The LORD said, ‘I have certainly seen the troubles of my people in Egypt. I have heard them when they cry out for help because of their cruel masters. I know that they are very sad. So now I have come down to save them from the power of the Egyptians. I will bring them out from Egypt to go to another land. That will be a good land and a big land. The land will give them plenty of good food and drink, enough for everyone. These are the nations who live there now: the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites and the Jebusites.
