He said, "Yahweh, the God of my master Abraham, please give me success this day, and show kindness to my master Abraham.

Sarah, my master's wife, bore a son to my master when she was old. He has given all that he has to him.

As a shepherd seeks out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered abroad, so will I seek out my sheep; and I will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.

As for you, O my flock, thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I judge between sheep and sheep, the rams and the male goats.
