7 You, the Lord,

are the God who chose Abram

and brought him out of Ur of the Chaldeans,ae

and changed his name to Abraham.af

8 You found his heart faithful in your sight,ag

and made a covenant with him

to give the land of the Canaanites,

Hethites, Amorites, Perizzites,

Jebusites, and Girgashites—

to give it to his descendants.ah

You have fulfilled your promise,

for you are righteous.
