Deuteronomy 9:26-29

Rotherham(i) 26 Therefore I prostrated myself unto Yahweh, and said, My Lord Yahweh! Do not destroy thy people, even thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed in thy greatness,––which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt with a firm hand. 27 Have remembrance of thy servants, of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob,––do not regard the obduracy of this people, or their lawlessness, or their sin: 28 lest the land out of which thou hast brought us forth say, Because Yahweh was not able to bring them into the land of which he had spoken to them,––and because he hated them, took he them forth, to put them to death in the desert. 29 Yet, they, are thy people, and thine inheritance,––whom thou hast brought forth with thy great strength, and with thy stretched–out arm.
