הִנֵּֽה־רִבְקָ֥ה לְפָנֶ֖יךָ קַ֣ח וָלֵ֑ךְ וּתְהִ֤י אִשָּׁה֙ לְבֶן־אֲדֹנֶ֔יךָ כַּאֲשֶׁ֖ר דִּבֶּ֥ר יְהוָֽה׃
Lihatlah, Ribka ada di hadapanmu. Bawalah dia dan pergilah, supaya ia menjadi istri anak tuanmu, seperti yang telah difirmankan Yang Mahakekal.”
Pirkei DeRabbi Eliezer
Laban and Bethuel answered: Since (this) word has come forth from the mouth of the Almighty, we cannot prevent it, as it is said, "Then Laban and Bethuel answered and said, The thing proceedeth from the Lord: we cannot speak unto thee bad or good" (Gen. 24:50). "Behold, Rebecca is before thee; take her and go" (Gen. 24:51).

“Laban and Betuel answered and said: The matter has come forth from the Lord; we can speak to you neither bad nor good” (Genesis 24:50).
“Behold, Rebecca is before you, take her and go, and she will be a wife for your master’s son, as the Lord has spoken” (Genesis 24:51).
“Laban and Betuel answered and said: The matter has come forth from the Lord” – from where did it come forth? Rabbi Yehoshua bar Neḥemya in the name of Rabbi Ḥanina bar Yitzḥak: It came forth from Mount Moriah.39It was immediately after Abraham’s binding of Isaac on Mount Moriah that Abraham was informed about Rebecca’s birth (Genesis 22:20–23). Her marriage to Isaac was foreordained from that point. The Rabbis say: From where did it come forth? “She will be a wife for your master’s son, as the Lord has spoken.”40The marriage of Isaac and Rebecca was not foreordained upon her birth. The match between them was ordained in Heaven only now.
