تَصِيرِينَ، يا أُختَنا، أُمّاً لِمَلايِينَ مِنَ النّاسِ. وَلَيتَ أحفادَكِ يَسْتَولُونَ عَلَى مُدُنِ أعدائِهِمْ.»

And they blessed Rebekah and said to her, You are our sister; may you become the mother of thousands of ten thousands, and let your posterity possess the gate of their enemies.

61 ف َقامَتْ رِفْقَةُ وَخادِمَتُها وَرَكِبْنَ عَلَى الجِمالِ، وَتَبِعْنَ الرَّجُلَ. وَهَكَذا أخَذَ الخادِمُ رِفْقَةَ وَمَضَى فِي طَرِيقِهِ.

And Rebekah and her maids arose and followed the man upon their camels. Thus the servant took Rebekah and went on his way.

62 و َكانَ إسْحاقُ قَدْ تَرَكَ مُخَيَّمَهُ قُرْبَ مَدْخَلِ بِئْرِ لَحْيَ رُئِي وَسَكَنَ فِي النَّقَبِ.

Now Isaac had returned from going to the well Beer-lahai-roi, for he dwelt in the South country (the Negeb).

63 ف َخَرَجَ لِيَتَفَكَّرَ قَبلَ المَساءِ فِي الحَقلِ. وَرَفَعَ نَظَرَهُ، فَإذا بِهِ يَرَى جِمالاً قادِمَةً.

And Isaac went out to meditate and bow down in the open country in the evening; and he looked up and saw that, behold, the camels were coming.

64 و َرَفَعَتْ رِفقَةُ نَظَرَها فَرَأتْ إسْحاقَ. فَتَرَجَّلَتْ عَنِ الجَمَلِ.

And Rebekah looked up, and when she saw Isaac, she dismounted from the camel.

65 ث ُمَّ سَألَتِ الخادِمَ: «مَنْ هُوَ هَذا الرَّجُلُ الماشِي فِي الحَقلِ لِمُلاقاتِنا؟» فَقالَ الخادِمُ: «إنَّهُ سَيِّدِي!» فَأخَذَتْ رِفقَةُ الخِمارَ وَغَطَّتْ وَجهَها.

For she said to the servant, Who is that man walking across the field to meet us? And the servant said, He is my master. So she took a veil and concealed herself with it.

66 ث ُمَّ رَوَى الخادِمُ لإسْحاقَ كُلَّ ما فَعَلَهُ.

And the servant told Isaac everything that he had done.

67 و َبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أدخَلَ إسْحاقُ رِفْقَةَ إلَى خَيمَةِ أُمِّهِ سارَةَ لِيَتَزَوَّجَها. وَأحَبَّها كَثِيراً. فَتَعَزَّى إسْحاقُ بَعْدَ مَوْتِ أُمِّهِ.

And Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah’s tent, and he took Rebekah and she became his wife, and he loved her; thus Isaac was comforted after his mother’s death.
