7 Then the LORD said, “I have surely seen the affliction of my people who arein Egypt and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters. I know theirsufferings, 8 and I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of theEgyptians and to bring them up out of that land to a good and broad land, aland flowing with milk and honey, to the place of the Canaanites, the Hittites,the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites. 9 And now, behold, the cry of the people of Israel has come to me, and I have also seen the oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them. 10 Come, I will send you toPharaoh that you may bring my people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt.”
