14 But the nation that they will serve I am judging,+ and after that they will go out with many goods.+

24 In time God heard+ their groaning+ and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.+

72 to perform the mercy in connection with our forefathers and to call to mind his holy covenant,+
