But vnto hir brethren and the mother, he gaue spyces. 54 Then he ate and dronke, and the men also that were with him, and caried there all night.But in the mornynge he arose, and sayde: Let me departe vnto my master. 55 Neuerthelesse hir brother and hir mother sayde: Let the damsell tary with vs at the leest ten dayes, and then shall she go. 56 Then sayde he vnto them: holde me not, for the LORDE hath prospered my iourney: let me go, that I maye departe vnto my master. 57 Then sayde they: let vs call the damsell, and axe her, what she sayeth therto. 58 And they called Rebecca, and sayde vnto her: Wilt thou go with this man?And she answered: Yee I wyll go with him. 59 So they let Rebecca their syster go with hir norse and Abrahams seruaunt, and his men. 60 And they blessed Rebecca, and sayde vnto her: Thou art oure syster, growe in to many thousande tymes thousandes, and thy sede possesse the gates of his enemies. 61 So Rebecca gat hir vp wt hir damsels, and satt them vpon the Camels, and wente their waye after the man.
