Genesis 24:15-28
15And it came to pass before he had ended speaking, that behold, Rebecca came out, who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother; and [she had] her pitcher upon her shoulder.
16And the maiden was very fair in countenance; a virgin, and no man had known her. And she went down to the well, and filled her pitcher, and came up.
17And the servant ran to meet her, and said, Let me, I pray thee, sip a little water out of thy pitcher.
18And she said, Drink, my lord! And she hasted and let down her pitcher on her hand, and gave him to drink.
19And when she had given him enough to drink, she said, I will draw [water] for thy camels also, until they have drunk enough.
20And she hasted and emptied her pitcher into the trough, and ran again to the well to draw [water]; and she drew for all his camels.
21And the man was astonished at her, remaining silent, to know whether Jehovah had made his journey prosperous or not.
22And it came to pass when the camels had drunk enough, that the man took a gold ring, of half a shekel weight, and two bracelets for her hands, ten [shekels] weight of gold,
23and said, Whose daughter art thou? tell me, I pray thee. Is there room [in] thy father's house for us to lodge?
24And she said to him, I am the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcah, whom she bore to Nahor.
25And she said to him, There is straw, and also much provender with us; also room to lodge.
26And the man stooped, and bowed down before Jehovah,
27and said, Blessed be Jehovah, 1God of my master Abraham, who has not withdrawn his loving-kindness and his faithfulness from my master; I being in the way, Jehovah has led me to the house of my master's brethren.
28And the maiden ran and told these things to her mother's house.
