Nehemiah 9:7-8

7You are the Lord God who chose Abram. You brought him out of Ur, in Babylonia. You changed his name to be Abraham.

8You knew that Abraham trusted you, so you made a covenant with him. You promised to give the land of Canaan to his descendants. That was the country where the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Jebusites and Girgashites lived. You have done what you promised to do, because you are righteous.
