Genesis 24:11-28

[11] 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  [12] 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.  [13] Behold, I stand  here by the well  of water;  and the daughters  of the city  come out  to draw  water:  [14] 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,  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.  [15] 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.  [16] 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.  [17] And the servant  ran  to meet her,  and said,  Let me, I pray thee, drink  a little  water  of thy pitcher.  [18] And she said,  Drink,  my lord:  and she hasted,  and let down  her pitcher  upon her hand,  and gave him drink.  [19] And when she had done  giving him drink,  she said,  I will draw  water for thy camels  also, until they have done  drinking.  [20] And she hasted,  and emptied  her pitcher  into the trough,  and ran  again unto the well  to draw  for all his camels.  [21] And the man  wondering  at her held his peace,  to wit  whether the LORD  his journey  prosperous  or  not. [22] 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;  [23] And said,  Whose  daughter  art thou?  tell  me, I pray thee: is there  room  in thy father's  house  for us to lodge in?  [24] And she said  unto him, I am the daughter  of Bethuel  the son  of Milcah,  which she bare  unto Nahor.  [25] She said  moreover unto him, We have both  straw  and provender  enough,  and  room  to lodge in.  [26] And the man  bowed down his head,  and worshipped  the LORD.  [27] 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.  [28] And the damsel  ran,  and told  them of her mother's  house  these things.
