Deuteronomy 4:36-38

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³⁶ From heaven he made thee to hear his voice, that he might teach thee. And upon earth he shewed thee his exceeding great fire, and thou didst hear his words out of the midst of the fire,

³⁷ Because he loved thy fathers, and chose their seed after them. And he brought thee out of Egypt, going before thee with his great power,

³⁸ To destroy at thy coming very great nations, and stronger than thou art, and to bring thee in, and give thee their land for a possession, as thou seest at this present day.
