Famous quotes containing the word people:

    For you are a people holy to the LORD your God; the LORD your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on earth to be his people, his treasured possession. It was not because you were more numerous than any other people that the LORD set his heart on you and chose you -for you were the fewest of all peoples.
    Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 7:6,7.
