45. "Before I finished praying in my heart, Rebekah came out. She had a jar on her shoulder. She went down to the spring and got water. I said to her, 'Please give me a drink.'
46. "She quickly lowered her jar from her shoulder. She said, 'Have a drink. And I'll get water for your camels too.' So I drank. She also got water for the camels.
47. "I asked her, 'Whose daughter are you?' "She said, 'The daughter of Bethuel. He's the son Milcah had by Nahor.' "Then I put the ring in her nose. I put the bracelets on her arms.
48. And I bowed down and worshiped the Lord. I praised the Lord, the God of my master Abraham. He had led me on the right road. He had led me to get for my master's son the granddaughter of my master's brother.
49. "Now will you be kind and faithful to my master? If you will, tell me. And if you won't, tell me. Then I'll know which way to turn."
50. Laban and Bethuel answered, "The Lord has done all of this. We can't say anything to you one way or the other.
51. Here is Rebekah. Take her and go. Let her become the wife of your master's son, just as the Lord has said."
52. Abraham's servant heard what they said. So he bowed down to the Lord with his face to the ground.
53. He brought out gold and silver jewelry. He brought out articles of clothing. He gave all of it to Rebekah. He also gave expensive gifts to her brother and her mother.
54. Then Abraham's servant and the men who were with him ate and drank. They spent the night there. They got up the next morning. Abraham's servant said, "Send me back to my master."
55. But her brother and her mother replied, "Let the young woman stay with us ten days or so. Then you can go."
56. But he said to them, "Don't make me wait. The Lord has given me success on my journey. Send me on my way so I can go to my master."
