5 The servant said to him, “Suppose the woman is unwilling to follow me to this land? Should I have your son go back to the land you came from? ”

6 Abraham answered him, “Make sure that you don’t take my son back there.

7 The LORD, the God of heaven, who took me from my father’s house and from my native land, who spoke to me and swore to me, ‘I will give this land to your offspring’ —he will send his angel before you, and you can take a wife for my son from there.

8 If the woman is unwilling to follow you, then you are free from this oath to me, but don’t let my son go back there.”
