1In pacl se inge Abraham el arulana matuoh, tuh LEUM GOD El akinsewowoyal in ma nukewa el oru.
1And Abraham was old, well stricken in age; and the LORD had blessed Abraham in all things.
2El fahk nu sin mwet kulansap se ma matu oemeet lal, su karingin ma lal nukewa, “Filiya poum inmasrlon epuk ac orala sie wulela nu sik.
2And Abraham said unto his servant, the elder of his house, that ruled over all that he had: 'Put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh.
3Nga lungse kom in wulela Inen LEUM GOD , su God lun kusrao ac faclu, lah kom fah tia sulela sie mutan Canaan kien wen nutik uh.
3And I will make thee swear by the LORD, the God of heaven and the God of the earth, that thou shalt not take a wife for my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I dwell.
4Enenu na kom in folokla nu in facl su nga matula we, ac eis sie mutan inmasrlon mwet luk tuh in mutan kial Isaac, wen nutik.”
4But thou shalt go unto my country, and to my kindred, and take a wife for my son, even for Isaac.'
5A mwet kulansap sac siyuk, “Ac mutan sac fin tia lungse fahsr liki acn sel in wiyu tuku nu in acn Canaan? Ya nga ac supwala wen nutum in folokla nwe yen kom tuku we me an?”
5And the servant said unto him: 'Peradventure the woman will not be willing to follow me unto this land; must I needs bring thy son back unto the land from whence thou camest?'
6Abraham el topuk, “Liyaung na kom in tia folokunla wen nutik uh nu we!
6And Abraham said unto him: 'Beware thou that thou bring not my son back thither.
7LEUM GOD lun kusrao El usyume liki acn sin papa tumuk ac liki sou luk, ac El orala wulela na ku se lal nu sik mu El ac sang acn se inge nu sin fwilin tulik nutik. El fah supwala lipufan lal meet liki kom, tuh kom fah ku in konauk sie mutan kien wen nutik uh we.
7The LORD, the God of heaven, who took me from my father's house, and from the land of my nativity, and who spoke unto me, and who swore unto me, saying: Unto thy seed will I give this land; He will send His angel before thee, and thou shalt take a wife for my son from thence.
8Mutan sac fin tia lungse wi kom tuku, na kom sukosok liki wulela se inge. Tusruktu ac fah wangin kutena sripa ac pwanang kom in folokunla wen nutik uh nu we.”
8And if the woman be not willing to follow thee, then thou shalt be clear from this my oath; only thou shalt not bring my son back thither.'
9Ouinge mwet kulansap sac el filiya paol inmasrlon epal Abraham, leum lal, ac wulela in oru oana ma Abraham el fahk nu sel.
9And the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master, and swore to him concerning this matter.
10Ac mwet kulansap sac el us kain in mwe lung puspis fin singoul sin camel nutin leum lal, ac som nu ke siti se yen Nahor el muta we epang in acn Mesopotamia.
10And the servant took ten camels, of the camels of his master, and departed; having all goodly things of his master's in his hand; and he arose, and went to Aram-naharaim, unto the city of Nahor.
11Ke el sun acn we, el orala camel uh in muta nu ten sisken lufin kof se likin siti sac. In pacl se inge ekela, pacl mutan uh in tuku ut kof.
11And he made the camels to kneel down without the city by the well of water at the time of evening, the time that women go out to draw water.
12Mwet kulansap sac pre ac fahk, “O LEUM GOD , God lal Abraham leum luk, akwoye ouiyuk misenge, ac akpwayei wuleang lom nu sel Abraham, leum luk.
12And he said: 'O LORD, the God of my master Abraham, send me, I pray Thee, good speed this day, and show kindness unto my master Abraham.
13Nga a inge, sisken lufin kof se yen mutan fusr in siti uh ac tuku ut kof we.
13Behold, I stand by the fountain of water; and the daughters of the men of the city come out to draw water.
14Nga fah fahk nu sin sie selos, ‘Nunak munas sruhkya sufa in kof nimom an nu ten, ac lela ngan nimya.’ El fin fahk, ‘Nimya, ac nga fah oayapa ut kof nimen camel nutum uh,’ lela tuh in pa inge mutan se ma kom sulela kial Isaac, mwet kulansap lom. Ma se inge fin sikyak, na nga ac fah etu lah kom akpwayei wulela lom nu sin leum luk.”
14So let it come to pass, that the damsel to whom I shall say: Let down thy pitcher, I pray thee, that I may drink; and she shall say: Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also; let the same be she that Thou hast appointed for Thy servant, even for Isaac; and thereby shall I know that Thou hast shown kindness unto my master.'
15Meet liki safla pre lal, Rebecca el sikla, us sufa in ut kof soko finpisal. El acn natul Bethuel, su wen natul Nahor ac Milcah. Nahor el tamulel lal Abraham.
