Genesis 24:1-27

Now Abraham was old, well advanced in years; and the LORD had blessed
Abraham in all things.  Abraham said to his servant, the oldest of his
house, who had charge of all that he had, "Put your hand under my thigh
and I will make you swear by the LORD, the God of heaven and earth, that
you will not get a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites,
among whom I live, but will go to my country and to my kindred and get a
wife for my son Isaac."  The servant said to him, "Perhaps the woman may
not be willing to follow me to this land; must I then take your son back
to the land from which you came?"  Abraham said to him, "See to it that
you do not take my son back there.  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 swore to me, 'To your offspring I will give this land,' he will
send his angel before you, and you shall take a wife for my son from
there.  But if the woman is not willing to follow you, then you will be
free from this oath of mine; only you must not take my son back there."
So the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master and
swore to him concerning this matter.

Then the servant took ten of his master's camels and departed, taking all
kinds of choice gifts from his master; and he set out and went to Aram
naharaim, to the city of Nahor.  He made the camels kneel down outside the
city by the well of water; it was toward evening, the time when women go
out to draw water.  And he said, "O LORD, God of my master Abraham, please
grant me success today and show steadfast love to my master Abraham.  I am
standing here by the spring of water, and the daughters of the townspeople
are coming out to draw water.  Let the girl to whom I shall say, 'Please
offer your jar that I may drink,' and who shall say, 'Drink, and I will
water your camels' — let her be the one whom you have appointed for your
servant Isaac.  By this I shall know that you have shown steadfast love to
my master."

Before he had finished speaking, there was Rebekah, who was born to
Bethuel son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, coming out
with her water jar on her shoulder.  The girl was very fair to look upon,
a virgin, whom no man had known.  She went down to the spring, filled her
jar, and came up.  Then the servant ran to meet her and said, "Please let
me sip a little water from your jar."  "Drink, my lord," she said, and
quickly lowered her jar upon her hand and gave him a drink.  When she had
finished giving him a drink, she said, "I will draw for your camels also,
until they have finished drinking."  So she quickly emptied her jar into
the trough and ran again to the well to draw, and she drew for all his
camels.  The man gazed at her in silence to learn whether or not the LORD
had made his journey successful.

When the camels had finished drinking, the man took a gold nose ring
weighing a half shekel, and two bracelets for her arms weighing ten gold
shekels, and said, "Tell me whose daughter you are.  Is there room in your
father's house for us to spend the night?"  She said to him, "I am the
daughter of Bethuel son of Milcah, whom she bore to Nahor."  She added,
"We have plenty of straw and fodder and a place to spend the night."  The
man bowed his head and worshiped the LORD27 and said, "Blessed be the
LORD, the God of my master Abraham, who has not forsaken his steadfast
love and his faithfulness toward my master.  As for me, the LORD has led
me on the way to the house of my master's kin."
