Genesis 24:11-15

11And he made the camelsH1581 kneel down outside the cityH5892 by a wellH875 of waterH4325, at the timeH6256 of the eveningH6153, when the women cameH3318 out to drawH7579 [waterH4325].

12And he saidH559, Jehovah, 1GodH430 of my masterH113 AbrahamH85, meet me, I pray thee, [with thy blessing] this dayH3117, and deal kindly with my masterH113 AbrahamH85.

13Behold, I standH5324 [hereH2009] by the well of waterH4325, and the daughtersH1323 of the menH376 of the cityH5892 comeH3318 out to drawH7579 waterH4325.

14And let it come to pass, [that] the maiden to whom I shall sayH559, Let down thy pitcher, I pray thee, that I may drinkH8354, and who will sayH559, DrinkH8354, and I will giveH8248 thy camelsH1581 drinkH8354 alsoH1571, beH1961 she whom thou hast appointedH3198 for thy servantH5650 IsaacH3327; and hereby I shall knowH3045 that thou hast dealt kindly with my masterH113.

15And it came to pass before he had endedH3615 speakingH1696, that behold, Rebecca came out, who wasH1961 bornH3205 to BethuelH1328, sonH1121 of MilcahH4435 the wifeH802 of NahorH5152, Abraham's brotherH251; and [she had] her pitcher upon her shoulderH7926.
