Read in context

Deuteronomy 26:6–10 · Berean Standard Bible

6 But the Egyptians mistreated us and afflicted us, putting us to hard labor.

7 So we called out to the LORD, the God of our fathers; and the LORD heard our voice and saw our affliction, toil, and oppression.

8 Then the LORD brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, with great terror, signs, and wonders.

9 And He brought us to this place and gave us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey.

10 And now, behold, I have brought the firstfruits of the land that You, O LORD, have given me.” Then you are to place the basket before the LORD your God and bow down before Him.
