Genesis 24:47

And I asked her, and said, Whose daughter art thou? And she said, The daughter of Bethuel, Nahor’s son, whom Milcah bare unto him: and I put the earring upon her face, and the bracelets upon her hands.

KJV

Interrogavique eam, et dixi : Cujus es filia ? Quæ respondit : Filia Bathuelis sum, filii Nachor, quem peperit ei Melcha. Suspendi itaque inaures ad ornandam faciem ejus, et armillas posui in manibus ejus.

Vulgate

καὶ ἠρώτησα αὐτὴν καὶ εἶπα Τίνος θυγάτηρ εἶ; ἀνάγγειλόν μοι. ἡ δὲ ἔφη Θυγάτηρ Βαθουήλ εἰμι ἐγὼ τοῦ υἱοῦ Ναχώρ ὃν ἔτεκεν αὐτῷ Μελχά. καὶ περιέθηκα αὐτῇ τὰ ἐνώτια καὶ τὰ ψέλια ἐπὶ τὰς χεῖρας αὐτῆς·

LXX

And I asked her, and said, Whose daughter art thou? And she said, The daughter of Bethuel, Nahor’s son, whom Milcah bare unto him: and I put the ring upon her nose, and the bracelets upon her hands.
