Exodus 3:7-9

Revised Geneva Translation

⁷ Then the LORD said, “I have surely seen the trouble of My people who are in Egypt. And I have heard their cry, because of their taskmasters. For I know their sorrows.

⁸ “Therefore, I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them out of that land into a good and large land, into a land that flows with milk and honey, into the place of the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites.

⁹ “And now, lo, the cry of the children of Israel has come to Me. And I have also seen the oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them.
