Genesis 24:15-28

Rebekah Goes with Abraham’s Servant

15 ^aAnd before he had finished speaking, behold, ^bRebekah who was born to Bethuel the son of ^cMilcah, the wife of Abraham’s brother Nahor, was coming out with her jar on her shoulder. 16 Now the young woman was ^avery beautiful in appearance, a virgin, and no man had ¹known her; and she went down to the spring and filled her jar and came up. 17 Then the servant ran to meet her and said, “^aPlease give me a little water to drink from your jar.” 18 ^aAnd she said, “Drink, my lord”; and she quickly lowered her jar to her hand and gave him a drink. 19 Now when she had finished giving him a drink, ^ashe said, “I will draw also for your camels until they have finished drinking.” 20 So she hurried and emptied her jar into the watering channel and ran again to the well to draw, and she drew for all his camels. 21 ^aMeanwhile, the man was gazing at her ¹in silence, to know whether Yahweh had made his journey successful or not.
22 Now it happened that when the camels had finished drinking, the man took a ^agold ring weighing a ¹half-shekel and two bracelets for her ²wrists weighing ten shekels in gold, 23 and said, “Whose daughter are you? Please tell me, is there a place for us to lodge in your father’s house?” 24 And she said to him, “^aI am the daughter of Bethuel, the son of Milcah, whom she bore to Nahor.” 25 And she said to him, “We have plenty of both straw and feed, and a place to lodge in.” 26 Then the man ^abowed low and worshiped Yahweh. 27 And he said, “^aBlessed be Yahweh, the God of my master Abraham, who has not forsaken ^bHis lovingkindness and His truth toward my master; as for me, ^cYahweh has guided me in the way to the house of my master’s brothers.”
28 Then ^athe young woman ran and told her mother’s household about these things.
