42 ^fIf the God of my father, the God of Abraham and the ^gFear of Isaac, had not been on my side, surely now you would have sent me away empty-handed. ^hGod saw my affliction and the labor of my hands and ⁱrebuked you last night.”

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,

31 And the people ^pbelieved; and when they heard that the Lord had ^qvisited the people of Israel and that he had ^rseen their affliction, ^sthey bowed their heads and worshiped.

7 Then ^cwe cried to the Lord, the God of our fathers, and the Lord heard our voice and saw our affliction, our toil, and our oppression.
