Deuteronomy 9:26, 29

And I prayed unto Jehovah, and said, O Lord Jehovah, destroy not thy people and thine inheritance, that thou hast redeemed through thy greatness, that thou hast brought forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand.

Yet they are thy people and thine inheritance, which thou broughtest out by thy great power and by thine outstretched arm.
