14He is the Lord our God.

His laws are for all the world.

15He will keep his agreement forever;

he will keep his promises always.

16He will keep the agreement he made with Abraham

and the promise he made to Isaac.

17He made it a law for the people of Jacob;

he made it an agreement with Israel to last forever.

18He said, “I will give the land of Canaan to you,

to belong to you.”

19Then God’s people were few in number,

and they were strangers in the land.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

He is the Lord our God;

his judgments are in all the earth.

Remember his covenant forever,

the word that he commanded, for a thousand generations,

the covenant that he made with Abraham,

his sworn promise to Isaac,

which he confirmed to Jacob as a statute,

to Israel as an everlasting covenant,

saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan,

as your portion for an inheritance.”

When you were few in number,

of little account, and sojourners in it,

NIVNew International Version (2011)

He is the Lord our God;

his judgments are in all the earth.

He remembers his covenant forever,

the promise he made, for a thousand generations,

the covenant he made with Abraham,

the oath he swore to Isaac.

He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree,

to Israel as an everlasting covenant:

“To you I will give the land of Canaan

as the portion you will inherit.”

When they were but few in number,

few indeed, and strangers in it,

CSBChristian Standard Bible

He is the Lord our God;

his judgments govern the whole earth.

Remember his covenant forever—

the promise he ordained for a thousand generations,

the covenant he made with Abraham,

swore to Isaac,

and confirmed to Jacob as a decree,

and to Israel as a permanent covenant:

“I will give the land of Canaan to you

as your inherited portion.”

When they were few in number,

very few indeed, and resident aliens in Canaan

NLTNew Living Translation

He is the Lord our God.

His justice is seen throughout the land.

Remember his covenant forever—

the commitment he made to a thousand generations.

This is the covenant he made with Abraham

and the oath he swore to Isaac.

He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree,

and to the people of Israel as a never-ending covenant:

“I will give you the land of Canaan

as your special possession.”

He said this when you were few in number,

a tiny group of strangers in Canaan.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

He is Yahweh our God;

his judgments are in all the earth.

Remember his covenant forever,

the word he commanded for a thousand generations,

that he made with Abraham,

his sworn oath to Isaac.

And he confirmed it to Jacob as a statute,

an everlasting covenant to Israel,

saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan,

the portion of your inheritance.”

When you were few in number, very few,

and sojourners in it,

KJV 1900King James Version

He is the Lord our God;

His judgments are in all the earth.

Be ye mindful always of his covenant;

The word which he commanded to a thousand generations;

Even of the covenant which he made with Abraham,

And of his oath unto Isaac;

And hath confirmed the same to Jacob for a law,

And to Israel for an everlasting covenant,

Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan,

The lot of your inheritance;

When ye were but few,

Even a few, and strangers in it.
