You will be loyal to Jacob and extend your loyal love to Abraham, ¹  which you promised on oath to our ancestors ²  in ancient times. ³ 

You will be true to Jacob, and show mercy to Abraham, as you pledged on oath to our fathers in days long ago.

You will give truth to Jacob And unchanging love to Abraham, Which You swore to our forefathers From the days of old.

You will show us your faithfulness and unfailing love as you promised with an oath to our ancestors Abraham and Jacob long ago.

You'll stay true to your word to Father Jacob and continue the compassion you showed Grandfather Abraham--Everything you promised our ancestors from a long time ago.

You will make clear your good faith to Jacob and your mercy to Abraham, as you gave your oath to our fathers from times long past.

You will show faithfulness to Jacob and unswerving loyalty to Abraham, as you have sworn to our ancestors from the days of old.

You will give truth to Jacob And mercy to Abraham, Which You have sworn to our fathers From days of old.
