And the man was astonished at her, remaining silent, to know whether Jehovah had made his journey prosperous or not.

And the man stooped, and bowed down before Jehovah,

and said, Blessed be Jehovah, God of my master Abraham, who has not withdrawn his loving-kindness and his faithfulness from my master; I being in the way, Jehovah has led me to the house of my master's brethren.

And he said, Come in, blessed of Jehovah! why standest thou outside? for I have prepared the house, and room for the camels.

And Jehovah has blessed my master greatly, and he is become great; and he has given him sheep and cattle, and silver and gold, and bondmen and bondwomen, and camels and asses.

And he said to me, Jehovah, before whom I have walked, will send his angel with thee, and prosper thy way, that thou mayest take a wife for my son of my family, and out of my father's house.

And I came this day to the well, and said, Jehovah, God of my master Abraham, if now thou wilt prosper my way on which I go,

and she shall say to me, Both drink thou, and I will also draw for thy camels that she should be the woman whom Jehovah hath appointed for my master's son.

And I stooped, and bowed down before Jehovah; and I blessed Jehovah, God of my master Abraham, who has led me the right way to take my master's brother's daughter for his son.

And Laban and Bethuel answered and said, The thing proceeds from Jehovah: we cannot speak to thee bad or good.

Behold, Rebecca is before thee: take her, and go away; and let her be wife of thy master's son, as Jehovah has said.

And it came to pass, when Abraham's servant heard their words, that he bowed down to the earth before Jehovah.

And he said to them, Do not hinder me, seeing Jehovah has prospered my way: send me away, and I will go to my master.

And Isaac entreated Jehovah for his wife, because she was barren; and Jehovah was entreated of him, and Rebecca his wife conceived.

And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to inquire of Jehovah.

And Jehovah said to her, Two nations are in thy womb, And two peoples shall be separated from thy bowels; And one people shall be stronger than the other people, And the elder shall serve the younger.

And Jehovah appeared to him and said, Go not down to Egypt: dwell in the land that I shall tell thee of.

And Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year a hundredfold; and Jehovah blessed him.

And he removed thence and dug another well; and they did not strive for that. And he called the name of it Rehoboth, and said, For now Jehovah has made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.

And Jehovah appeared to him the same night, and said, I am the God of Abraham thy father: fear not, for I am with thee, and will bless thee, and multiply thy seed for my servant Abraham's sake.

And he built an altar there, and called upon the name of Jehovah. And he pitched his tent there; and there Isaac's servants dug a well.

And they said, We saw certainly that Jehovah is with thee; and we said, Let there be then an oath between us between us and thee, and let us make a covenant with thee,

that thou wilt do us no wrong, as we have not touched thee, and as we have done to thee nothing but good, and have let thee go in peace; thou art now blessed of Jehovah.

Bring me venison, and prepare me a savoury dish, that I may eat, and bless thee before Jehovah, before my death.

And Isaac said to his son, How is it that thou hast found it so quickly, my son? And he said, Because Jehovah thy God put it in my way.

And he came near, and kissed him. And he smelt the smell of his clothes, and blessed him, and said, See, the smell of my son is as the smell of a field which Jehovah hath blessed.

And behold, Jehovah stood above it. And he said, I am Jehovah, the God of Abraham, thy father, and the God of Isaac: the land on which thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed.

And Jacob awoke from his sleep, and said, Surely Jehovah is in this place, and I knew it not.

and I come again to my father's house in peace then shall Jehovah be my God.

And when Jehovah saw that Leah was hated, he opened her womb; but Rachel was barren.

And Leah conceived, and bore a son, and called his name Reuben; for she said, Because Jehovah has looked upon my affliction; for now my husband will love me.

And she again conceived, and bore a son, and said, Because Jehovah has heard that I am hated, he has therefore given me this one also; and she called his name Simeon.

And she again conceived, and bore a son, and said, This time will I praise Jehovah; therefore she called his name Judah. And she ceased to bear.

And she called his name Joseph; and said, Jehovah will add to me another son.

And Laban said to him, I pray thee, if I have found favour in thine eyes I have discovered that Jehovah has blessed me for thy sake.

For it was little that thou hadst before me, and it is increased to a multitude, and Jehovah has blessed thee from the time I came; and now, when shall I also provide for my house?

And Jehovah said to Jacob, Return into the land of thy fathers, and to thy kindred; and I will be with thee.

and Mizpah; for he said, Let Jehovah watch between me and thee, when we shall be hidden one from another:

And Jacob said, God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, Jehovah, who saidst unto me: Return into thy country and to thy kindred, and I will do thee good,

And Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of Jehovah, and Jehovah slew him.

And the thing which he did was evil in the sight of Jehovah, and he slew him also.

And Jehovah was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.

And his master saw that Jehovah was with him, and that Jehovah made all that he did to prosper in his hand.

And it came to pass from the time he had set him over his house and all that he had, that Jehovah blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of Jehovah was on all that he had in the house and in the field.

And Jehovah was with Joseph, and extended mercy to him, and gave him favour in the eyes of the chief of the tower-house.

The chief of the tower-house looked not to anything under his hand, because Jehovah was with him; and what he did, Jehovah made it prosper.

I wait for thy salvation, O Jehovah.
