Context of Deuteronomy 9:29

27Remember Your servants, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Pay no attention to the stubbornness of this people or to their wickedness or their sin. 28Otherwise the land from which You brought us out may say, “Because Adonai was not able to bring them into the land that He spoke of to them, and because He hated them, He has brought them out to kill them in the wilderness.” Yet they are Your people—Your inheritance that You brought out by Your great power and Your outstretched arm.’
