Exodus Promise

I will take you to be my people,
and I will be your God,
and you shall know that I am יהוה your God,
who has brought you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.
I will bring you into the land that I swore to give
to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.

I will give it to you for a possession.

I am יהוה.

First Blessing of Abram

Now יהוה said to Abram,

Go forth from your country
and your kindred
and your father’s house
to the land that I will show you.

And I will make of you a great nation,
And I will bless you
And I will make your name great,

And so, you SHALL be a blessing.

And I will bless those who bless you,
and him who dishonors you I will curse,
and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.

A Psalm for giving thanks.

Shout for joy to יהוה, all the earth.

Worship יהוה with gladness;
come before him with joyful songs.
Know that יהוה is God.
It is he who made us, and we are his;
we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.
Enter his gates with thanksgiving
and his courts with praise;
give thanks to him and praise his name.
For יהוה is good and his love endures forever;
his faithfulness continues through all generations.

He is like a tree...

Blessed is the man
who walks not in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stands in the path of sinners,
nor sits in the seat of scoffers;
but his delight is in the law of YHWH,
and on his law he meditates day and night.

He is like a tree
planted by streams of water
that yields its fruit in its season,
and its leaf does not wither.
In all that he does, he prospers.

The wicked are not so,
but are like chaff that the wind drives away.
Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous;
for YHWH knows the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked will perish.
