to Pharaoh: for with a strong hand shall he let them go, and with a strong
hand shall he drive them out of his land.

the land of Canaan, the land of their pilgrimage, wherein they were strangers.

the Egyptians keep in bondage; and I have remembered my covenant.

will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will
rid you out of their bondage, and I will redeem you with a stretched out
arm, and with great judgments:
6:7 And I will take you to me for a people, and I will be to you a
God: and all of you shall know that I am the LORD your God, which brings
you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.

swear to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it
you for an heritage: I am the LORD.
