12 Then he prayed, “Lord, God of my master Abraham,c make me successfuld today, and show kindnesse to my master Abraham. 13 See, I am standing beside this spring, and the daughters of the townspeople are coming out to draw water.f 14 May it be that when I say to a young woman, ‘Please let down your jar that I may have a drink,’ and she says, ‘Drink,g and I’ll water your camels too’h—let her be the one you have chosen for your servant Isaac.i By this I will knowj that you have shown kindness to my master.”

15 Before he had finished praying,k Rebekahl came out with her jar on her shoulder. She was the daughter of Bethuelm son of Milkah,n who was the wife of Abraham’s brother Nahor.o 16 The woman was very beautiful,p a virgin;q no man had ever slept with her. She went down to the spring, filled her jar and came up again.

17 The servant hurried to meet her and said, “Please give me a little water from your jar.”r

18 “Drink,s my lord,” she said, and quickly lowered the jar to her hands and gave him a drink.

19 After she had given him a drink, she said, “I’ll draw water for your camelst too,u until they have had enough to drink.” 20 So she quickly emptied her jar into the trough, ran back to the well to draw more water, and drew enough for all his camels.v
