[It is] not because of your righteousness and because of the uprightness of your heart [that] you [are] coming to take possession of their land, but because of the wickedness of these nations Yahweh your God [is] driving them {before you}, and in order to confirm the {promise} that Yahweh swore to your ancestors, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.

{Yet} to your ancestors Yahweh was very attached, [so as to] love them, and [so] he chose their offspring after them, [namely] you, from all the peoples, as it is {today}.

O offspring of Abraham his servant, [you] descendants of Jacob, his chosen ones.

But you, Israel, my servant, Jacob, whom I have chosen, you, the {offspring} of Abraham my {friend},

"At that time," {declares} Yahweh, "I will be the God of all the clans of Israel, and they will be to me a people."

"I have loved you," says Yahweh, but you say, "How have you loved us?" "[Is] Esau not Jacob's brother?" {declares} Yahweh. "I have loved Jacob,

to show mercy to our fathers and to remember his holy covenant,

[to] whom [belong] the patriarchs, and from whom [is] the Christ according to human descent, who is God over all, blessed {forever}! Amen.

I will instruct you and teach you in [the] way that you should go. I will advise [you] [with] my eye upon you.

The eyes of Yahweh [are] toward [the] righteous, and his ears toward their cry for help.

With his

Or has a god [ever] attempted to go to take for himself a nation from the midst of a nation, [using] trials and signs and wonders and war, with an outstretched arm and with great and awesome deeds, like all that Yahweh your God did for you in Egypt before your eyes?

When Israel went out from Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of a strange language,

To [him who] struck Egypt through their firstborn, for his loyal love [endures] forever.

Awake! Awake; put on strength, O arm of Yahweh! Awake as [in] days of long ago, [the] generations of a long time back! [Are] you not the one who cut Rahab in pieces, [the] one who pierced [the] sea-dragon?

Then his people remembered the days of old, [of] Moses. Where [is] the one who led up them from [the] sea with the shepherds of his flock? Where [is] the one who puts {his Holy Spirit} inside him,
