13. While I stand here at the spring and the daughters of the townspeople are coming out to draw water,
14. if I say to a young woman, ‘Please lower your jug, that I may drink,’ and she answers, ‘Drink, and I will water your camels, too,’ then she is the one whom you have decided upon for your servant Isaac. In this way I will know that you have dealt graciously with my master.”
15. He had scarcely finished speaking when Rebekah—who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah, the wife of Abraham’s brother Nahor—came out with a jug on her shoulder.
16. The young woman was very beautiful, a virgin, untouched by man. She went down to the spring and filled her jug. As she came up,
17. the servant ran toward her and said, “Please give me a sip of water from your jug.”
18. “Drink, sir,” she replied, and quickly lowering the jug into her hand, she gave him a drink.
19. When she had finished giving him a drink, she said, “I will draw water for your camels, too, until they have finished drinking.”
