23 And he said to her: Whose daughter art thou? tell me: is there any place in thy father’s house to lodge?
24 And she answered: I am the daughter of Bathuel, the son of Melcha, whom she bore to Nachor.

27 Saying: Blessed be the Lord God of my master Abraham, who hath not taken away his mercy and truth from my master, and hath brought me the straight way into the house of my master’s brother.
28 Then the maid ran, and told in her mother’s house all that she had heard.
29 And Rebecca had a brother, named Laban, who went out in haste to the man, to the well.
30 And when he had seen the earrings and bracelets in his sister’s hands, and had heard all that she related, saying, Thus and thus the man spoke to me: he came to the man who stood by the camels, and near to the spring of water,
31 And said to him: Come in, thou blessed of the Lord; why standest thou without? I have prepared the house, and a place for the camels.
32 And he brought him into his lodging; and he unharnessed the camels, and gave straw and hay, and water to wash his feet, and the feet of the men that were come with him.
33 And bread was set before him. But he said: I will not eat, till I tell my message. He answered him: Speak.
