Genesis 24:4 in context

  1. 2And Abraham said unto his servant, the elder of his house, that ruled over all that he had, Put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh:
  2. 3and I will make thee swear by Jehovah, the God of heaven and the God of the earth, that thou wilt not take a wife for my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I dwell:
  3. 4but thou shalt go unto my country, and to my kindred, and take a wife for my son Isaac.
  4. 5And the servant said unto him, Peradventure the woman will not be willing to follow me unto this land: must I needs bring thy son again unto the land from whence thou camest?
  5. 6And Abraham said unto him, Beware thou that thou bring not my son thither again.
