Genesis:24:10-20
Seeker Overlay ON
*
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 he made his camels to kneel down without the city by a well of water at the time of the evening ,
even the time that women go out to draw water .
*
And he said ,
O LORD God of my master Abraham ,
I pray thee ,
send me good speed this day ,
and shew kindness unto my master Abraham .
*
Behold ,
I stand here by the well of water ;
and the daughters of the men of the city come out to draw water :
*
And let it come to pass ,
that the damsel to whom I shall say ,
Let down thy pitcher ,
I pray thee ,
that I may drink ;
and she shall say ,
Drink ,
and I will give thy camels drink also :
let the same be she that thou hast appointed for thy servant Isaac ;
and thereby shall I know that thou hast shewed kindness unto my master .
*
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 damsel was very fair to look upon ,
a virgin ,
neither had any man known her :
and she went down to the well ,
and filled her pitcher ,
and came up .
*
And the servant ran to meet her ,
and said ,
Let me ,
I pray thee ,
drink a little water of thy pitcher .
*
And she said ,
Drink ,
my lord :
and she hasted ,
and let down her pitcher upon her hand ,
and gave him drink .
*
And when she had done giving him drink ,
she said ,
I will draw water for thy camels also ,
until they have done drinking .
*
And she hasted ,
and emptied her pitcher into the trough ,
and ran again unto the well to draw water ,
and drew for all his camels .
