Genesis 24:10-14

10And the servantH5650 tookH3947 tenH6235 camelsH1581, of the camelsH1581 of his masterH113, and departed, having all goodly things of his master’sH113 in his handH3027: and he aroseH6965, and went to Mesopotamia, unto the cityH5892 of NahorH5152. 11And he made the camelsH1581 to kneel down without the cityH5892 by the wellH875 of waterH4325 at the timeH6256 of eveningH6153, the timeH6256 that women goH3318 out to drawH7579 waterH4325. 12And he saidH559, O Jehovah, the GodH430 of my masterH113 AbrahamH85, send me, I pray thee, good speed this dayH3117, and show kindness unto my masterH113 AbrahamH85. 13Behold, I am standingH5324 by the fountain of waterH4325; and the daughtersH1323 of the menH376 of the cityH5892 are comingH3318 out to drawH7579 waterH4325: 14and let it come to pass, that the damsel to whom I shall sayH559, Let down thy pitcher, I pray thee, that I may drinkH8354; and she shall sayH559, DrinkH8354, and I will giveH8248 thy camelsH1581 drinkH8354 alsoH1571: let the same beH1961 she that thou hast appointedH3198 for thy servantH5650 IsaacH3327; and thereby shall I knowH3045 that thou hast showed kindness unto my masterH113.
