New Living Translation

Genesis 24:17-26 New Living Translation (NLT)

17. Running over to her, the servant said, “Please give me a little drink of water from your jug.”

18. “Yes, my lord,” she answered, “have a drink.” And she quickly lowered her jug from her shoulder and gave him a drink.

19. When she had given him a drink, she said, “I’ll draw water for your camels, too, until they have had enough to drink.”

20. So she quickly emptied her jug into the watering trough and ran back to the well to draw water for all his camels.

21. The servant watched her in silence, wondering whether or not the lord had given him success in his mission.

22. Then at last, when the camels had finished drinking, he took out a gold ring for her nose and two large gold bracelets for her wrists.

23. “Whose daughter are you?” he asked. “And please tell me, would your father have any room to put us up for the night?”

24. “I am the daughter of Bethuel,” she replied. “My grandparents are Nahor and Milcah.

25. Yes, we have plenty of straw and feed for the camels, and we have room for guests.”

26. The man bowed low and worshiped the lord.
