American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
And the servant took ten camels, of the camels of his master, and departed, {Or, for all the goods of his master were in his hand}having all goodly things of his master's in his hand: and he arose, and went to {Hebrew: Aram-naharaim, that is, Aram of the two rivers.}Mesopotamia, unto the city of Nahor.
And he made the camels to kneel down without the city by the well of water at the time of evening, the time that women go out to draw water.
And he said, O Jehovah, the God of my master Abraham, send me, I pray thee, good speed this day, and show kindness unto my master Abraham.
Behold, I am standing by the fountain of water; and the daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water:
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 showed kindness unto my master.
In all thy ways acknowledge him,And he will {Or, make straight (or, plain)}direct thy paths.
I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go:I will counsel thee with mine eye upon thee.
Teach me thy way, O Jehovah;And lead me in a plain path,Because of {Or, them that lie in wait for me}mine enemies.
that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the {Greek: laver.}washing of water with the word,
House and riches are an inheritance from fathers;But a prudent wife is from Jehovah.
