Shall I bring thy sonne againe vnto the lande from whence thou camest? 6 To whom Abraham answered, Beware that thou bring not my sonne thither againe. 7 The Lord God of heauen, who tooke me from my fathers house, and from the land where I was borne, and that spake vnto me, and that sware vnto me, saying, Vnto thy seede wil I giue this land, he shall send his Angel before thee, and thou shalt take a wife vnto my sonne fro thence. 8 Neuertheles if the woman wil not followe thee, then shalt thou bee discharged of this mine othe: onely bring not my sonne thither againe. 9 Then the seruant put his hand vnder the thigh of Abraham his master, and sware to him for this matter. 10 So the seruant tooke ten camels of the camels of his master, and departed: (for he had all his masters goods in his hand:) and so he arose, and went to Aram Naharaim, vnto the citie of Nahor. 11 And he made his camels to lye downe without the citie by a well of water, at euentide about the time that the women come out to draw water. 12 And he said, O Lord God of my master Abraham, I beseech thee, send me good speede this day, & shew mercy vnto my master Abraha. 13 Lo, I stand by the well of water, whiles the mens daughters of this citie come out to drawe water. 14 Graunt therefore that ye maide, to whom I say, Bowe downe thy pitcher, I pray thee, that I may drinke: if she say, Drinke, and I will giue thy camels drinke also: may be she that thou hast ordeined for thy seruant Izhak: and thereby shall I know that thou hast shewed mercy on my master.
