The Lord understands everything you think. If you go to the Lord for help, you will get an answer. But if you turn away from the Lord, he will leave you forever.
God also said to Moses, “This is what you should tell the people: ‘YAHWEH [21] is the God of your ancestors, [22] the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. My name will always be YAHWEH. That is how the people will know me for generations and generations to come.’ {Tell the people,} ‘YAHWEH has sent me to you!’”
