Deuteronomy 9:27-29

International Children’s Bible

²⁷ Remember your servants Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Don’t look at how stubborn these people are. Don’t look at their sin and evil. ²⁸ Otherwise, Egypt will say, ‘The Lord was not able to take his people into the land he promised them. He hated them. So he took them into the desert to kill them.’ ²⁹ But they are your people, Lord. They are your own people. You brought them out of Egypt with your great power and strength.”
