Abraham said to him, See to it that you do not take my son back there.

The Lord, the God of heaven, Who took me from my father’s house, from the land of my family and my birth, Who spoke to me and swore to me, saying, To your offspring I will give this land—He will send His [a]Angel before you, and you will take a wife from there for my son.
