“O LORD, God of my master Abraham,” he prayed, “please grant me success today, and show kindness to my master Abraham.”
Genesis 24:12 (BSB)
Context Reading
10Then the servant took ten of his master’s camels and departed with all manner of good things from his master in hand. And he set out for Nahor’s hometown in Aram-naharaim. 11As evening approached, he made the camels kneel down near the well outside the town at the time when the women went out to draw water. 12“O LORD, God of my master Abraham,” he prayed, “please grant me success today, and show kindness to my master Abraham. 13Here I am, standing beside the spring, and the daughters of the townspeople are coming out to draw water. 14Now may it happen that the girl to whom I say, ‘Please let down your jar that I may drink,’ and who responds, ‘Drink, and I will water your camels as well’ — let her be the one You have appointed for Your servant Isaac. By this I will know that You have shown kindness to my master.”
