Deuteronomy 7:7-8

ECB(i) 7 Yah Veh neither attached himself to you nor chose you because you were more abundant than any people - for you were the fewest of all people: 8 but because of the love of Yah Veh to you and because of guarding the oath he oathed to your fathers, Yah Veh brought you out with a strong hand and redeemed you from the house of servants - from the hand of Paroh sovereign of Misrayim.
