Genesis 24:15


And it came to pass, before he had done speaking, that, behold, Rebekah [Rebecca] came out, who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, with her pitcher upon her shoulder.

Geneva Bible - And now before he had left speaking, behold, (h) Rebekah came out, the daughter of Bethuel, son of Milcah the wife of Nahor Abraham’s brother, and her pitcher upon her shoulder.

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.
