If then he shall cry to me, I will hearken to him, for I am merciful.

¹⁶ And we cried to the Lord, and the Lord heard our voice, and sent an angel and brought us out of Egypt; and now we are in the city of Cades, at the extremity of thy coasts.

^{15 (24:17)} Thou shalt pay him his wages the same day, the sun shall not go down upon it, because he is poor and he trusts in it; and he shall cry against thee to the Lord, and it shall be sin in thee.

⁶ And the Egyptians afflicted us, and humbled us, and imposed hard tasks on us: ⁷ and we cried to the Lord our God, and the Lord heard our voice, and saw our humiliation, and our labour, and our affliction.

¹¹ And the Lord said to the children of Israel, Did I not save you from Egypt and from the Amorite, and from the children of Ammon, and from the Phylistines, ¹² and from the Sidonians, and Amalec, and Madiam, who afflicted you? and ye cried to me, and I saved you out of their hand?

⁹ And thou sawest the affliction of our fathers in Egypt, and thou heardest their cry at the Red Sea.

^{6 (17:6)} And when I was afflicted I called upon the Lord, and cried to my God: he heard my voice out of this holy temple, and my cry shall enter before him, even into his ears.

^{6 (80:6)} He removed his back from burdens: his hands slaved in making the baskets. ^{7 (80:7)} Thou didst call upon me in trouble, and I delivered thee; I heard thee in the secret place of the storm: I proved thee at the water of Strife. Pause.

^{19 (106:19)} Then they cried to the Lord in their affliction, and he saved them out of their distresses. ^{20 (106:20)} He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them out of their destructions.

⁷ For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Juda his beloved plant: I expected it to bring forth judgement, and it brought forth iniquity; and not righteousness, but a cry.

²⁰ And it shall be for a sign to the Lord for ever in the land of Egypt: for they shall presently cry to the Lord by reason of them that afflict them, and he shall send them a man who shall save them; he shall judge and save them.

¹⁴ And the nation whomsoever they shall serve I will judge; and after this, they shall come forth hither with much property. ¹⁵ But thou shalt depart to thy fathers in peace, nourished in a good old age. ¹⁶ And in the fourth generation they shall return hither, for the sins of the Amorites are not yet filled up, even until now. ¹⁷ And when the sun was about to set, there was a flame, and behold a smoking furnace and lamps of fire, which passed between these divided pieces. ¹⁸ In that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying, To thy seed I will give this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river Euphrates.

⁷ And I will establish my covenant between thee and thy seed after thee, to their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be thy God, and the God of thy seed after thee.

¹⁸ But Abraam shall become a great and populous nation, and in him shall all the nations of the earth be blest.

³ And sojourn in this land; and I will be with thee, and bless thee, for I will give to thee and to thy seed all this land; and I will establish my oath which I swore to thy father Abraam.

²⁴ And the Lord appeared to him in that night, and said, I am the God of Abraam thy father; fear not, for I am with thee, and I will bless thee, and multiply thy seed for the sake of Abraam thy father.

¹² and dreamed, and behold a ladder fixed on the earth, whose top reached to heaven, and the angels of God ascended and descended on it. ¹³ And the Lord stood upon it, and said, I am the God of thy father Abraam, and the God of Isaac; fear not, the land on which thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed. ¹⁴ And thy seed shall be as the sand of the earth; and it shall spread abroad to the sea, and the south, and the north, and to the east; and in thee and in thy seed shall all the tribes of the earth be blessed.

²⁸ And he said to him, Thy name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name; for thou hast prevailed with God, and shalt be mighty with men.

² And God spoke to Israel in a night vision, saying, Jacob, Jacob; and he said, What is it? ³ And he says to him, I am the God of thy fathers; fear not to go down into Egypt, for I will make thee there a great nation. ⁴ And I will go down with thee into Egypt, and I will bring thee up at the end; and Joseph shall put his hands on thine eyes.

⁵ And I hearkened to the groaning of the children of Israel (the affliction with which the Egyptians enslave them) and I remembered the covenant with you.

¹⁸ And because the Lord raised them up judges, so the Lord was with the judge, and saved them out of the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge; for the Lord was moved at their groaning by reason of them that besieged them and afflicted them.

⁸ and thou foundest his heart faithful before thee, and didst make a covenant with him to give to him and to his seed the land of the Chananites, and the Chettites, and Amorites, and Pherezites, and Jebusites, and Gergesites; and thou hast confirmed thy words, for thou art righteous. ⁹ And thou sawest the affliction of our fathers in Egypt, and thou heardest their cry at the Red Sea.

²⁷ Then thou gavest them into the hand of them that afflicted them, and they did afflict them: and they cried to thee in the time of their affliction, and thou didst hear them from thy heaven, and in thy great compassions gavest them deliverers, and didst save them from the hand of them that afflicted them. ²⁸ But when they rested, they did evil again before thee: so thou leftest them in the hands of their enemies, and they ruled over them: and they cried again to thee, and thou heardest them from heaven, and didst deliver them in thy great compassions.

^{5 (21:5)} They cried to thee, and were saved: they hoped in thee, and were not ashamed.

^{24 (21:24)} For he has not despised nor been angry at the supplication of the poor; nor turned away his face from me; but when I cried to him, he heard me.

^{11 (78:11)} Let the groaning of the prisoners come in before thee; according to the greatness of thine arm preserve the sons of the slain ones.

^{20 (101:20)} to hear the groaning of the fettered ones, to loosen the sons of the slain;

^{6 (104:6)} ye seed of Abraam, his servants, ye children of Jacob, his chosen ones. ^{7 (104:7)} He is the Lord our God; his judgments are in all the earth. ^{8 (104:8)} He has remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded for a thousand generation: ^{9 (104:9)} which he established as a covenant to Abraam, and he remembered his oath to Isaac. ^{10 (104:10)} And he established it to Jacob for an ordinance, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant; ^{11 (104:11)} saying To thee will I give the land of Chanaan, the line of your inheritance: ^{12 (104:12)} when they were few in number, very few, and sojourners in it. ^{13 (104:13)} And they went from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another people.

^{42 (104:42)} For he remembered his holy word, which he promised to Abraam his servant.

^{45 (105:45)} And he remembered his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his mercy.

^{3 (137:3)} In whatsoever day I shall call upon thee, hear me speedily; thou shalt abundantly provide me with thy power in my soul.

⁸ And there arose up another king over Egypt, who knew not Joseph.

⁷ And the Lord said to Moses, I have surely seen the affliction of my people that is in Egypt, and I have heard their cry caused by their task-masters; for I know their affliction. ⁸ And I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them out of that land, and to bring them into a good and wide land, into a land flowing with milk and honey, into the place of the Chananites, and the Chettites, and Amorites, and Pherezites, and Gergesites, and Evites, and Jebusites.

³¹ and the people believed and rejoiced, because God visited the children of Israel, and because he saw their affliction: and the people bowed and worshipped.

¹¹ And she vowed a vow to the Lord, saying, O Lord God of Sabaoth, if thou welt indeed look upon the humiliation of thine handmaid, and remember me, and give to thine handmaid a man-child, then will I indeed dedicate him to thee till the day of his death; and he shall drink no wine nor strong drink, and no razor shall come upon his head.

¹² If by any means the Lord may look on my affliction, thus shall he return me good for his cursing this day.

²⁷ Even then a man shall blame himself, saying, What kind of things have I done? and he has not punished me according to the full amount of my sins.

⁶ For the Lord knows the way of the righteous; but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

^{22 (54:22)} Cast thy care upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee; he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.
