Deuteronomy 9:25-27

Expanded Bible

²⁵ The Lord had said he would destroy you, so I threw myself down in front of him for those forty days and forty nights. ²⁶ I prayed to the Lord and said, “Lord God, do not destroy your people, your ·own people [^Linheritance], whom you ·freed [ransomed; redeemed] and brought out of Egypt by your great power and ·strength [^Lstrong hand]. ²⁷ Remember your servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Don’t look at how ·stubborn [hard] these people are, and don’t look at their sin and evil.
