הֵ֣ן בַּ֭עֲבָדָיו לֹ֣א יַאֲמִ֑ין וּ֝בְמַלְאָכָ֗יו יָשִׂ֥ים תָּהֳלָֽה׃
זע, אין זײַנע קנעכט גלױבט ער ניט, און אין זײַנע מלאכים מערקט ער אַ פֿאַרזע,
Avot DeRabbi Natan, Recension B
11. Israel are called servants, [as it is said: "For to Me the children of Israel are servants"] (Leviticus 25:55), and the ministering angels are called servants, [as it is said]: "Behold, He puts no trust in His servants" (Job 4:18)—and you do not know which of the two is the more beloved. When Scripture says: "For they are My servants, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt" (Leviticus 25:55)—you, Israel, are more beloved before Me than the ministering angels.
