Genesis 24:15 in Context — Genesis 24

13 Voici, je me tiens près de la source d’eau, et les filles des gens de la ville vont sortir pour puiser de l’eau.

14 Que la jeune fille à laquelle je dirai: Penche ta cruche, je te prie, pour que je boive, et qui répondra: Bois, et je donnerai aussi à boire à tes chameaux, soit celle que tu as destinée à ton serviteur Isaac! Et par là je connaîtrai que tu uses de bonté envers mon seigneur.

15 Il n’avait pas encore fini de parler que sortit, sa cruche sur l’épaule, Rebecca, née de Bethuel, fils de Milca, femme de Nachor, frère d’Abraham.

16 C’était une jeune fille très belle de figure; elle était vierge, et aucun homme ne l’avait connue. Elle descendit à la source, remplit sa cruche, et remonta.

17 Le serviteur courut au-devant d’elle, et dit: Laisse-moi boire, je te prie, un peu d’eau de ta cruche.
