Genesis 24:1-4 Common English Bible (CEB)

1. As the days went by and Abraham became older, the Lord blessed Abraham in every way.

2. Abraham said to the oldest servant of his household, who was in charge of everything he owned, "Put your hand under my thigh.

3. By the Lord, God of heaven and earth, give me your word that you won’t choose a wife for my son from the Canaanite women among whom I live.

4. Go to my land and my family and find a wife for my son Isaac there."
