13. Behold, I am standing by the spring of water. The daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water.
14. Let it happen, that the young lady to whom I will say, ‘Please let down your pitcher, that I may drink,’ and she will say, ‘Drink, and I will also give your camels a drink,’—let her be the one you have appointed for your servant Isaac. By this I will know that you have shown kindness to my master.”
15. Before he had finished speaking, behold, Rebekah came out, who was born to Bethuel the son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham’s brother, with her pitcher on her shoulder.
16. The young lady was very beautiful to look at, a virgin. No man had known her. She went down to the spring, filled her pitcher, and came up.
17. The servant ran to meet her, and said, “Please give me a drink, a little water from your pitcher.”
18. She said, “Drink, my lord.” She hurried, and let down her pitcher on her hand, and gave him a drink.
19. When she had finished giving him a drink, she said, “I will also draw for your camels, until they have finished drinking.”
20. She hurried, and emptied her pitcher into the trough, and ran again to the well to draw, and drew for all his camels.
21. The man looked steadfastly at her, remaining silent, to know whether the Lord had made his journey prosperous or not.
22. As the camels had done drinking, the man took a golden ring of half a shekel weight, and two bracelets for her hands of ten shekels weight of gold,
23. and said, “Whose daughter are you? Please tell me. Is there room in your father’s house for us to stay?”
24. She said to him, “I am the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcah, whom she bore to Nahor.”
25. She said moreover to him, “We have both straw and feed enough, and room to lodge in.”
26. The man bowed his head, and worshipped the Lord.
