01:024:006 And Abraham said unto him, Beware thou that thou bring not my
           son thither again.

01:024:007 The lord God of heaven, which took me from my father’s house,
           and from the land of my kindred, and which spake unto me, and
           that sware unto me, saying, Unto thy seed will I give this
           land; he shall send his angel before thee, and thou shalt take
           a wife unto my son from thence.

01:024:008 And if the woman will not be willing to follow thee, then thou
           shalt be clear from this my oath:  only bring not my son
           thither again.

01:024:009 And the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his
           master, and sware to him concerning that matter.

01:024:010 And the servant took ten camels of the camels of his master,
           and departed; for all the goods of his master were in his
           hand:  and he arose, and went to Mesopotamia, unto the city of
           Nahor.

01:024:011 And he made his camels to kneel down without the city by a
           well of water at the time of the evening, even the time that
           women go out to draw water.

01:024:012 And he said O lord God of my master Abraham, I pray thee, send
           me good speed this day, and shew kindness unto my master
           Abraham.

01:024:013 Behold, I stand here by the well of water; and the daughters
           of the men of the city come out to draw water: 

01:024:014 And let it come to pass, that the damsel to whom I shall say,
           Let down thy pitcher, I pray thee, that I may drink; and she
           shall say, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also:  let
           the same be she that thou hast appointed for thy servant
           Isaac; and thereby shall I know that thou hast shewed kindness
           unto my master.

01:024:015 And it came to pass, before he had done speaking, that,
           behold, Rebekah came out, who was born to Bethuel, son of
           Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham’s brother, with her pitcher
           upon her shoulder.

01:024:016 And the damsel was very fair to look upon, a virgin, neither
           had any man known her:  and she went down to the well, and
           filled her pitcher, and came up.

01:024:017 And the servant ran to meet her, and said, Let me, I pray
           thee, drink a little water of thy pitcher.

01:024:018 And she said, Drink, my lord:  and she hasted, and let down her
           pitcher upon her hand, and gave him drink.

01:024:019 And when she had done giving him drink, she said, I will draw
           water for thy camels also, until they have done drinking.

01:024:020 And she hasted, and emptied her pitcher into the trough, and
           ran again unto the well to draw water, and drew for all his
           camels.
