Genesis 24:35-45 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

35. And the LORD has blessed my master greatly; and he has become great: and he has given him flocks, and herds, and silver, and gold, and menservants, and maidservants, and camels, and donkeys.

36. And Sarah my master's wife bore a son to my master when she was old: and unto him has he given all that he has.

37. And my master made me swear, saying, You shall not take a wife to my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I dwell:

38. But you shall go unto my father's house, and to my kindred, and take a wife unto my son.

39. And I said unto my master, Perhaps the woman will not follow me.

40. And he said unto me, The LORD, before whom I walk, will send his angel with you, and prosper your way; and you shall take a wife for my son of my kindred, and of my father's house:

41. Then shall you be clear from this my oath, when you come to my kindred; and if they give you not one, you shall be clear from my oath.

42. And I came this day unto the well, and said, O LORD God of my master Abraham, if now you do prosper my way which I go:

43. Behold, I stand by the well of water; and it shall come to pass, that when the virgin comes forth to draw water, and I say to her, Give me, I pray you, a little water of your pitcher to drink;

44. And she says to me, Both drink, and I will also draw for your camels: let the same be the woman whom the LORD has appointed out for my master's son.

45. And before I had finished speaking in my heart, behold, Rebekah came forth with her pitcher on her shoulder; and she went down unto the well, and drew water: and I said unto her, Let me drink, I pray you.
