55 But her brother and her mother said, “aLet the girl stay with us a few days, say ten; afterward she may go.”

56 He said to them, “Do not delay me, since athe Lord has prospered my way. Send me away that I may go to my master.”

57 And they said, “We will call the girl and 1consult her wishes.”

58 Then they called Rebekah and said to her, “Will you go with this man?” And she said, “I will go.”

59 Thus they sent away their sister Rebekah and aher nurse with Abraham’s servant and his men.

60 They blessed Rebekah and said to her,

“May you, our sister,

aBecome thousands of ten thousands,

And may byour 1descendants possess

The gate of those who hate them.”

61 Then Rebekah arose with her maids, and they mounted the camels and followed the man. So the servant took Rebekah and departed.
