For the Lord had kept all the women of the house of Abimelech from having children, because of Sarah, Abraham's wife.

Bethuel was the father of Rebekah: these eight were the children of Milcah and Nahor, Abraham's brother.

And the servant put his hand under Abraham's leg, and gave him his oath about this thing.

And even before his words were ended, Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel, the son of Milcah, who was the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, came out with her water-vessel on her arm.

And he said, I am Abraham's servant.

And at these words, Abraham's servant went down on his face and gave praise to the Lord.

So they sent their sister Rebekah and her servant with Abraham's servant and his men.

Now the years of Abraham's life were a hundred and seventy-five.

Now these are the generations of Abraham's son Isaac:

So Esau went to Ishmael and took Mahalath, the daughter of Abraham's son Ishmael, the sister of Nebaioth, to be his wife in addition to the wives he had.

And the Lord went on his way when his talk with Abraham was ended, and Abraham went back to his place.

Now after these things, God put Abraham to the test, and said to him, Abraham; and he said, Here am I.

But the voice of the angel of the Lord came from heaven, saying, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I.

And lifting up his eyes, Abraham saw a sheep fixed by its horns in the brushwood: and Abraham took the sheep and made a burned offering of it in place of his son.

Then Abraham went back to his young men and they went together to Beer-sheba, the place where Abraham was living.

And he said, O Lord, the God of my master Abraham, let me do well in what I have undertaken this day, and give your mercy to my master Abraham.

The same field which Abraham got from the children of Heth: there Abraham was put to rest with Sarah, his wife.

That night the Lord came to him in a vision, and said, I am the God of your father Abraham: have no fear for I am with you, blessing you, and your seed will be increased because of my servant Abraham.

And may God give you the blessing of Abraham, to you and to your seed, so that the land of your wanderings, which God gave to Abraham, may be your heritage.

And Abraham said to God, If only Ishmael's life might be your care!

But Abraham made a protest to Abimelech because of a water-hole which Abimelech's servants had taken by force.

And Abraham put the wood for the burned offering on his son's back, and he himself took the fire and the knife in his hand, and the two of them went on together.

And Sarah's death took place in Kiriath-arba, that is, Hebron, in the land of Canaan: and Abraham went into his house, weeping and sorrowing for Sarah.

And said, Praise be to the Lord, the God of my master Abraham, who has given a sign that he is good and true to my master, by guiding me straight to the house of my master's family.

And with bent head I gave worship and praise to the Lord, the God of my master Abraham, by whom I had been guided in the right way, to get the daughter of my master's brother for his son.

Now all the water-holes, which his father's servants had made in the days of Abraham, had been stopped up with earth by the Philistines.
