Genesis:24:15-27
Seeker Overlay ON
*
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 .
*
And the man wondering at her held his peace ,
to wit whether the LORD had made his journey prosperous or not .
*
And it came to pass ,
as the camels had done drinking ,
that the man took a golden earring of half a shekel weight ,
and two bracelets for her hands of ten shekels weight of gold ;
*
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 she said unto him ,
I am the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcah ,
which she bare unto Nahor .
*
She said moreover unto him ,
We have both straw and provender enough ,
and room to lodge in .
*
And the man bowed down his head ,
and worshipped the LORD .
*
And he said ,
Blessed be the LORD God of my master Abraham ,
who hath not left destitute my master of his mercy and his truth :
I being in the way ,
the LORD led me to the house of my master '
s brethren .
