38. But you shall go to the house of my father, and to my family, and you shall take a wife for my son.’
39. And I said to my master, ‘Perhaps the woman will not follow me.’
40. And he said to me, ‘Yahweh, before whom I have walked, shall send his angel with you and will make your journey successful. And you shall take a wife for my son from my family, and from the house of my father.
41. Then you shall be released from my oath, when you come to my family. And if they will not give a woman to you, then you will be released from my oath.’
42. Then today I came to the spring, and I said, ‘O Yahweh, God of my master Abraham, if you would please make my journey successful, upon which I am going.
43. Behold, I am standing by the spring of water. Let it be that the young woman who comes out to draw water and to whom I say, “Please give me a little water to drink from your jar,”
44. let her say to me, “Drink; I will also draw water for your camels,” she is the woman whom Yahweh has appointed for the son of my master.’
