UTN uW Translation Notes:

וַ⁠יַּשְׁבִּעֵ֥⁠נִי אֲדֹנִ֖⁠י

and,swear,me my=master/master

See how you translated swear in verse 3, and “swore” in verses 7 and 9. Alternate translation: “Before I came here, my master had me vow to do something for him,” or “Before I came here, my master asked me to make an unbreakable promise to him,”

Note 1 topic: writing-quotations

לֵ⁠אמֹ֑ר

to=say

Consider whether or not it is better in your language to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “and he said to me,” or “This is what he said to me:”

לֹא תִקַּ֤ח אִשָּׁה֙ לִ⁠בְנִ֔⁠י

not take woman/wife for,son,my

See how you translated a similar phrase in verse 3. Alternate translation: “You must not get a woman for my son to marry”

מִ⁠בְּנוֹת֙ הַֽ⁠כְּנַעֲנִ֔י

from,daughters the,Canaanites

Alternate translation: “from among the Canaanite women”

אָנֹכִ֖י יֹשֵׁ֥ב בְּ⁠אַרְצֽ⁠וֹ

I was_sitting in/on/at/with,land,him

As in verse 3, make sure your translation does not sound like Abraham lived by himself among the Canaanites; his family and servants also lived among them with him. Alternate translation: “whom we live among in this land”
