Genesis 24:21 in Context — Genesis 24
19 Quand elle eut achevé de lui donner à boire, elle dit: Je puiserai aussi pour tes chameaux, jusqu’à ce qu’ils aient assez bu.
20 Et elle s’empressa de vider sa cruche dans l’abreuvoir, et courut encore au puits pour puiser; et elle puisa pour tous les chameaux.
21 L’homme la regardait avec étonnement et sans rien dire, pour voir si l’Éternel faisait réussir son voyage, ou non.
22 Quand les chameaux eurent fini de boire, l’homme prit un anneau d’or, du poids d’un demi-sicle, et deux bracelets, du poids de dix sicles d’or.
23 Et il dit: De qui es-tu fille? Dis-le moi, je te prie. Y a-t-il dans la maison de ton père de la place pour passer la nuit?
