Exodus 3:6-8

International Standard Version

⁶ Then he said, “I am the God of your ancestors, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” At this, Moses hid his face, because he was afraid to look at God.

⁷ The Lord said, “I have certainly seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and I have heard their cry caused by their slave masters. I really do understand their pain, ⁸ so I have come down to deliver them from their domination by^[a] the Egyptians and to bring them out of that land to a good and spacious land, a land flowing with milk and honey, to the territory^[b] of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites.
