O great Lord! You have made the heaven and the earth by Your great power, and with Your high and lofty arm; nothing can be hidden from You.

Go, speak to the children of Israel, saying, I am the Lord; and I will lead you forth from the tyranny of the Egyptians, and I will deliver you from bondage, and I will ransom you with a high arm, and great judgment.

For now I will stretch forth My hand and smite you and kill your people, and you shall be consumed from off the earth.

I will bring you out from the nations, and will take you out of the lands in which you were dispersed, with a strong hand, and with a high arm, and with outpoured wrath.
