not for thy righteousness, and for the uprightness of thy heart, art thou going in to possess their land; but for the wickedness of these nations is Jehovah thy God dispossessing them from before thee; and in order to establish the word which Jehovah hath sworn to thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob;

only in thy fathers hath Jehovah delighted -- to love them, and He doth fix on their seed after them -- on you, out of all the peoples as at this day;

O seed of Abraham, His servant, O sons of Jacob, His chosen ones.

-- And thou, O Israel, My servant, Jacob, whom I have chosen, Seed of Abraham, My lover,

At that time, an affirmation of Jehovah, I am for God to all families of Israel, And they -- they are to Me for a people.

The eyes of Jehovah are unto the righteous, And His ears unto their cry.

With his

Or hath God tried to go in to take to Himself, a nation from the midst of a nation, by trials, by signs, and by wonders, and by war, and by a strong hand, and by a stretched-out arm, and by great terrors -- according to all that Jehovah your God hath done to you, in Egypt, before your eyes?
