Genesis 24:21-23
International Standard Version
21 The man stared at her in silence, waiting to see whether or not the Lord had made his journey successful. 22 When the camels had finished drinking, the man took out a gold nose ring weighing a half shekel and two bracelets for her wrists, weighing 10 shekels and presented them to her.[a]
23 He asked her, “Whose daughter are you? Please tell me, is there room in your father’s house for us to spend the night?”
