Genesis 24:14


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.

Geneva Bible - (g) Grant therefore that the maid, to whom I say, Bow down thy pitcher, I pray thee, that I may drink, if she say, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also, may be she that thou hast ordained for thy servant Isaac; and thereby shall I know that thou hast shewed mercy on my master.
(g) The servant moved by God's Spirit desired to be assured by a sign, whether God prospered his
journey or not.