15And it came to pass, before he had done speaking, that, behold, Rebekah came out, who was born to Bethuel the son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, with her pitcher upon her shoulder.
16El mutan fusr na kato se su soenna etu mwet. El tufokla nu ke lufin kof sac, nwakla sufa lal, ac foloko.
16And the damsel was very fair to look upon, a virgin, neither had any man known her; and she went down to the fountain, and filled her pitcher, and came up.
17Mwet kulansap sac kasrusr nu yorol ac fahk, “Nunak munas, ase ngan nimya kof in sufa nimom an.”
17And the servant ran to meet her, and said: 'Give me to drink, I pray thee, a little water of thy pitcher.'
18Mutan fusr sac fahk, “Mwet kacto, nimya.” Ac el sulaklak na sruhkya sufa lal nu ten liki finpisal, ac sruokya ke mwet kulansap sac nim.
18And she said: 'Drink, my lord'; and she hastened, and let down her pitcher upon her hand, and gave him drink.
19Ke el nim tari, mutan sac fahk, “Kolya ngan utiya pac kof nimen camel nutum inge, ac sang eltal in nim na ke kuiyaltal.”
19And when she had done giving him drink, she said: 'I will draw for thy camels also, until they have done drinking.'
20Mutan sac el kina okoala sufa in kof sac nu in mwe nim kof lun kosro uh, ac kasrusr nu ke lufin kof ah in sifilpa ut kof, nwe ke na el kiteya nufonna camel nutin mukul sac.
20And she hastened, and emptied her pitcher into the trough, and ran again unto the well to draw, and drew for all his camels.
21Mukul sac tia kas, a el tuni na mutan fusr sac in liye lah LEUM GOD El akwoye ouiyen fahsr lal.
21And the man looked stedfastly on her; holding his peace, to know whether the LORD had made his journey prosperous or not.
22Ke camel ah nim kof tari, na mwet kulansap sac srukak ring gold na yohk molo se ac sang nu ke infwen mutan fusr sac, ac sang pac lohlpo gold luo nu ke paol.
22And it came to pass, as the camels had done drinking, that the man took a golden ring of half a shekel weight, and two bracelets for her hands of ten shekels weight of gold;
23Ac el fahk, “Nunak munas fahk nu sik lah su papa tomom uh. Ya mwesas lohm sel ah nu sik ac mwet luk inge in mongla we ofong?”
23and said: 'Whose daughter art thou? tell me, I pray thee. Is there room in thy father's house for us to lodge in?'
24Na mutan sac fahk, “Papa tumuk pa Bethuel, wen natul Nahor ac Milcah.
24And she said unto him: 'I am the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcah, whom she bore unto Nahor.'
25Pukanten mah pao ac mongo nun kosro lohm ah, ac mwesas pac lohm ah kowos in mongla we.”
25She said moreover unto him: 'We have both straw and provender enough, and room to lodge in.'
26Na mwet kulansap sac sikukmutunte ac alu nu sin LEUM GOD .
26And the man bowed his head, and prostrated himself before the LORD.
27El fahk, “Kaksakin LEUM GOD , God lal Abraham, leum luk, su oaru in akpwayei wuleang lal nu sin leum luk. LEUM GOD El aksuwoswosye fahsr luk nu yurin sou lun leum luk.”
27And he said: 'Blessed be the LORD, the God of my master Abraham, who hath not forsaken His mercy and His truth toward my master; as for me, the LORD hath led me in the way to the house of my master's brethren.'
28Mutan fusr sac kasrusr nu lohm sin nina kial, ac srumun ma inge nukewa nu sel.
28And the damsel ran, and told her mother's house according to these words.
29Oasr tamulel se lal Rebecca pangpang Laban, ac el kasrusr som nu ke lufin kof sac, nu yen mwet kulansap lal Abraham el muta we.
29And Rebekah had a brother, and his name was Laban; and Laban ran out unto the man, unto the fountain.
30Laban el tuh liye ring nu infwac se ac lohlpo ke poun tamtael lal, ac lohng pac ke mutan sac fahkak ma mwet kulansap sac fahk nu sel. El som nu yurin mwet kulansap lal Abraham, su tu sisken camel natul pe lufin kof sac,
30And it came to pass, when he saw the ring, and the bracelets upon his sister's hands, and when he heard the words of Rebekah his sister, saying: 'Thus spoke the man unto me,' that he came unto the man; and, behold, he stood by the camels at the fountain.
31ac fahk, “Fahsru wiyu nu lohm ah. Kom sie mwet su LEUM GOD El akinsewowoye. Efu kom ku tu na inge? Oasr acn akola nu sum lohm ah, ac oasr pac acn nu sin camel nutum an.”
31And he said: 'Come in, thou blessed of the LORD; wherefore standest thou without? for I have cleared the house, and made room for the camels.'
