36 And Sarah my master's wife bore a son to my master when she was old; and he has given him all that he has.

37 My master made me swear, saying, "You shall not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I live;

38 but you shall go to my father's house, to my kindred, and get a wife for my son.'
