And the people believed: and when they heard that the LORD had visited the children of Israel, and that he had looked upon their affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshipped.

And the LORD said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their sorrows; And I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey; unto the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites.

Thus hath the Lord dealt with me in the days wherein he looked on me, to take away my reproach among men.

He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;

And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.

It may be that the LORD will look on mine affliction, and that the LORD will requite me good for his cursing this day.

For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

Now there arose up a new king over Egypt, which knew not Joseph.

And she vowed a vow, and said, O LORD of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thine handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thine handmaid, but wilt give unto thine handmaid a man child, then I will give him unto the LORD all the days of his life, and there shall no rasor come upon his head.