32Ouinge mukul sac som nu lohm sac, ac Laban el tella ma fin camel ah, ac sang mah pao ac mongo nalos. Na el use kof nu yurin mwet kulansap lal Abraham ac mwet lal, in ohlla nialos.
32And the man came into the house, and he ungirded the camels; and he gave straw and provender for the camels, and water to wash his feet and the feet of the men that were with him.
33Ke mongo uh utuku, mukul sac fahk, “Nga koflana eis mwe kasru inge nwe ke na nga fahkak sripen tuku luk uh.” Laban el fahk, “Srumun ma kom ac fahk an.”
33And there was set food before him to eat; but he said: 'I will not eat, until I have told mine errand.' And he said: 'Speak on.'
34Na el fahk, “Nga mwet kulansap lal Abraham.
34And he said: 'I am Abraham's servant.
35LEUM GOD El arulana akinsewowoye leum luk, oru el arulana kasrup. El sang nu sel un kosro puspis ke sheep, nani, cow, camel ac donkey, oayapa silver, gold, ac mwet kulansap mukul ac mutan.
35And the LORD hath blessed my master greatly; and he is become great; and He hath given him flocks and herds, and silver and gold, and men-servants and maid-servants, and camels and asses.
36Sarah, mutan kien leum luk, el oswela wen se nu sel ke el arulana matu, ac leum luk el sang ma lal nukewa nu sin wen sac tuh in ma lal.
36And Sarah my master's wife bore a son to my master when she was old; and unto him hath he given all that he hath.
37Leum luk el sap nga orala sie wuleang na ku se in akos ma el sapkin. El fahk, ‘Nimet sulela mutan kien wen nutik inmasrlon mutan in acn Canaan.
37And my master made me swear, saying: Thou shalt not take a wife for my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I dwell.
38A som nu yurin mwet lun papa tumuk ac sou luk, ac sulela sie mutan ah kial we.’
38But thou shalt go unto my father's house, and to my kindred, and take a wife for my son.
39Ac nga siyuk sin leum luk, ‘Ac mutan sac fin tia lungse wiyu tuku?’
39And I said unto my master: Peradventure the woman will not follow me.
40El topukyu ac fahk, ‘ LEUM GOD su nga akos pacl nukewa, El ac fah supu lipufan lal in wi kom, ac sot wo ouiya nu sum. Kom fah eis sie mutan ah kien wen nutik inmasrlon mwet luk ac sou lun papa tumuk.
40And he said unto me: The LORD, before whom I walk, will send His angel with thee, and prosper thy way; and thou shalt take a wife for my son of my kindred, and of my father's house;
41Ma sefanna ac ku in aksukosokye kom liki wuleang se lom inge pa kom fin som nu yurin sou luk tuh elos tia lohng siyuk lom.’
41then shalt thou be clear from my oath, when thou comest to my kindred; and if they give her not to thee, thou shalt be clear from my oath.
42“Ke nga tuku sun lufin kof sac misenge, nga pre ac fahk, ‘ LEUM GOD lal Abraham leum luk, nunak munas ase wo ouiya nu ke ma nga fahsr kac uh.
42And I came this day unto the fountain, and said: O LORD, the God of my master Abraham, if now Thou do prosper my way which I go:
43Nga pa inge ke lufin kof uh. Ke pacl se sie mutan fusr ac tuku in ut kof uh, na nga ac siyuk sel elan ase kof ngan nimya liki sufa lal.
43behold, I stand by the fountain of water; and let it come to pass, that the maiden that cometh forth to draw, to whom I shall say: Give me, I pray thee, a little water from thy pitcher to drink;
44El fin etaten ac kiteyu kof, ac oayapa siyuk elan use kof nimen camel nutik uh, lela in el pa mutan se kom sulela tuh in mutan kien wen nutin leum luk!’
44and she shall say to me: Both drink thou, and I will also draw for thy camels; let the same be the woman whom the LORD hath appointed for my master's son.
45Meet liki nga aksafyela pre lun insiuk, Rebecca el sikla us sufa in ut kof soko finpisal, ac oatui nu ke lufin kof sac in ut kof. Nga fahk nu sel, ‘Nunak munas, se ngan nimya.’
45And before I had done speaking to my heart, behold, Rebekah came forth with her pitcher on her shoulder; and she went down unto the fountain, and drew. And I said unto her: Let me drink, I pray thee.
46El kina eisya sufa sac liki finpisal ac fahk, ‘Nimya, ac nga ac fah sang pac kof nimen camel nutum uh.’ Ouinge nga nimya, ac el kiteya pac camel ah.
46And she made haste, and let down her pitcher from her shoulder, and said: Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also. So I drank, and she made the camels drink also.
