Furthermore I have (B)heard the groaning of the sons of Israel, because the Egyptians are holding them in bondage, and I have remembered My covenant.

I will also (E)redeem you with (F)an outstretched arm, and with great judgments. Then I will take you [b](G)as My people, and (H)I will be [c]your God; and (I)you shall know that I am the Lord your God, who brought you out from under the labors of the Egyptians. I will bring you to the land which (J)I [d]swore to give to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and (K)I will give it to you as a possession; (L)I am the Lord.’”
