Genesis 24:47-60 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

47. And I asked her, and said, Whose daughter art thou? And she said, The daughter of Bethuel, Nahor's son, whom Milcah bore to him. And I put the ring on her nose, and the bracelets on her hands.

48. And I stooped, and bowed down before Jehovah; and I blessed Jehovah, God of my master Abraham, who has led me the right way to take my master's brother's daughter for his son.

49. And now, if ye will deal kindly and truly with my master, tell me; and if not, tell me; and I will turn to the right hand or to the left.

50. And Laban and Bethuel answered and said, The thing proceeds from Jehovah: we cannot speak to thee bad or good.

51. Behold, Rebecca is before thee: take her, and go away; and let her be wife of thy master's son, as Jehovah has said.

52. And it came to pass, when Abraham's servant heard their words, that he bowed down to the earth before Jehovah.

53. And the servant brought forth silver articles, and gold articles, and clothing, and he gave them to Rebecca; and he gave to her brother, and to her mother, precious things.

54. And they ate and drank, he and the men that were with him, and lodged. And they rose up in the morning; and he said, Send me away to my master.

55. And her brother and her mother said, Let the maiden abide with us some days, or say ten; after that she shall go.

56. And he said to them, Do not hinder me, seeing Jehovah has prospered my way: send me away, and I will go to my master.

57. And they said, Let us call the maiden and inquire at her mouth.

58. And they called Rebecca and said to her, Wilt thou go with this man? And she said, I will go.

59. And they sent away Rebecca their sister, and her nurse, and Abraham's servant, and his men.

60. And they blessed Rebecca, and said to her, Thou art our sister; mayest thou become thousands of tens of thousands; and may thy seed possess the gate of their enemies!
