The servant asked him, “What if the woman is not willing to come back with me 1  to this land? Must I then 2  take your son back to the land from which you came?”

NET © Notes

tn Heb “to go after me.”

tn In the Hebrew text the construction is emphatic; the infinitive absolute precedes the imperfect. However, it is difficult to reflect this emphasis in an English translation.
