Rebekah was carrying her water jar on her shoulder. 16 She was very pretty. She was a virgin; she had never had physical relations with a man. She went down to the spring and filled her jar. Then she came back up. 17 The servant ran to her and said, “Please give me a little water from your jar.”

Then she kept running to the well until she had given all the camels enough to drink.
