[1] Yahweh said to Moses, “Now you shall see what I will do to Pharaoh, for by a strong hand he shall let them go, and by a strong hand he shall drive them out of his land.” [2] God spoke to Moses, and said to him, “I am Yahweh. [3] I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, as God Almighty; but by my name Yahweh I was not known to them. [4] I have also established my covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their travels, in which they lived as aliens. [5] Moreover I have heard the groaning of the children of Israel, whom the Egyptians keep in bondage, and I have remembered my covenant. [6] Therefore tell the children of Israel, ‘I am Yahweh, 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 an outstretched arm, and with great judgments. [7] I will take you to myself for a people. I will be your God; and you shall know that I am Yahweh your God, who brings you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians. [8] I will bring you into the land which I swore to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it to you for a heritage: I am Yahweh.’ ” [9] Moses spoke so to the children of Israel, but they didn’t listen to Moses for anguish of spirit, and for cruel bondage. [10] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, [11] “Go in, speak to Pharaoh king of Egypt, that he let the children of Israel go out of his land.” [12] Moses spoke before Yahweh, saying, “Behold, the children of Israel haven’t listened to me. How then shall Pharaoh listen to me, when I have uncircumcised lips?” [13] Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, and gave them a command to the children of Israel, and to Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt. [14] These are the heads of their fathers’ houses. The sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel: Hanoch, and Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi; these are the families of Reuben. [15] The sons of Simeon: Jemuel, and Jamin, and Ohad, and Jachin, and Zohar, and Shaul the son of a Canaanite woman; these are the families of Simeon. [16] These are the names of the sons of Levi according to their generations: Gershon, and Kohath, and Merari; and the years of the life of Levi were one hundred thirty-seven years. [17] The sons of Gershon: Libni and Shimei, according to their families. [18] The sons of Kohath: Amram, and Izhar, and Hebron, and Uzziel; and the years of the life of Kohath were one hundred thirty-three years. [19] The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi. These are the families of the Levites according to their generations. [20] Amram took Jochebed his father’s sister to himself as wife; and she bore him Aaron and Moses. The years of the life of Amram were one hundred thirty-seven years. [21] The sons of Izhar: Korah, and Nepheg, and Zichri. [22] The sons of Uzziel: Mishael, Elzaphan, and Sithri. [23] Aaron took Elisheba, the daughter of Amminadab, the sister of Nahshon, as his wife; and she bore him Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar. [24] The sons of Korah: Assir, Elkanah, and Abiasaph; these are the families of the Korahites. [25] Eleazar Aaron’s son took one of the daughters of Putiel as his wife; and she bore him Phinehas. These are the heads of the fathers’ houses of the Levites according to their families. [26] These are that Aaron and Moses to whom Yahweh said, “Bring out the children of Israel from the land of Egypt according to their armies.” [27] These are those who spoke to Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring out the children of Israel from Egypt. These are that Moses and Aaron. [28] On the day when Yahweh spoke to Moses in the land of Egypt, [29] Yahweh said to Moses, “I am Yahweh. Tell Pharaoh king of Egypt all that I tell you.” [30] Moses said before Yahweh, “Behold, I am of uncircumcised lips, and how shall Pharaoh listen to me?”

[1] Then the Lord H3068 said H559 (QalImpf) unto Moses, H4872 Now shalt thou see H7200 (QalImpf) what I will do H6213 (QalImpf) to Pharaoh: H6547 for with a strong H2389 hand H3027 shall he let them go, H7971 (PielImpf) and with a strong H2389 hand H3027 shall he drive them out H1644 (PielImpf) of his land. H776 [2] And God H430 spake H1696 (PielImpf) unto Moses, H4872 and said H559 (QalImpf) unto him, I am the Lord: H3068 [3] and I appeared H7200 (NiphImpf) unto Abraham, H85 unto Isaac, H3327 and unto Jacob, H3290 by the name of God H410 Almighty, H7706 but by my name H8034 JEHOVAH H3068 was I not known H3045 (NiphPerf) to them. [4] And I have also established H6965 (HiphPerf) my covenant H1285 with them, to give H5414 (QalInf) them the land H776 of Canaan, H3667 the land H776 of their pilgrimage, H4033 wherein they were strangers. H1481 (QalPerf) [5] And I have also heard H8085 (QalPerf) the groaning H5009 of the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 whom H834 the Egyptians H4714 keep in bondage; H5647 (HiphPtc) and I have remembered H2142 (QalImpf) my covenant. H1285 [6] Wherefore H3651 say H559 (QalImpv) unto the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 I am the Lord, H3068 and I will bring H3318 (HiphPerf) you out from under the burdens H5450 of the Egyptians, H4714 and I will rid H5337 (HiphPerf) you out of their bondage, H5656 and I will redeem H1350 (QalPerf) you with a stretched H5186 (QalPasPtc) out arm, H2220 and with great H1419 judgments: H8201 [7] and I will take H3947 (QalPerf) you to me for a people, H5971 and I will be to you a God: H430 and ye shall know H3045 (QalPerf) that I am the Lord H3068 your God, H430 which bringeth H3318 (HiphPtc) you out from under the burdens H5450 of the Egyptians. H4714 [8] And I will bring H935 (HiphPerf) you in unto the land, H776 concerning the which I did swear H5375 (QalPerf)§ to give H5414 (QalInf) it to Abraham, H85 to Isaac, H3327 and to Jacob; H3290 and I will give H5414 (QalPerf) it you for an heritage: H4181 I am the Lord. H3068 [9] And Moses H4872 spake H1696 (PielImpf) so unto the children H1121 of Israel: H3478 but they hearkened H8085 (QalPerf) not unto Moses H4872 for anguish H7115§ of spirit, H7307 and for cruel H7186 bondage. H5656 [10] And the Lord H3068 spake H1696 (PielImpf) unto Moses, H4872 saying, H559 (QalInf) [11] Go H935 (QalImpv) in, speak H1696 (PielImpv) unto Pharaoh H6547 king H4428 of Egypt, H4714 that he let the children H1121 of Israel H3478 go out H7971 (PielImpf) of his land. H776 [12] And Moses H4872 spake H1696 (PielImpf) before H6440 the Lord, H3068 saying, H559 (QalInf) Behold, the children H1121 of Israel H3478 have not hearkened H8085 (QalPerf) unto me; how then shall Pharaoh H6547 hear H8085 (QalImpf) me, H589 who am of uncircumcised H6189 lips? H8193 [13] And the Lord H3068 spake H1696 (PielImpf) unto Moses H4872 and unto Aaron, H175 and gave them a charge H6680 (PielImpf) unto the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 and unto Pharaoh H6547 king H4428 of Egypt, H4714 to bring H3318 (HiphInf) the children H1121 of Israel H3478 out of the land H776 of Egypt.
