6For you are 1a holyH6918 peopleH5971 to the LordH3068 your GodH430; the LordH3068 your GodH430 has chosenH977 you to be 2a peopleH5971 for His 3own possessionH5459 out of allH3605 the peoplesH5971 whoH834 are on the faceH6440 of the 4earthH127.
7“5The LordH3068 did not setH2836 His loveH2836 on you norH3808 chooseH977 you becauseH3588 you were moreH7231 in numberH7231 thanH4480 anyH3605 of the peoplesH5971, for you were the fewestH4592 of allH3605 peoplesH5971, 8but becauseH3588 the LordH3068 lovedH157 you and keptH8104 the 6oathH7621 whichH834 He sworeH7650 to your forefathersH1, 7the LordH3068 broughtH3318 you out by a mightyH2389 handH3027 and redeemedH6299 you from the houseH1004 of 8slaveryH5650, from the handH3027 of PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714.
