I have listened to the voice of the Lord my God; I have done according to all that You have commanded me. 15 (B)Look down from Your holy habitation, from heaven, and bless Your people Israel, and the ground which You have given us, (C)a land flowing with milk and honey, as You swore to our fathers.’
