Genesis 24:34-40 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

34. The servant said, “I am Abraham’s servant.

35. The Lord has greatly blessed my master in everything. My master has become a great man. The Lord has given him many flocks of sheep and herds of cattle. He has much silver and gold and many servants. He has many camels and donkeys.

36. Sarah was my master’s wife. When she was very old, she gave birth to a son, and my master has given everything he owns to that son.

37. My master forced me to make a promise to him. He said to me, ‘You must not allow my son to marry a girl from Canaan. We live among these people, but I don’t want him to marry one of the Canaanite girls.

38. So you must promise to go to my father’s country. Go to my family and choose a wife for my son.’

39. I said to my master, ‘Maybe the woman will not come back to this place with me.’

40. But my master said to me, ‘I serve the Lord, and he will send his angel with you and help you. You will find a wife for my son among my people there.
