Genesis 24:54-56
The Message
52-54 When Abraham’s servant heard their decision, he bowed in worship before God. Then he brought out gifts of silver and gold and clothing and gave them to Rebekah. He also gave expensive gifts to her brother and mother. He and his men had supper and spent the night. But first thing in the morning they were up. He said, “Send me back to my master.”
55 Her brother and mother said, “Let the girl stay a while, say another ten days, and then go.”
56 He said, “Oh, don’t make me wait! God has worked everything out so well—send me off to my master.”
