15. he had not yet ended these words within himself, and behold Rebecca came out, the daughter of Bathuel, son of Melcha, wife to Nachor the brother of Abraham, having a pitcher on her shoulder:
16. An exceedingly comely maid, and a most beautiful virgin, and not known to man: and she went down to the spring, and filled her pitcher and was coming back.
17. And the servant ran to meet her, and said: Give me a little water to drink of thy pitcher.
18. And she answered: Drink, my lord. And quickly she let down the pitcher upon her arm, and gave him drink.
19. And when he had drunk, she said: I will draw water for thy camels also, till they all drink.
20. And pouring out the pitcher into the troughs, she ran back to the well to draw water: and having drawn she gave to all the camels.
21. But he musing beheld her with silence, desirous to know whether the Lord had made his journey prosperous or not.
22. And after that the camels had drunk, the man took out golden earrings, weighing two sicles: and as many bracelets of ten sicles weight.
23. And he said to her: Whose daughter art thou? tell me: is there any place in thy father's house to lodge?
24. And she answered: I am the daughter of Bathuel, the son of Melcha, whom she bore to Nachor.
