6But the Egyptians mistreated us and afflicted us, putting us to hard labor.
7So we called out to the LORD, the God of our fathers; and the LORD heard our voice and saw our affliction, toil, and oppression.
8Then the LORD brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, with great terror, signs, and wonders.
— Deuteronomy 26:6-8