47Nga siyuk sel, ‘Su papa tomom uh?’ Ac el topuk, ‘Papa tumuk pa Bethuel, wen natul Nahor ac Milcah.’ Na nga sang ring se nu ke fwacl ac lohlpo luo nu ke paol.
47And I asked her, and said: Whose daughter art thou? And she said: The daughter of Bethuel, Nahor's son, whom Milcah bore unto him. And I put the ring upon her nose, and the bracelets upon her hands.
48Nga sikukmutunte ac alu nu sin LEUM GOD . Nga kaksakin LEUM GOD lal Abraham leum luk, su kolyume na nwe yurin sou lun leum luk, yen su nga konauk mutan fusr se natulos tuh in ma kien wen nutin leum luk.
48And I bowed my head, and prostrated myself before 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 for his son.
49Inge, komtal fin akola in oru ip lomtal nu sin leum luk ac insese nu ke siyuk lal uh, na komtal nunak munas fahk nu sik. Ac fin tia, fahk pac, tuh nga in sulela lah mea nga ac oru.”
49And now if ye will deal kindly and truly with my master, tell me; and if not, tell me; that I may turn to the right hand, or to the left.'
50Na Laban ac Bethuel topuk ac fahk, “Ke sripen ma inge ma sin LEUM GOD me uh, wanginna ma kut ac fahk.
50Then Laban and Bethuel answered and said: 'The thing proceedeth from the LORD; we cannot speak unto thee bad or good.
51Rebecca el a inge. Usal ac som. Lela tuh elan mutan kien wen nutin leum lom, in oana ke LEUM GOD El fahk.”
51Behold, Rebekah is before thee, take her, and go, and let her be thy master's son's wife, as the LORD hath spoken.'
52Pacl se mwet kulansap lal Abraham el lohng ma inge, el faksufi ac alu nu sin LEUM GOD .
52And it came to pass, that, when Abraham's servant heard their words, he bowed himself down to the earth unto the LORD.
53Na el tella nuknuk ac silver ac mwe yun gold, ac sang nu sel Rebecca. El oayapa sang mwe kite yohk molo nu sin tamulel lal ac nu sin nina kial.
53And the servant brought forth jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment, and gave them to Rebekah; he gave also to her brother and to her mother precious things.

54And they did eat and drink, he and the men that were with him, and tarried all night; and they rose up in the morning, and he said: 'Send me away unto my master.'
55Tusruktu tamulel lal Rebecca ac nina kial eltal fahk, “Mea, Rebecca el tia ku in mutawin len singoul ma yorosr, na el fah wi kom som?”
55And her brother and her mother said: 'Let the damsel abide with us a few days, at the least ten; after that she shall go.'
56A el fahk, “Nikmet ikol kut in sifilpa muta. LEUM GOD El akwoye fahsr se luk inge. Fuhlela nga in tari folokla nu yurin mwet kacto luk.”
56And he said unto them: 'Delay me not, seeing the LORD hath prospered my way; send me away that I may go to my master.'
57Ac elos fahk, “Pangnolma Rebecca, kut in lohng lah mea el ac fahk.”
57And they said: 'We will call the damsel, and inquire at her mouth.'
58Ouinge elos pangnolma Rebecca ac siyuk, “Kom lungse wi mwet se inge som?” Ac el fahk, “Aok.”
58And they called Rebekah, and said unto her: 'Wilt thou go with this man?' And she said: 'I will go.'
59Ke ma inge elos fuhlella Rebecca ac mutan kulansap se ma liyalang ke pacl el tulik ah yak, in wi mwet kulansap lal Abraham ac mwet lal ah som.
59And they sent away Rebekah their sister, and her nurse, and Abraham's servant, and his men.
60Ac elos akinsewowoyal Rebecca ac fahk, “Lela tuh kom, tamtael wiasr, in nina kien million! Ac fwilin tulik nutum in kutangla siti lun mwet lokoalok lalos!”
60And they blessed Rebekah, and said unto her: 'Our sister, be thou the mother of thousands of ten thousands, and let thy seed possess the gate of those that hate them.'
61Na Rebecca ac mutan fusr kulansap lal elos akola ac sroang nu fin camel uh in wi mwet kulansap lal Abraham. Na elos nukewa mukuiyak som.
61And Rebekah arose, and her damsels, and they rode upon the camels, and followed the man. And the servant took Rebekah, and went his way.
62Isaac el tuku nu in acn turangang se ke “Lufin Kof Lun El Su Moul Ac Liyeyu,” ac el muta layen eir ke sie ipin acn Canaan.

63Ke tufahna ekela el illa ac fufahsryesr in polo acn sac, ac liyauk kutu camel fahfahsru.
63And Isaac went out to meditate in the field at the eventide; and he lifted up his eyes, and saw, and, behold, there were camels coming.

64And Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and when she saw Isaac, she alighted from the camel.
