21 Tell him, “We were slaves to the king of Egypt. But the Lord brought us out of Egypt by his great power.
22 The Lord showed us great and terrible signs and miracles. He did them to Egypt, the king and his whole family.
23 The Lord brought us out of Egypt. He led us here. And he will give us the land he promised our ancestors.
24 The Lord ordered us to obey all these commands. And we must respect the Lord our God. Then we will always do well and stay alive as we are today.
25 The right thing for us to do is this: Obey all these rules in the presence of the Lord our God. He has commanded it.”
