6 H6918 For thou art an holy H5971 people H3068 unto the LORD H430 thy God H3068 : the LORD H430 thy God H977 hath chosen [H8804] H5459 thee to be a special H5971 people H5971 unto himself, above all people H6440 that are upon the face H127 of the earth.

7 H3068 The LORD H2836 did not set his love [H8804] H977 upon you, nor choose [H8799] H7230 you, because ye were more H5971 in number than any people H4592 ; for ye were the fewest H5971 of all people:

8 H3068 But because the LORD H160 loved H8104 you, and because he would keep [H8800] H7621 the oath H7650 which he had sworn [H8738] H1 unto your fathers H3068 , hath the LORD H3318 brought you out [H8689] H2389 with a mighty H3027 hand H6299 , and redeemed [H8799] H1004 you out of the house H5650 of bondmen H3027 , from the hand H6547 of Pharaoh H4428 king H4714 of Egypt.

ERV⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁶ For thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God: the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to be a peculiar people unto himself, above all peoples that are upon the face of the earth. ⁷ The LORD did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye were the fewest of all peoples: ⁸ but because the LORD loveth you, and because he would keep the oath which he sware unto your fathers, hath the LORD brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
