Deuteronomy 4:37-39

Expanded Bible

³⁷ Because the Lord loved your ·ancestors [fathers; Gen. 12:1–3], he chose you, their ·descendants [^Lseed], and he brought you out of Egypt himself by his great strength. ³⁸ He ·forced [dispossessed] nations out of their land ahead of you, nations that were bigger and stronger than you were. The Lord did this so he could bring you into their land and give it to you as your ·own [^Linheritance], ·and this land is yours today [^Las it is this day].

³⁹ Know and ·believe [take to heart; bear in mind] today that the Lord is God. He is God in heaven above and on the earth below. There is no other god!
