I know their sufferings, 8 and (C)I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians and (D)to bring them up out of that land to a (E)good and broad land, a land (F)flowing with milk and honey, to the place of (G)the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites. 9 And now, behold, (H)the cry of the people of Israel has come to me, and I have also seen the (I)oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them. 10 (J)Come, I will send you to Pharaoh that you may bring my people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt.”
