Genesis 24:37-41
New American Standard Bible 1995
37 (A)My master made me swear, saying, ‘You shall not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I [a]live; 38 but you shall go to my father’s house and to my relatives, and take a wife for my son.’ 39 (B)I said to my master, ‘Suppose the woman does not follow me.’ 40 He said to me, ‘(C)The Lord, before whom I have (D)walked, will send (E)His angel with you to make your journey successful, and you will take a wife for my son from my relatives and from my father’s house; 41 (F)then you will be free from my oath, when you come to my relatives; and if they do not give her to you, you will be free from my oath.’
