Genesis 24:11
24:11 He made the camels kneel down by the well
outside the city. It was evening,
the time when the women would go out to draw water.
Genesis 24:14-20
24:14 I will say to a young woman, ‘Please lower your jar so I may drink.’ May the one you have chosen for your servant Isaac reply, ‘Drink, and I’ll give your camels water too.’
In this way I will know that you have been faithful to my master.”
24:15 Before he had finished praying, there came Rebekah with her water jug on her shoulder. She was the daughter of Bethuel son of Milcah (Milcah was the wife of Abraham’s brother Nahor).
24:16 Now the young woman was very beautiful. She was a virgin; no man had ever had sexual relations with her. She went down to the spring, filled her jug, and came back up.
24:17 Abraham’s servant ran to meet her and said, “Please give me a sip of water from your jug.”
24:18 “Drink, my lord,” she replied, and quickly lowering her jug to her hands, she gave him a drink.
24:19 When she had done so, she said, “I’ll draw water for your camels too, until they have drunk as much as they want.”
24:20 She quickly emptied her jug into the watering trough and ran back to the well to draw more water until she had drawn enough for all his camels.
Genesis 29:6-10
29:6 “Is he well?”
Jacob asked. They replied, “He is well.
Now look, here comes his daughter Rachel with the sheep.”
29:7 Then Jacob
said, “Since it is still the middle of the day,
it is not time for the flocks to be gathered. You should water the sheep and then go and let them graze some more.”
29:8 “We can’t,” they said, “until all the flocks are gathered and the stone is rolled off the mouth of the well. Then we water
the sheep.”
29:9 While he was still speaking with them, Rachel arrived with her father’s sheep, for she was tending them.
29:10 When Jacob saw Rachel, the daughter of his uncle Laban, and the sheep of his uncle Laban, he went over and rolled the stone off the mouth of the well and watered the sheep of his uncle Laban.

by the waters of a flood;
never again will a flood destroy the earth.”
