42
And I came today to the water-spring, and I said, O Lord, the God of my master Abraham, if it is your purpose to give a good outcome to my journey,
43
Let it come about that, while I am waiting here by the water-spring, if a girl comes to get water and I say to her, Give me a little water from your vessel, and she says,
44
Take a drink, and I will get water for your camels; let her be the woman marked out by the Lord for my master's son.
45
And even while I was saying this to myself, Rebekah came out with her vessel on her arm; and she went down to the spring to get water; and I said to her, Give me a drink.
46
And straight away she took down her vessel from her arm, and said, Take a drink, and I will get water for your camels.
