- a prophet:
- Thus saith, "And an angelª of the LORDª came upª° from¹ Gilgalª to¹ Bochim,ª and said,ª° I made you to go upª°¹ out of Egypt,ª¹ and have broughtª° you unto¹ the landª which¹ I swareª° unto your fathers;ª and I said,ª° I will neverª¹ breakª° my covenantª with¹ you. ... Wherefore I also¹ said,ª° I will not¹ drive them outª°¹ from beforeª¹ you; but they shall be¹ [as thorns] in your sides,ª and their godsª shall be¹ a snareª unto you." {Jdg 2:1-3} + "And didst seeª°¹ the afflictionª of our fathersª in Egypt,ª and heardestª° their cryª by¹ the Redª sea;ª ... Moreover thou leddestª° them in the dayª by a cloudyª pillar;ª and in the nightª by a pillarª of fire,ª to give them lightª° in¹ the wayª wherein¹ they should go.²°¹" {Neh 9:9-12} + "To him that smoteª° Egyptª in their firstborn:ª for¹ his mercyª [endureth] for ever:ª ... To him which led²°¹ his peopleª through the wilderness:ª for¹ his mercyª [endureth] for ever.ª" {Psa 136:10-16} + "In all¹ their afflictionª he was afflicted,ª and the angelª of his presenceª savedª° them: in his loveª and in his pityª he¹ redeemedª° them; and he bareª° them, and carriedª° them all¹ the daysª of old.ª ... As a beastª goeth downª° into the valley,ª the Spiritª of the LORDª caused him to rest:ª° so¹ didst thou leadª° thy people,ª to makeª° thyself a gloriousª name.ª" {Isa 63:9-14} + "And sayª° unto¹ them, Thus¹ saithª° the Lordª GOD;ª In the dayª when I choseª° Israel,ª and lifted upª° mine handª unto the seedª of the houseª of Jacob,ª and made myself knownª° unto them in the landª of Egypt,ª when I lifted²° up¹ mine handª unto them, saying,ª° I¹ [am] the LORDª your God;ª ... And that which comethª° into¹ your mindª shall not¹ be at all,ª that¹ ye¹ say,ª° We will beª° as the heathen,ª as the familiesª of the countries,ª to serveª° woodª and stone.ª" {Ezk 20:5-32}
