Exodus 3:7-9

The Voice

Eternal One: ⁷ I have seen how My people in Egypt are being mistreated. I have heard their groaning when the slave drivers torment and harass them; for I know well their suffering. ⁸ I have come to rescue them from the oppression of the Egyptians, to lead them from that land where they are slaves and to give them a good land—a wide, open space flowing with milk and honey. The land is currently inhabited by Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites. ⁹ The plea of Israel’s children has come before Me, and I have observed the cruel treatment they have suffered by Egyptian hands.
