So the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master and swore to him concerning this matter.

And the servant took ten camels from the camels of his master and departed, having all kinds of his master's good things in his hand. And he rose up and went to Aram-naharaim, to the city of Nahor.

And he made the camels kneel down outside the city by the well of water at the time of evening, at the time when women go out to draw water.

And he said, O Jehovah, the God of my master Abraham, please grant me success today, and show lovingkindness to my master Abraham.

I am standing here by the spring of water as the daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water.

And may it be that the girl to whom I say, Please let down your pitcher that I may drink, and who says, Drink, and I will also give your camels a drink, may she be the one whom You have appointed for Your servant, for Isaac; and in this I will know that You have shown kindness to my master.

But before he had finished speaking, there was Rebekah, who was born to Bethuel the son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, coming out with her pitcher upon her shoulder.

And the girl was very beautiful in appearance, a virgin, and no man had known her. And she went down to the spring and filled her pitcher and came up.

And the servant ran to meet her and said, Please let me sip a little water from your pitcher.

And she said, Drink, my lord. And she hurried and lowered her pitcher on her hand and gave him a drink.

And when she had finished giving him a drink, she said, I will draw water for your camels also, until they have finished drinking.

And she hurried and emptied her pitcher into the trough and ran again to the well to draw water, and she drew it for all his camels.

And the man gazed fixedly upon her in silence to know whether Jehovah had made his journey prosperous or not.

And when the camels had finished drinking, the man took a golden nose-ring weighing half a shekel and two bracelets for her hands weighing ten gold shekels,

And said, Whose daughter are you? Please tell me, is there room in your father's house for us to lodge in?

And she said to him, I am the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcah, whom she bore to Nahor.

She also said to him, We have plenty of straw and fodder and also a place to lodge.

And the man bowed and worshipped Jehovah.

And he said, Blessed be Jehovah, the God of my master Abraham, who has not forsaken His lovingkindness and His faithfulness toward my master. As for me, Jehovah has led me in the way to the house of my master's brothers.

And the girl ran and told her mother's house about these things.
