10And the servantH5650 tookH3947 tenH6235 camelsH1581 of the camelsH1581 of his masterH113, and departedH3212; for all the goodsH2898 of his masterH113 were in his handH3027: and he aroseH6965, and wentH3212 to MesopotamiaH763, unto the cityH5892 of NahorH5152.1 11And he madeH1288 his camelsH1581 to kneel downH1288 withoutH2351 the cityH5892 byH413 a wellH875 of waterH4325 at the timeH6256 of the eveningH6153, even the timeH6256 that women go outH3318 to drawH7579 water.2 12And he saidH559, O YhwhH3068 GodH430 of my masterH113 AbrahamH85, I pray thee, send meH6440 good speedH7136 this dayH3117, and shewH6213 kindnessH2617 untoH5973 my masterH113 AbrahamH85. 13Behold, I standH5324 here by the wellH5869 of waterH4325; and the daughtersH1323 of the menH582 of the cityH5892 come outH3318 to drawH7579 waterH4325: 14And let it come to pass, that the damselH5291 to whom I shall sayH559, Let downH5186 thy pitcherH3537, I pray thee, that I may drinkH8354; and she shall sayH559, DrinkH8354, and I will giveH8248 thy camelsH1581 drinkH8248 also: let the same be she that thou hast appointedH3198 for thy servantH5650 IsaacH3327; and thereby shall I knowH3045 that thou hast shewedH6213 kindnessH2617 unto my masterH113.
15And it came to pass, before he had doneH3615 speakingH1696, that, behold, RebekahH7259 came outH3318, whoH834 was bornH3205 to BethuelH1328, sonH1121 of MilcahH4435, the wifeH802 of NahorH5152, Abraham’sH85 brotherH251, with her pitcherH3537 upon her shoulderH7926. 16And the damselH5291 was veryH3966 fairH2896 to look uponH4758, a virginH1330, neither had any manH376 knownH3045 her: and she went downH3381 to the wellH5869, and filledH4390 her pitcherH3537, and came upH5927.3 17And the servantH5650 ranH7323 to meet herH7125, and saidH559, Let me, I pray thee, drinkH1572 a littleH4592 waterH4325 of thy pitcherH3537. 18And she saidH559, DrinkH8354, my lordH113: and she hastedH4116, and let downH3381 her pitcherH3537 upon her handH3027, and gave him drinkH8248. 19And when she had doneH3615 giving him drinkH8248, she saidH559, I will drawH7579 water for thy camelsH1581 also, until they have doneH3615 drinkingH8354. 20And she hastedH4116, and emptiedH6168 her pitcherH3537 into the troughH8268, and ranH7323 again unto the wellH875 to drawH7579 water, and drewH7579 for all his camelsH1581.
