Deuteronomy 26:7 In-Context

5 "Then, in the presence of ADONAI your God, you are to say, 'My ancestor was a nomad from Aram. He went down into Egypt few in number and stayed. There he became a great, strong, populous nation.
6 But the Egyptians treated us badly; they oppressed us and imposed harsh slavery on us.
7 So we cried out to ADONAI, the God of our ancestors. ADONAI heard us and saw our misery, toil and oppression;
8 and ADONAI brought us out of Egypt with a strong hand and a stretched-out arm, with great terror, and with signs and wonders.
9 Now he has brought us to this place and given us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey.
