3
c "I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, as d God Almighty, but by My name e LORD I was not known to them.
4
f "I have also established My covenant with them, g to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their pilgrimage, h in which they were strangers.
5
"And i I have also heard the groaning of the children of Israel whom the Egyptians keep in bondage, and I have remembered My covenant.
6
"Therefore say to the children of Israel: j 'I am the LORD; k I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, I will l rescue you from their bondage, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with great judgments.
7
'I will m take you as My people, and n I will be your God. Then you shall know that I am the LORD your God who brings you out o from under the burdens of the Egyptians.
8
