In context

45 And even while I was saying this to myself, Rebekah came out with her vessel on her arm; and she went down to the spring to get water; and I said to her, Give me a drink.

46 And straight away she took down her vessel from her arm, and said, Take a drink, and I will get water for your camels.

47 And questioning her, I said, Whose daughter are you? And she said, The daughter of Bethuel, the son of Nahor, and Milcah his wife. Then I put the ring on her nose and the ornaments on her hands.

48 And with bent head I gave worship and praise to the Lord, the God of my master Abraham, by whom I had been guided in the right way, to get the daughter of my master's brother for his son.

49 And now, say if you will do what is good and right for my master or not, in order that it may be clear to me what I have to do.

50 Then Laban and Bethuel said in answer, This is the Lord's doing: it is not for us to say Yes or No to you.

51 See, here is Rebekah: take her and go, and let her be your master's son's wife, as the Lord has said.
