Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Aramaean of Paddan-aram, and the sister of Laban the Aramaean, to be his wife.

These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names in their towns and their tent-circles; twelve chiefs with their peoples.
Hadad and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah:
And when Rebekah, looking up, saw Isaac, she got down from her camel,
