Deuteronomy 7:8-10

International Children’s Bible

⁸ But the Lord chose you because he loved you. And he kept his promise to your ancestors. So he brought you out of Egypt by his great power. He brought you back from the land of slavery. He bought you back from the power of the king of Egypt. ⁹ So know that the Lord your God is God. He is the faithful God. He will keep his agreement of love for a thousand lifetimes. He does this for people who love him and obey his commands. ¹⁰ But he will pay back those people who hate him. He will destroy them. And he will not be slow to pay back those who hate him.
