Then I’ll let you know what I learn. May GOD do his worst to me if I let you down! If my father still intends to kill you, I’ll tell you and get you out of here in one piece. And GOD be with you as he’s been with my father! If I make it through this alive, continue to be my covenant friend. And if I die, keep the covenant friendship with my family—forever.

Then I’ll send off my servant, ‘Go find the arrows.’ If I yell after the servant, ‘The arrows are on this side! Retrieve them!’ that’s the signal that you can return safely—as GOD lives, not a thing to fear! But if I yell, ‘The arrows are farther out!’ then run for it—GOD wants you out of here! Regarding all the things we’ve discussed, remember that GOD’s in on this with us to the very end!”
