Deuteronomy 9:24-26

The Voice

²⁴ You’ve been rebelling against Him from the day I met you!

²⁵ That’s why, at Horeb, I lay face down before the Eternal for 40 days and nights, praying for you: He said He was going to destroy you, and I knew He had every reason to! ²⁶ I prayed to Him, “Eternal Lord, please don’t destroy Your people! They’re Your own possession: You liberated them from another master—You brought them out of Egypt with overwhelming power.
