Note 1 topic: writing-politeness
הִנֵּ֛ה אָנֹכִ֥י נִצָּ֖ב עַל
see/lo/see! I standing on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in
Make sure in your translation that what Abraham’s servant says here to Yahweh sounds polite and respectful, not rude, demanding, or complaining. Also, he is not telling God something that God did not already know. Alternate translation: “Look here I am, standing near” or “As you know, I am standing here beside”
עֵ֣ין הַמָּ֑יִם
spring the=waters
The phrase spring of water (here and in verse 16) refers to the same well that is referred to in verses 11 and 20, which means that this was probably a spring-fed well. Some translation teams use only one term to refer to this spring or well throughout this chapter in order to prevent confusion. Decide what is best in your language. Alternate translation: “this spring-fed well,”
וּבְנוֹת֙ אַנְשֵׁ֣י הָעִ֔יר
and,daughters men_of the=city
Alternate translation: “and the daughters of the townspeople” or “and the young women of the city”
יֹצְאֹ֖ת לִשְׁאֹ֥ב מָֽיִם
coming_out to,draw water
See how you translated “draw/get water” in verse 11. Alternate translation: “are coming out here to get water.”
24:1-67 Isaac’s marriage to Rebekah ensured that God’s plan would continue into the next generation. God showed covenant faithfulness by working through his faithful people (24:12, 27, 49).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
