Deuteronomy 9:25-29

25 “ ^aSo I fell down before the Lord for the forty days and nights, which I ^{▼▼Lit fell down}did because the Lord said He would destroy you. 26 ^cAnd I prayed to the Lord and said, ‘Lord God, do not destroy Your people, Your inheritance, whom You have redeemed through Your greatness, whom You have brought out of Egypt with a mighty hand! 27 Remember Your servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; do not turn Your attention to the stubbornness of this people, or to their wickedness, or their sin. 28 Otherwise, the people of the land from which You brought us will say, “ ^dSince the Lord was not able to bring them into the land which He had ^{▼▼Lit spoken to}promised them, and since He hated them, He has brought them out to kill them in the wilderness!” 29 Yet they are Your people, and ^fYour inheritance, whom You brought out by Your ^ggreat power and Your outstretched arm.’
