33But wen dey bring da food, da luna guy tell, “Befo I eat, I goin tell you wat I suppose to tell you. Den can eat.”

An Abraham tell, dat afta he mahke, his boy goin get all Abraham stuffs.
37“My boss Abraham wen make me make one strong promise to him.

Dis wat you gotta do: go my faddah house, by my ohana peopo fo get one wife fo my boy.’ 39I wen tell my boss, ‘But Bummahs!

He tell me, dat he goin sen one a his angel messenja guys wit you. Dass how he goin make eryting come out good fo you. You goin get one wahine from my faddah guy ohana fo come my boy wife. 41Den you no gotta do wat you wen promise fo do bout dis ting. An wen you get dea by my ohana peopo, if dey no let you take nobody, dass okay too. You gotta do wat you wen promise fo do.’
42“Today, I come hea, by da puka wea da watta come out. I tell God, ‘Eh! Da One In Charge, you da God fo my boss Abraham. I like you make eryting come out good fo dis ting dat I come hea fo do! 43Now, I stay standing hea by dis puka wea da watta come out. Az why, if one young wahine come outa da town fo get watta, I goin tell her, “Try let me drink litto bit outa yoa watta pot.” 44An if she tell me, “Shoots, drink up, an I go pull up watta fo yoa camels too”—Eh! Da One In Charge, make dat da wahine you wen pick fo come da wife fo my boss boy!’
45“Befo I pau tell all dis dat stay inside me, right den an dea come Rebecca outside da town wit her watta pot on top her shoulda. She go down inside wea get da puka an fill up da watta pot. Den I tell her, ‘Try give me watta.’ 46Right den an dea she take down da watta pot an tell, ‘Drink. I get watta fo yoa camels too.’ So I wen drink, an den she get watta fo da camels too.
47“I wen tell, ‘Yoa faddah guy, who him?’ She tell, ‘Me, I Betuel daughtah. His faddah Nahor, an his muddah Milkah.’ Den I wen give her da nose ring an da arm bracelets fo wear. 48I go down on top da groun fo show respeck fo Da One In Charge, da God fo my boss Abraham. I tell Da One In Charge dat he do one real good ting fo me, cuz he bring me da right way fo find my boss braddah guy fo take his grandaughta fo come da wife fo Abraham boy.
49“So now, I like you guys tell me dis: You guys goin stay tight wit my boss, an do da right ting fo him, o wat? An if you guys no like, tell me fo real kine, I goin go anodda place.”
50Den Laban an Betuel tell da luna guy, “Was Da One In Charge dat wen bring you hea awready fo aks fo Rebecca come his wife. Us guys no can tell you ‘Yeah’ o ‘No.’ 51Rebecca stay right hea in front you fo you take her fo come da wife fo yoa boss boy, jalike Da One In Charge tell.”
52Wen da luna guy fo Abraham hear wat dey tell, he go down on top da groun fo show love an respeck fo Da One In Charge. 53Den he take stuff outa da bags fo give Rebecca. He give her all kine silva an gold kine jewelry an clotheses. He give plenny expensive stuffs to her braddah an her muddah too. 54Den da luna guy an da odda guys wit him eat an drink, an den dey sleep dea dat nite.
Da nex day, dey wake up, an da luna guy tell, “Kay den. I like fo you guys let me an Rebecca go back by my boss now.”
55But da braddah guy an da muddah guy, dey tell, “Mo betta let Rebecca stay hea wit us guys bout ten days moa, an afta, she can go.”
56Da luna tell dem, “God, Da One In Charge make eryting I do come out good. Az why no good fo you make me stay hea long time. I like fo you guys let me go back by my boss.”
57Da braddah guy an da muddah guy, dey tell, “We go tell da girl fo come, an aks her wat she like do.”
58Dey tell Rebecca fo come, an dey aks her, “You like go now wit dis guy, o wat?”
She tell, “I like go.”
59So, dey let dea sistah Rebecca go, her an da lady dat work fo her from small bebe time. Dey go wit Abraham luna guy an his helpa guys.
60Da ohana peopo tell God fo do good tings fo Rebecca. Dey tell,
“Eh, you oua sistah!
We like you come da ancesta wahine
Fo ten million peopo!
We like da peopo dat goin come from you come strong
So wen odda peopo go agains dem,

She come down quick from on top da camel. 65She tell da luna guy, “Eh, dat guy ova dea inside da open country, da one dat stay walk dis way, who him?”
Da luna tell, “Him, my boss.” Den Rebecca take one piece cloth an hide her face fo show respeck fo da guy dat goin come her husban. 66Da luna guy tell Isaac eryting he wen do. 67Den Isaac marry Rebecca. He bring Rebecca fo live inside da same tent wea his muddah Sarah live befo she mahke. Isaac get plenny love an aloha fo Rebecca.
