The Message

¹⁷ 'Dear God, my Master, you created earth and sky by your great power - by merely stretching out your arm! There is nothing you can't do. ¹⁸ You're loyal in your steadfast love to thousands upon thousands - but you also make children live with the fallout from their parents' sins. Great and powerful God, named God-of-the-Angel-Armies, ¹⁹ determined in purpose and relentless in following through, you see everything that men and women do and respond appropriately to the way they live, to the things they do. ²⁰ "'You performed signs and wonders in the country of Egypt and continue to do so right into the present, right here in Israel and everywhere else, too. You've made a reputation for yourself that doesn't diminish. ²¹ You brought your people Israel out of Egypt with signs and wonders - a powerful deliverance! - by merely stretching out your arm. ²² You gave them this land and solemnly promised to their ancestors a bountiful and fertile land.

You have made your name famous to this day. ²¹ "You brought Israel out of Egypt with mighty signs and wonders, with a strong hand and powerful arm, and with overwhelming terror. ²² You gave the people of Israel this land that you had promised their ancestors long before-a land flowing with milk and honey.
