²⁴ God heard their groaning and he remembered^(A) his covenant^(B) with Abraham, with Isaac and with Jacob.

⁸ So I have come down^(A) to rescue them from the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land into a good and spacious land,^(B) a land flowing with milk and honey^(C)—the home of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites^(D) and Jebusites.^(E)

¹⁵ God also said to Moses, “Say to the Israelites, ‘The Lord,^[a] the God of your fathers^(A)—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob^(B)—has sent me to you.’

¹⁶ “Go, assemble the elders^(E) of Israel and say to them, ‘The Lord, the God of your fathers—the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob^(F)—appeared to me and said: I have watched over you and have seen^(G) what has been done to you in Egypt. ¹⁷ And I have promised to bring you up out of your misery in Egypt^(H) into the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites—a land flowing with milk and honey.’^(I)

² God also said to Moses, “I am the Lord.^{(A) 3} I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob as God Almighty,^[a](B) but by my name^(C) the Lord^[b](D) I did not make myself fully known to them. ⁴ I also established my covenant^(E) with them to give them the land^(F) of Canaan, where they resided as foreigners.^{(G) 5} Moreover, I have heard the groaning^(H) of the Israelites, whom the Egyptians are enslaving, and I have remembered my covenant.^(I)

⁶ “Therefore, say to the Israelites: ‘I am the Lord, and I will bring you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians.^(J) I will free you from being slaves to them, and I will redeem^(K) you with an outstretched arm^(L) and with mighty acts of judgment.^{(M) 7} I will take you as my own people, and I will be your God.^(N) Then you will know^(O) that I am the Lord your God, who brought you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians. ⁸ And I will bring you to the land^(P) I swore^(Q) with uplifted hand^(R) to give to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob.^(S) I will give it to you as a possession. I am the Lord.’”^(T)

⁵ When the Lord brings you into the land of the Canaanites,^(A) Hittites, Amorites, Hivites and Jebusites^(B)—the land he swore to your ancestors to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey^(C)—you are to observe this ceremony^(D) in this month:

¹¹ “After the Lord brings you into the land of the Canaanites^(A) and gives it to you, as he promised on oath^(B) to you and your ancestors,^(C)

⁴ ‘You yourselves have seen what I did to Egypt,^(A) and how I carried you on eagles’ wings^(B) and brought you to myself.^{(C) 5} Now if you obey me fully^(D) and keep my covenant,^(E) then out of all nations you will be my treasured possession.^(F) Although the whole earth^(G) is mine, ⁶ you^[a] will be for me a kingdom of priests^(H) and a holy nation.’^(I) These are the words you are to speak to the Israelites.”

33 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Leave this place, you and the people you brought up out of Egypt, and go up to the land I promised on oath^(A) to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, saying, ‘I will give it to your descendants.’^(B)

²⁴ But I said to you, “You will possess their land; I will give it to you as an inheritance, a land flowing with milk and honey.”^(A) I am the Lord your God, who has set you apart from the nations.^(B)
