    10The servant took ten camels from his master’s herds and set out, taking with him all kinds of good gifts from his master. He went to Aram Naharaim, to the city of Nahor.

    11He had the camels kneel down outside the city by a well of water at evening time, the time when women go out to draw water.

    12Then he prayed, "Lord, God of my master Abraham, please grant me success today and show kindness to my master Abraham."

    13"See, I am standing here by the spring, and the daughters of the townspeople are coming out to draw water.

    14May it be that when I say to a young woman, 'Please let down your jar so that I may drink,' and she says, 'Drink, and I'll water your camels too,' let her be the one you have chosen for your servant Isaac. By this I will know that you have shown kindness to my master."

    15Before he had finished praying, Rebekah came out with her jar on her shoulder. She was the daughter of Bethuel, son of Milcah, who was the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother.

    16The young woman was very beautiful, a virgin; no man had ever slept with her. She went down to the spring, filled her jar, and came up again.

    17The servant hurried to meet her and said, "Please give me a little water from your jar."

    18"Drink, my lord," she said, and quickly lowered the jar to her hands and gave him a drink.

    19After she had given him a drink, she said, "I'll draw water for your camels too, until they have had enough to drink."

    20So she quickly emptied her jar into the trough, ran back to the well to draw more water, and drew enough for all his camels.

    39Then I said to my master, 'What if the woman does not come back with me?'

    40He answered me, 'The Lord, before whom I have walked, will send His angel with you and make your journey successful, so that you can take a wife for my son from my family and my father's household.

    41'You will be released from my oath if you go to my family and they refuse to give her to you. Then you will be free from my oath.'

    42So today I came to the spring and prayed, 'Lord, God of my master Abraham, if you are making my journey successful,

    43see, I am standing beside this spring. If a young woman comes out to draw water and I say to her, "Please give me a little water from your jar to drink,"

    44and she says to me, "Drink, and I will draw water for your camels too," let her be the one the Lord has chosen for my master's son.'

    45Before I had finished speaking to myself, Rebekah came out with her jar on her shoulder. She went down to the spring, drew water, and I said to her, 'Please give me a drink.'

    46She quickly lowered her jar from her shoulder and said, 'Drink, and I will water your camels also.' So I drank, and she also watered the camels.

    47Then I asked her, 'Whose daughter are you?' She said, 'I am the daughter of Bethuel, the son of Nahor, whom Milcah bore to him.' So I put the ring on her nose and the bracelets on her arms.

    48Then I bowed down and worshiped the Lord. I praised the Lord, the God of my master Abraham, who led me on the right path to take the daughter of my master’s kinsman for his son.

    49Now if you are willing to show kindness and faithfulness to my master, tell me. If not, tell me, so that I may turn to the right or to the left.
