Deuteronomy 7:6-9

A Chosen People

⁶ "For _p you are a people holy to the Lord your God. The Lord your God has chosen you to be _p a people for his treasured possession, out of all the peoples who are on the face of the earth. ⁷ It was not because you were more in number than any other people that the Lord set his love on you and chose you, for you were the fewest of all peoples, ⁸ but _q it is because the Lord loves you and is keeping _r the oath that he swore to your fathers, that the Lord has brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you from the house of slavery, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt. ⁹ Know therefore that the Lord your God is God, _s the faithful God _t who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments, to a thousand generations,
