7 Then the Lord said, e“I have surely seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt and have heard their cry because of their ftaskmasters. I know their sufferings,
23 If you do mistreat them, and they qcry out to me, I will surely rhear their cry,
17 hAnd the effect of righteousness will be peace,
and the result of righteousness, quietness and trust1 forever.
