51For they are your people and your inheritance, whom you brought out of Egypt, out of the midst of the iron furnace.

52that your eyes may be open to the plea of your servant and to the plea of your people Israel, to listen to them whenever they call to you.

53For you set them apart for yourself as an inheritance from all the peoples of the earth, just as you spoke by the hand of Moses your servant when you brought our fathers out from Egypt, Lord GOD.
