Genesis 24:1-4 ▼

1 Abraham was now old, getting on in years, and the LORD had blessed him in everything.

2 Abraham said to his servant, the elder of his household who managed all he owned, “Place your hand under my thigh,

3 and I will have you swear by the LORD, God of heaven and God of earth, that you will not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites among whom I live,

4 but will go to my land and my family to take a wife for my son Isaac.”
