Gen 24:4 but you will go to my country and to my relatives, and take a wife for my son Isaac."
Gen 24:5 The servant said to him, "Suppose the woman is not willing to follow me to this land; should I take your son back to the land from where you came?"
Gen 24:6 Then Abraham said to him, "Beware that you do not take my son back there!
Gen 24:7 "The LORD, the God of heaven, who took me from my father's house and from the land of my birth, and who spoke to me and who swore to me, saying, 'To your descendants I will give this land,' He will send His angel before you, and you will take a wife for my son from there.
Gen 24:8 "But if the woman is not willing to follow you, then you will be free from this my oath; only do not take my son back there."
Gen 24:9 So the servant placed his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master, and swore to him concerning this matter.
Gen 24:10 ¶ Then the servant took ten camels from the camels of his master, and set out with a variety of good things of his master's in his hand; and he arose and went to Mesopotamia, to the city of Nahor.
Gen 24:11 He made the camels kneel down outside the city by the well of water at evening time, the time when women go out to draw water.
Gen 24:12 He said, "O LORD, the God of my master Abraham, please grant me success today, and show lovingkindness to my master Abraham.
Gen 24:13 "Behold, I am standing by the spring, and the daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water;
Gen 24:14 now may it be that the girl to whom I say, 'Please let down your jar so that I may drink,' and who answers, 'Drink, and I will water your camels also'--may she be the one whom You have appointed for Your servant Isaac; and by this I will know that You have shown lovingkindness to my master."
Gen 24:15 ¶ Before he had finished speaking, behold, Rebekah who was born to Bethuel the son of Milcah, the wife of Abraham's brother Nahor, came out with her jar on her shoulder.
Gen 24:16 The girl was very beautiful, a virgin, and no man had had relations with her; and she went down to the spring and filled her jar and came up.
Gen 24:17 Then the servant ran to meet her, and said, "Please let me drink a little water from your jar."
Gen 24:18 She said, "Drink, my lord"; and she quickly lowered her jar to her hand, and gave him a drink.
Gen 24:19 Now when she had finished giving him a drink, she said, "I will draw also for your camels until they have finished drinking."
Gen 24:20 So she quickly emptied her jar into the trough, and ran back to the well to draw, and she drew for all his camels.
Gen 24:21 Meanwhile, the man was gazing at her in silence, to know whether the LORD had made his journey successful or not.
Gen 24:22 ¶ When the camels had finished drinking, the man took a gold ring weighing a half-shekel and two bracelets for her wrists weighing ten shekels in gold,
Gen 24:23 and said, "Whose daughter are you? Please tell me, is there room for us to lodge in your father's house?"
