Thou givest truth to Jacob, kindness to Abraham, That thou hast sworn to our fathers, from the days of antiquity!

Young's Literal Translation

Footnotes:

*This is the same word we see in Genesis 2:8 translated 'East', as in when God planted the garden of Eden in the 'East'. This verse is a clear indication that the ultimate fulfilment of God's covenant with Abraham, and all believers as his children of the faith, is when the Garden is restored to humanity by יהוה (Yahweh). Exactly as the last two chapters of the book of Revelation confirms.
