* Then the LORD said unto Moses , Now thou shalt see what I will do to Pharaoh ; for with a strong hand he must let them go , and with a strong hand he shall drive them out of his land . * And God spoke unto Moses and said unto him , I [am ] the LORD ; * and I appeared unto Abraham , unto Isaac , and unto Jacob , as God Almighty , but by my name the LORD (YHWH ) I was not known to them . * And I also established my covenant with them , to give them the land of Canaan , the land of their pilgrimage , in which they were strangers . * And likewise I have heard the groaning of the sons of Israel , whom the Egyptians keep in bondage , and I have remembered my covenant . * Therefore say unto the sons of Israel , I [am ] the LORD , and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians , and I will free you out of their bondage , and I will redeem you with a stretched out arm and with great judgments . * And I will take you as my people , and I will be your God : and ye shall know that I [am ] the LORD your God , who brought you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians . * And I will bring you in unto the land , concerning which I raised my hand to give it to Abraham , to Isaac , and to Jacob ; and I will give it [unto ] you for a heritage : I [am ] the LORD . * In this manner Moses spoke unto the sons of Israel , but they did not hearken unto Moses because of [their ] anguish of spirit and cruel bondage . * And the LORD spoke unto Moses , saying , * Go in , speak unto Pharaoh , king of Egypt , that he let the sons of Israel go out of his land . * And Moses answered before the LORD , saying , Behold , the sons of Israel do not hearken unto me ; how then shall Pharaoh hear me , seeing I [am ] of uncircumcised lips ? * Then the LORD spoke unto Moses and unto Aaron and gave them a commandment unto the sons of Israel and unto Pharaoh king of Egypt , to bring the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt . * These [are ] the heads of their fathers ' families : The sons of Reuben , the firstborn of Israel : Enoch , Pallu , Hezron , and Carmi ; these [are ] the families of Reuben . * And the sons of Simeon : Jemuel , Jamin , Ohad , Jachin , Zohar , and Saul the son of a Canaanite woman ; these [are ] the families of Simeon . * And these [are ] the names of the sons of Levi according to their lineages : Gershon , Kohath , and Merari . And the years of the life of Levi [were ] one hundred thirty-seven years . * The sons of Gershon : Libni , and Shimi , according to their families . * And the sons of Kohath : Amram , Izhar , Hebron , and Uzziel . And the years of the life of Kohath [were ] one hundred thirty-three years . * And the sons of Merari : Mahali and Mushi ; these [are ] the families of Levi according to their lineages . * And Amram took Jochebed , his father 's sister to wife ; and she bore him Aaron and Moses . And the years of the life of Amram [were ] one hundred thirty-seven years . * And the sons of Izhar : Korah , Nepheg , and Zichri . * And the sons of Uzziel : Mishael , Elzaphan , and Zithri . * And Aaron took Elizabeth , daughter of Amminadab , sister of Naashon , to wife ; and she bore him Nadab , Abihu , Eleazar , and Ithamar . * And the sons of Korah : Assir , Elkanah , and Abiasaph ; these [are ] the families of the Korhites . * And Eleazar , Aaron 's son , took [one ] of the daughters of Putiel to wife ; and she bore him Phinehas . These [are ] the heads of the fathers of the Levites according to their families . * These [are ] that Aaron and Moses , to whom the LORD said , Bring out the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt according to their hosts . * These [are ] those who spoke to Pharaoh , king of Egypt , to bring out the sons of Israel from Egypt : these [are ] that Moses and Aaron . * And it came to pass on the day [when ] the LORD spoke unto Moses in the land of Egypt , * that the LORD spoke unto Moses , saying , I [am ] the LORD ; speak thou unto Pharaoh king of Egypt all that I say unto thee . * And Moses said before the LORD , Behold , I [am ] of uncircumcised lips , and how shall Pharaoh hearken unto me ?:
