Genesis 24:10-14

10And the servantH5650 tookH3947 tenH6235 camelsH1581, of the camelsH1581 of his masterH113, and departed; havingH113 allH3605 goodly things of his master’sH113 in his handH3027: and he aroseH6965, and wentH6965 to MesopotamiaH763, unto the cityH5892 of NahorH5152.

11And he made the camelsH1581 to kneelH1288 downH1288 without the cityH5892 by the wellH875 of waterH4325 at the time of eveningH6153, the time that women goH3318 outH3318 to drawH7579 waterH4325.

12And he saidH559, O LORDH3068, the GodH430 of my masterH113 AbrahamH85, send meH4994, I prayH4994 thee, good speed this dayH3117, and shew kindnessH2617 unto my masterH113 AbrahamH85.

13BeholdH2009, I standH5324 by the fountain of waterH4325; and the daughtersH1323 of the menH376 of the cityH5892 comeH3318 outH3318 to drawH7579 waterH4325:

14and letH4994 it comeH1961 to passH1961, that the damsel to whomH834 I shall sayH559, LetH4994 downH5186 thy pitcherH3537, I prayH4994 thee, that I may drinkH8354; and sheH834 shall sayH559, DrinkH8354, and I will giveH8248 thy camelsH1581 drinkH8354 also: letH4994 the sameH853 be sheH834 that thou hast appointedH3198 for thy servantH5650 IsaacH3327; and thereby shall I knowH3045 that thou hast shewed kindnessH2617 unto my masterH113.
