Genesis 24:3 in Context — Genesis 24
1 Y ABRAHAM era viejo, y bien entrado en días; y Jehová había bendecido á Abraham en todo.
2 Y dijo Abraham á un criado suyo, el [más] viejo de su casa, que era el que gobernaba en todo lo que tenía: Pon ahora tu mano debajo de mi muslo,
3 Y te juramentaré por Jehová, Dios de los cielos y Dios de la tierra, que no has de tomar mujer para mi hijo de las hijas de los Cananeos, entre los cuales yo habito;
4 Sino que irás á mi tierra y á mi parentela, y tomarás mujer para mi hijo Isaac.
5 Y el criado le respondió: Quizá la mujer no querrá venir en pos de mí á esta tierra: ¿volveré, pues, tu hijo á la tierra de donde saliste?
