Isaac Marries Rebekah

62 Now Isaac had come from going to (A)Beer-lahai-roi; for he (a)was living in (B)the (b)Negev. 63 Isaac went out (C)to (c)meditate in the field toward evening; and (D)he lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, camels were coming. 64 Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and when she saw Isaac she dismounted from the camel. 65 She said to the servant, “Who is that man walking in the field to meet us?” And the servant said, “He is my master.” Then she took her (d)veil and covered herself. 66 The servant told Isaac all the things that he had done. 67 Then Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah’s tent, and (E)he took Rebekah, and she became his wife, and (F)he loved her; thus Isaac was comforted after (G)his mother’s death.
