Deuteronomy 26:5-7

Jubilee Bible 2000

⁵ Then thou shalt speak and say before the LORD thy God, My father, the Syrian, perishing of hunger went down into Egypt and sojourned there with a few and became there a nation, great, mighty, and many;

⁶ and the Egyptians mistreated us and afflicted us and laid upon us hard bondage.

⁷ And when we cried unto the LORD God of our fathers, the LORD heard our voice and looked on our affliction and our labour and our oppression.
