Genesis 24:54-60

54And he and the men who were with him ate and drank and stayed all night. Then they arose in the morning, and he said, “Send me away to my master.”

55But her brother and her mother said, “Let the young woman stay with us a few days, at least ten; after that she may go.”

56And he said to them, “Do not hinder me, since the Lord has prospered my way; send me away so that I may go to my master.”

57So they said, “We will call the young woman and ask her personally.”

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

59So they sent away Rebekah their sister and her nurse, and Abraham’s servant and his men.

60And they blessed Rebekah and said to her: “Our sister, may you become The mother of thousands of ten thousands; And may your descendants possess The gates of those who hate them.”
