Genesis 24:56

And he said unto them, Hinder me not, seeing the LORD hath prospered my way; send me away that I may go to my master.

And he said {H559} unto them, Hinder me {H309} not, seeing the LORD {H3068} hath prospered {H6743} my way {H1870}; send me away {H7971} that I may go {H3212} to my master {H113}.

He answered them, "Don't delay me, since ADONAI has made my trip successful, but let me go back to my master."

But he replied, “Do not delay me, since the LORD has made my journey a success. Send me on my way so that I may go to my master.”

And he said unto them, Hinder me not, seeing Jehovah hath prospered my way; send me away that I may go to my master.
