but a stream [would] rise from the earth and water the whole face of the ground--

And the angel of Yahweh found her at a spring of water in the wilderness, at the spring by the road of Shur.

Let a little water be brought and wash your feet, and rest under the tree.

Then Abraham rose up early in the morning and took bread and a skin of water and gave [it] to Hagar, putting [it] on her shoulder. And he sent her away with the child, and she went, wandering about in the wilderness, in Beersheba.

And when the water was finished from the skin, she put the child under one of the bushes.

And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. And she went and filled the skin with water and gave a drink to the boy.

Then Abraham complained to Abimelech on account of the well of water that servants of Abimelech had seized.

And he made the camels kneel outside the city at the well of water, at the time of evening, toward the time [the women] went out to draw water.

Behold, I am standing by the spring of water, and the daughters of the men of the city are going out to draw water.

And let it be [that] the girl to whom I shall say, 'Please, offer your jar that I may drink' and [who] says, 'Drink--and I will also water your camels,' she [is the one] you have chosen for your servant, for Isaac. By her I will know that you have shown loyal love to my master."

And the servant ran to meet her. And he said, "Please, let me drink a little of the water from your jar."

When she finished giving him a drink she said, "I will also draw water for your camels until they finish drinking."

And she quickly emptied her jar into the trough and ran again to the well to draw water. And she drew water for all his camels.

And the man came to the house and unloaded the camels. And he gave straw and fodder to the camels, and water to wash his feet and the feet of the men who [were] with him.

Behold, I am standing by the spring of water. Let it be [that] the young woman who comes out to draw water and to whom I say, "Please give me a little water to drink from your jar,"

let her say to me, "Drink; I will also draw water for your camels," she [is] the woman whom Yahweh has appointed for the son of my master.'

I had not yet finished speaking to myself when, behold, Rebekah [was] coming out with her jar on her shoulder. And she went down to the spring and drew water. And I said to her, 'Please give me a drink.'

And Isaac dug again the wells of water which they had dug in the days of his father Abraham, which the Philistines had stopped up after the death of Abraham. And he gave to them {the same names} which his father had given them.

And when the servants of Isaac dug in the valley, they found a well of fresh water there.

Then the herdsmen of Gerar quarreled with the herdsmen of Isaac, saying, "The water is ours." And he called the name of the well Esek, because they contended with him.

And it happened [that] on that same day the servants of Isaac came and told him about the well that they had dug. And they said, "We have found water!"

And he said, "Look, [it is] still {broad daylight}; it is not the time [for] the livestock to be gathered. Give water to the sheep and go, pasture them."

And they said, "We are not able, until all the flocks are gathered. Then the stone is rolled away from the mouth of the well, and we water the sheep."

And he set the branches that he had peeled in front of the flocks, in the troughs [and] in the water containers. And they were in heat when they came to drink.

And Israel journeyed [on] and pitched his tent beyond the tower of Eder.

And they took him and threw him into the pit (the pit [was] empty; there was no water in it).

Then the man brought the men into Joseph's house and he gave them water and washed their feet, and gave fodder to their donkeys.

Unstable as water, you shall not excel [any longer], for you went up upon the bed of your father, then defiled [it]. You went up upon my couch!

The eyes [are] darker than wine, and the teeth whiter than milk.
