"'In the day when I chose Israel, and lift up mine hand upon the seed of the house of Jacob, and showed myself unto them in the land of Egypt; Yea, when I lift up mine hand over them, and said, 'I am the LORD your God,'

therefore thus sayeth the LORD God: I have sworn, that the Gentiles which lie about you shall bear your confusion themselves.

Part it indifferently unto one as unto another: of the which land I swore unto your fathers, that it should fall to your inheritance.

To give

Remember Abraham, Isaac and Israel thy servants, to whom thou sworest by thine own self and saidest unto them, 'I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land which I have said, I will give unto your seed: and they shall inherit it forever.'"

saying, "By myself have I sworn, saith the LORD, because thou hast done this thing and hast not spared thy only son,

Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee: for unto thee and unto thy seed I will give all these countries. And I will perform the oath which I swore unto Abraham thy father,

Yea, and the LORD stood upon it and said, "I am the LORD God of Abraham thy father and the God of Isaac: The land which thou sleepest upon will I give thee and thy seed.

And the land which I gave Abraham and Isaac, will I give unto thee, and unto thy seed after thee will I give it also."

And thereto he that giveth victory to Israel, will not beguile nor repent: for he is not a man, that can repent."
