1. Then יְהוָ֥ה said unto Moses, Now shalt thou see what I will do to Pharaoh: for with a strong hand shall he let them go, and with a strong hand shall he drive them out of his land.

2. And Elohim spake unto Moses, and said unto him, יְהוָ֥ה:

3. And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by Elohim Almighty, but by my name יְהוָ֥ה was I not known to them.

4. And I have also established my covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their pilgrimage, wherein they were strangers.

5. And I have also heard the groaning of the children of Israel, whom the Egyptians keep in bondage; and I have remembered my covenant.

6. Wherefore say unto the children of Israel, יְהוָ֥ה, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will rid you out of their bondage, and I will redeem you with a stretched out arm, and with great judgments:

7. And I will take you to me for a people, and I will be to you Elohim: and ye shall know that יְהוָ֥ה your Elohim, which bringeth you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.

8. And I will bring you in unto the land, concerning the which I did swear to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it you for an heritage: יְהוָ֥ה.

9. And Moses spake so unto the children of Israel: but they hearkened not unto Moses for anguish of spirit, and for cruel bondage.

10. And יְהוָ֥ה spake unto Moses, saying,

11. Go in, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, that he let the children of Israel go out of his land.

12. And Moses spake before יְהוָ֥ה, saying, Behold, the children of Israel have not hearkened unto me; how then shall Pharaoh hear me, who of uncircumcised lips?

13. And יְהוָ֥ה spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, and gave them a charge unto the children of Israel, and unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt.

27. These they which spake to Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring out the children of Israel from Egypt: these that Moses and Aaron.

28. And it came to pass on the day יְהוָ֥ה spake unto Moses in the land of Egypt,

29. That יְהוָ֥ה spake unto Moses, saying, יְהוָ֥ה: speak thou unto Pharaoh king of Egypt all that I say unto thee.

30. And Moses said before יְהוָ֥ה, Behold, I of uncircumcised lips, and how shall Pharaoh hearken unto me?
