11 And when he had made the camels lie down without the town near a well of water in Evening, at the time when women were wont to come out to draw water, he said: 12 O Lord the God of my master Abraham, meet me to day, I beseech thee, and show kindness to my master Abraham. 13 Behold I stand nigh the spring of water, and the daughters of the inhabitants of this city will come out to draw water. 14 Now, therefore, the maid to whom I shall say: Let down thy pitcher that I may drink: and she shall answer, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: let it be the same whom thou hast provided for thy servant Isaac: and by this I shall understand, that thou hast shown kindness to my master.
