When they got up in the morning, he said, |Let me go back to my master.| 55 Her brother and mother replied, |Let the girl stay with us ten days or so. After that she may go.| 56 He said to them, |Don't delay me now that the LORD has made my trip successful. Let me go back to my master.| 57 So they said, |We'll call the girl and ask her.| 58 They called for Rebekah and asked her, |Will you go with this man?| She said, |Yes, I'll go.| 59 So they let their sister Rebekah and her nurse go with Abraham's servant and his men. 60 They gave Rebekah a blessing: |May you, our sister, become the mother of many thousands of children. May your descendants take possession of their enemies' cities.| 61 Then Rebekah and her maids left. Riding on camels, they followed the man. The servant took Rebekah and left.
