Exodus 3:6-8
Christian Standard Bible
6 Then he continued, “I am the God of your father,[a] the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.”(A) Moses hid his face because he was afraid to look at God.
7 Then the Lord said, “I have observed the misery of my people in Egypt, and have heard them crying out(B) because of their oppressors. I know about their sufferings, 8 and I have come down to rescue them from the power of the Egyptians and to bring them from that land to a good and spacious land, a land flowing with milk and honey(C)—the territory of the Canaanites, Hethites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites.(D)
