23
After a long time the king of Egypt died. The Israelites groaned under their slavery, and cried out. Out of the slavery their cry for help rose up to God.
24
God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
25
God looked upon the Israelites, and God took notice of them.
