¹⁹ ·This is the family history [^LThese are the generations; 2:4] of Isaac. Abraham ·had a son named [or was the father of] Isaac. ²⁰ When Isaac was forty years old, he ·married [^Ltook as a wife] Rebekah [ch. 24], ·who came from northwestern Mesopotamia [^Lthe Aramean from Paddan-aram]. She was Bethuel’s daughter and the sister of Laban the Aramean. ²¹ Isaac’s wife ·could not have children [was barren], so Isaac ·prayed to [entreated; interceded with] the Lord for her. The Lord heard Isaac’s prayer, and Rebekah ·became pregnant [conceived].
