Moses said: “You continue to live, because [Jehovah] loved your forefathers so that he chose their seed after them and brought you out of Egypt in his sight with his great power, to drive away nations greater and mightier than you from before you, so as to bring you in, to give you their land as an inheritance as at this day. ” ​ — Deuteronomy 4: 37, 38.
Mooses ütles: „Sellepärast et ta armastas su vanemaid ja valis nende järglased pärast neid, ja et ta ise viis sind oma suure rammuga Egiptusest välja, ajades su eest ära rahvad, suuremad ja vägevamad sinust, et sind viia ja sulle anda pärisosaks nende maa, nagu see tänapäeval on ”.
