And Jacob fled into the country of Syria, and Israel served for a wife, and for a wife he kept sheep.

And Isaac sent away Jacob: and he went to Padanaram unto Laban, son of Bethuel the Syrian, the brother of Rebekah, Jacob's and Esau's mother.

And it came to pass after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she hath also born children unto thy brother Nahor;

And Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel.

And the servant took ten camels of the camels of his master, and departed; for all the goods of his master were in his hand: and he arose, and went to Mesopotamia, unto the city of Nahor.

And it came to pass, before he had done speaking, that, behold, Rebekah came out, who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, with her pitcher upon her shoulder.

And the servant ran to meet her, and said, Let me, I pray thee, drink a little water of thy pitcher.

And when she had done giving him drink, she said, I will draw water for thy camels also, until they have done drinking.

And the man wondering at her held his peace, to wit whether the LORD had made his journey prosperous or not.

And said, Whose daughter art thou? tell me, I pray thee: is there room in thy father's house for us to lodge in?

And Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padanaram, the sister to Laban the Syrian.

Then Jacob went on his journey, and came into the land of the people of the east.

And he carried away all his cattle, and all his goods which he had gotten, the cattle of his getting, which he had gotten in Padanaram, for to go to Isaac his father in the land of Canaan.

I am not worthy of the least of all the mercies, and of all the truth, which thou hast shewed unto thy servant; for with my staff I passed over this Jordan; and now I am become two bands.

And God appeared unto Jacob again, when he came out of Padanaram, and blessed him.

These be the sons of Leah, which she bare unto Jacob in Padanaram, with his daughter Dinah: all the souls of his sons and his daughters were thirty and three.

And Rebekah had a brother, and his name was Laban: and Laban ran out unto the man, unto the well.

Then Laban and Bethuel answered and said, The thing proceedeth from the LORD: we cannot speak unto thee bad or good.
