42. When I came to the well today, I silently prayed, “You, Lord, are the God my master Abraham worships, so please lead me to a wife for his son
43. while I am here at the well. When a young woman comes out to get water, I'll ask her to give me a drink.
44. If she gives me a drink and offers to get some water for my camels, I'll know she is the one you have chosen.”
45. Even before I had finished praying, Rebekah came by with a water jar on her shoulder. When she had filled the jar, I asked her for a drink.
46. She quickly lowered the jar from her shoulder and said, “Have a drink. Then I'll get water for your camels.” So I drank, and after that she got some water for my camels.
47. I asked her who her father was, and she answered, “My father is Bethuel the son of Nahor and Milcah.” Straight away I put the ring in her nose and the bracelets on her arms.
48. Then I bowed my head and gave thanks to the God my master Abraham worships. The Lord had led me straight to my master's relatives, and I had found a wife for his son.
49. Now please tell me if you are willing to do the right thing for my master. Will you treat him fairly, or do I have to look for another young woman?
