Genesis 24:21
World English Bible (WEB)
The man looked steadfastly at her, remaining silent, to know whether the LORD had made his journey prosperous or not.
In context
19 When she had finished giving him a drink, she said, “I will also draw for your camels, until they have finished drinking.”
20 She hurried, and emptied her pitcher into the trough, and ran again to the well to draw, and drew for all his camels.
21 The man looked steadfastly at her, remaining silent, to know whether the LORD had made his journey prosperous or not.
22 As the camels had finished drinking, the man took a golden ring of half a shekel weight, and two bracelets for her hands of ten shekels weight of gold,
23 and said, “Whose daughter are you? Please tell me. Is there room in your father’s house for us to stay?”
