²⁴ But ^(A)I have said to you, ‘You shall inherit their land, and I will give it to you to possess, a land ^(B)flowing with milk and honey.’ I am the Lord your God, ^(C)who has separated you from the peoples.

² For ^(A)you are a people holy to the Lord your God, and the Lord has chosen you to be a people for his treasured possession, out of all the peoples who are on the face of the earth.

⁶ “For ^(A)you are a people holy to the Lord your God. The Lord your God has chosen you to be ^(B)a people for his treasured possession, out of all the peoples who are on the face of the earth.

⁸ I will bring you into ^(A)the land that I ^(B)swore to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob. I will give it to you for a possession. ^(C)I am the Lord.’”

¹⁷ and I promise that ^(A)I will bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt to the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, a land ^(B)flowing with milk and honey.”’

⁸ and ^(A)I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians and ^(B)to bring them up out of that land to a ^(C)good and broad land, a land ^(D)flowing with milk and honey, to the place of ^(E)the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites.

^26 (A)You shall be holy to me, ^(B)for I the Lord am holy and have separated you from the peoples, that you should be mine.

¹⁶ For how shall it be known that I have found favor in your sight, I and your people? ^(A)Is it not in your going with us, ^(B)so that we are distinct, I and your people, from every other people on the face of the earth?”

⁹ But you are ^(A)a chosen race, ^(B)a royal ^(C)priesthood, ^(D)a holy nation, ^(E)a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you ^(F)out of darkness into ^(G)his marvelous light.
