Genesis 24:13-20 ▼

13 behold, I am standing by the fountain of water, and daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water;

14 and it has been, the young person to whom I say, Please incline your pitcher and I drink, and she has said, Drink, and I also water your camels)—her [whom] You have decided for Your servant, for Isaac; and by it I know that You have done kindness with my lord.”

15 And it comes to pass, before he has finished speaking, that behold, Rebekah (who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah, wife of Nahor, brother of Abraham) is coming out, and her pitcher on her shoulder,

16 and the young person [is] of very good appearance, a virgin, and a man has not known her; and she goes down to the fountain, and fills her pitcher, and comes up.

17 And the servant runs to meet her and says, “Please let me swallow a little water from your pitcher”;

18 and she says, “Drink, my lord”; and she hurries, and lets down her pitcher on her hand, and gives him drink.

19 And she finishes giving him drink and says, “Also for your camels I draw until they have finished drinking”;

20 and she hurries, and empties her pitcher into the drinking-trough, and runs again to the well to draw, and draws for all his camels.
