1 And Avraham was zaken (old), and well stricken in age; and Hashem berach (had blessed) Avraham in all things.
2 And Avraham said unto his eved zekan of his bais, hamoshel (that ruled) over all that he had, Put, now, thy yad under my thigh;
3 And I will make thee swear by Hashem Elohei HaShomayim and Elohei Ha'Aretz, that thou shalt not take an isha unto beni of the Banot HaKena'ani, among whom I dwell:
4 But thou shalt go unto my eretz, and to my moledet, and take an isha unto beni Yitzchak.
5 And the eved said unto him, What if the isha will not be willing to follow me unto HaAretz Hazot: must I needs bring binecha back unto ha'aretz from where thou camest?
6 And Avraham said unto him, Beware thou that thou bring not beni to there!
