7. 我要以你們為我的百姓.我也要作你們的 神、你們要知道我是耶和華你們的 神、是救你們脫離埃及人之重擔的。
I will take you as my own people, and I will be your God. Then you will know that I am the LORD your God, who brought you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians.
8. 我起誓應許給亞伯拉罕、以撒、雅各的那地、我要把你們領進去將那地賜給你們為業、我是耶和華。
And I will bring you to the land I swore with uplifted hand to give to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob. I will give it to you as a possession. I am the LORD.'"
