Colossians 3:22-4:1
Slaves, obey your earthly masters in every respect, not only when they are watching– like those who are strictly people- pleasers– but with a sincere heart, fearing the Lord.Whatever you are doing, work at it with enthusiasm, as to the Lord and not for people,because you know that you will receive your inheritance from the Lord as the reward. Serve the Lord Christ.For the one who does wrong will be repaid for his wrong, and there are no exceptions.Masters, treat your slaves with justice and fairness, because you know that you also have a master in heaven.

Must I then take your son back to the land from which you came?”“ Be careful never to take my son back there!” Abraham told him.“ The LORD, the God of heaven, who took me from my father’s house and the land of my relatives, promised me with a solemn oath,‘ To your descendants I will give this land.’ He will send his angel before you so that you may find a wife for my son from there.But if the woman is not willing to come back with you, you will be free from this oath of mine. But you must not take my son back there!”So the servant placed his hand under the thigh of his master Abraham and gave his solemn promise he would carry out his wishes.Then the servant took ten of his master’s camels and departed with all kinds of gifts from his master at his disposal. He journeyed to the region of Aram Naharaim and the city of Nahor.He made the camels kneel down by the well outside the city. It was evening, the time when the women would go out to draw water.He prayed,“ O LORD, God of my master Abraham, guide me today. Be faithful to my master Abraham.Here I am, standing by the spring, and the daughters of the people who live in the town are coming out to draw water.I will say to a young woman,‘ Please lower your jar so I may drink.’ May the one you have chosen for your servant Isaac reply,‘ Drink, and I’ll give your camels water too.’ In this way I will know that you have been faithful to my master.”

He said,‘ You must not acquire a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I am living,but you must go to the family of my father and to my relatives to find a wife for my son.’But I said to my master,‘ What if the woman does not want to go with me?’He answered,‘ The LORD, before whom I have walked, will send his angel with you. He will make your journey a success and you will find a wife for my son from among my relatives, from my father’s family.You will be free from your oath if you go to my relatives and they will not give her to you. Then you will be free from your oath.’When I came to the spring today, I prayed,‘ O LORD, God of my master Abraham, if you have decided to make my journey successful, may events unfold as follows:Here I am, standing by the spring. When the young woman goes out to draw water, I’ll say,“ Give me a little water to drink from your jug.”Then she will reply to me,“ Drink, and I’ll draw water for your camels too.” May that woman be the one whom the LORD has chosen for my master’s son.’“ Before I finished praying in my heart, along came Rebekah with her water jug on her shoulder! She went down to the spring and drew water. So I said to her,‘ Please give me a drink.’She quickly lowered her jug from her shoulder and said,‘ Drink, and I’ll give your camels water too.’ So I drank, and she also gave the camels water.Then I asked her,‘ Whose daughter are you?’ She replied,‘ The daughter of Bethuel the son of Nahor, whom Milcah bore to Nahor.’ I put the ring in her nose and the bracelets on her wrists.Then I bowed down and worshiped the LORD. I praised the LORD, the God of my master Abraham, who had led me on the right path to find the granddaughter of my master’s brother for his son.Now, if you will show faithful love to my master, tell me. But if not, tell me as well, so that I may go on my way.”
