3 and I will make you aswear by the Lord, the God of heaven and the God of the earth, that byou will not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I dwell;
4 abut you shall go bto my country and to my family, and take a wife for my son Isaac.”
5 And the servant said to him, “Perhaps the woman will not be willing to follow me to this land. Must I take your son back to the land from which you came?”
6 But Abraham said to him, “Beware that you do not take my son back there.
7 The Lord God of heaven, who atook me from my father’s house and from the land of my family, and who spoke to me and swore to me, saying, b‘To your descendants I give this land,’ cHe will send His angel before you, and you shall take a wife for my son from there.
8 And if the woman is not willing to follow you, then ayou will be released from this oath; only do not take my son back there.”
