"I came this day to the spring, and said, 'Yahweh, the God of my master Abraham, if now you do prosper my way which I go--"
— Genesis 24:42, World English Bible
“And I came this day unto the well, and said, O Lord God of my master Abraham, if now thou do prosper my way which I go:”
“And I came this day unto the fountain, and said, O Jehovah, the God of my master Abraham, if now thou do prosper my way which I go: ”
“When I came to the spring today, I prayed,‘O LORD, God of my master Abraham, if you have decided to make my journey successful, may events unfold as follows:”
“And I came today to the well of water, and said: O Lord God of my master, Abraham, if thou hast prospered my way, wherein I now walk,”
“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,”
“And I came this day unto the well, and said, O Lord God of my master Abraham, if now thou do prosper my way which I go:”
I asked my master, 'What if the woman will not follow me?'
He said to me, 'Yahweh, before whom I walk, will send his angel with you, and prosper your way. You shall take a wife for my son of my relatives, and of my father's house.
Then will you be clear from my oath, when you come to my relatives. If they don't give her to you, you shall be clear from my oath.'
I came this day to the spring, and said, 'Yahweh, the God of my master Abraham, if now you do prosper my way which I go--
behold, I am standing by this spring of water. Let it happen, that the maiden who comes forth to draw, to whom I will say, "Please give me a little water from your pitcher to drink,"
and she will tell me, "Drink, and I will also draw for your camels,"--let her be the woman whom Yahweh has appointed for my master's son.'
Before I had finished speaking in my heart, behold, Rebekah came forth with her pitcher on her shoulder. She went down to the spring, and drew. I said to her, 'Please let me drink.'
