5 MOSEBOG 7:9

så skal du vide, at HERREN din Gud er den sande Gud, den trofaste Gud, der i tusinde Slægtled holder fast ved sin Pagt og sin Miskundhed mod dem, der elsker ham og holder hans Bud,

Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations;
