² When you leave me today, you will meet two men near Rachel’s tomb,^(A) at Zelzah on the border of Benjamin. They will say to you, ‘The donkeys^(B) you set out to look for have been found. And now your father has stopped thinking about them and is worried^(C) about you. He is asking, “What shall I do about my son?”’

³ “Then you will go on from there until you reach the great tree of Tabor. Three men going up to worship God at Bethel^(D) will meet you there. One will be carrying three young goats, another three loaves of bread, and another a skin of wine. ⁴ They will greet you and offer you two loaves of bread,^(E) which you will accept from them.
