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.”
9 So the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master, and swore to him concerning this matter.
10 Then the servant took ten of his master’s camels and departed, afor all his master’s goods were in his hand. And he arose and went to Mesopotamia, to bthe city of Nahor.
11 And he made his camels kneel down outside the city by a well of water at evening time, the time awhen women go out to draw water.
