54. Then Abraham's servant and the men with him ate and drank, and spent the night there. When they got up in the morning, he said, “Let me go back to my master.”

55. But Rebecca's brother and her mother said, “Let her stay with us a week or ten days, and then she may go.”

56. But he said, “Don't make us stay. The Lord has made my journey a success; let me go back to my master.”

57. They answered, “Let's call her and find out what she has to say.”
