Exodus:2:11-4:17
vw@Exodus:2:11 @ And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that he went out to his brethren and looked upon their burdens. And he saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew, one of his brethren.
vw@Exodus:2:12 @ And he looked this way and that, and when he saw no one, he killed the Egyptian and hid him in the sand.
vw@Exodus:2:13 @ And when he went out the second day, behold, two Hebrew men were fighting, and he said to the guilty one, Why are you striking the other fellow?
vw@Exodus:2:14 @ And he said, Who made you a ruler and a judge over us? Do you intend to kill me as you killed the Egyptian? And Moses feared and said, Surely this thing is known!
vw@Exodus:2:15 @ And when Pharaoh heard of the matter, he sought to kill Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh and dwelt in the land of Midian; and he sat down by a well.
vw@Exodus:2:16 @ Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters. And they came and drew water, and they filled the troughs to water their fathers flock.
vw@Exodus:2:17 @ And the shepherds came and drove them away; but Moses stood up and delivered them, and watered their flock.
vw@Exodus:2:18 @ And when they came to Reuel their father, he said, How is it that you have made haste today?
vw@Exodus:2:19 @ And they said, An Egyptian man delivered us from the hand of the shepherds, and proceeded to draw for us and watered the flock.
vw@Exodus:2:20 @ And he said to his daughters, And where is he? Why is it that you have left the man? Invite him, that he may eat bread.
vw@Exodus:2:21 @ And Moses agreed to live with the man, and he gave Zipporah his daughter to Moses.
vw@Exodus:2:22 @ And she bore him a son, and he called his name Gershom; for he said, I have become a sojourner in a foreign land.
vw@Exodus:2:23 @ And it came to pass after many days that the king of Egypt died. And the children of Israel groaned because of the bondage, and they cried out; and their cry came up to God because of the bondage.
vw@Exodus:2:24 @ And God heard their groaning, and God remembered His covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.
vw@Exodus:2:25 @ And God gave attention to the children of Israel, and God acknowledged them.
vw@Exodus:3:1 @ Now Moses was with the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian. And he led the flock to the back of the wilderness, and came to Horeb, the mountain of God.
vw@Exodus:3:2 @ And the Angel of Jehovah appeared to him in a flame of fire from the midst of a bush. And he looked, and behold, the bush was burning with fire, but the bush was not consumed.
vw@Exodus:3:3 @ And Moses thought, I will now turn aside and see this great sight, why the bush is not burned up.
vw@Exodus:3:4 @ And when Jehovah saw that he turned aside to look, God called to him from the midst of the bush and said, Moses! Moses! And he said, Here am I.
vw@Exodus:3:5 @ And He said, Do not approach here. Take your sandals off your feet, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.
vw@Exodus:3:6 @ Moreover He said, I am the God of your fathers; the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look upon God.
vw@Exodus:3:7 @ And Jehovah said: I have given attention to see the affliction of My people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters, for I have acknowledged their pain.
vw@Exodus:3:8 @ And I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up from that land to a good and broad land, to a land flowing with milk and honey, to the place of the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites.
vw@Exodus:3:9 @ Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children of Israel has come unto Me, and I have also seen the oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them.
vw@Exodus:3:10 @ Come now, therefore, and I will send you to Pharaoh that you may bring My people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt.
vw@Exodus:3:11 @ And Moses said to God, Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?
vw@Exodus:3:12 @ And He said, I will certainly be with you. And this shall be a sign to you that I have sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God on this mountain.
vw@Exodus:3:13 @ And Moses said to God, Behold, when I come to the sons of Israel and say to them, The God of your fathers has sent me to you, and they say to me, What is His name? what shall I say to them?
vw@Exodus:3:14 @ And God said to Moses, I AM THAT I AM. And He said, Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, I AM has sent me to you.
vw@Exodus:3:15 @ Moreover God said to Moses, Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel: Jehovah the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you. This is My eternal name, and this is My memorial from generation to generation.
vw@Exodus:3:16 @ Go and gather the elders of Israel together, and say to them, Jehovah the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, appeared to me, saying, I have surely visited you and seen what is being done to you in Egypt;
vw@Exodus:3:17 @ and I intend to bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt to the land of the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, to a land flowing with milk and honey.
vw@Exodus:3:18 @ And they will heed your voice; and you shall come, you and the elders of Israel, to the king of Egypt; and you shall say to him, Jehovah the God of the Hebrews has met with us; and now, please, let us go three days journey into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice unto Jehovah our God.
vw@Exodus:3:19 @ And I have taken into consideration that the king of Egypt will not let you go, no, not except by a mighty hand.
vw@Exodus:3:20 @ So I will stretch out My hand and strike Egypt with all My wonders which I will do in its midst; and after that he will let you go.
vw@Exodus:3:21 @ And I will give this people favor in the eyes of the Egyptians; and it shall come to pass, when you go, that you shall not leave empty.
vw@Exodus:3:22 @ But every woman shall ask of her neighbor, of her who sojourns in her house, articles of silver, articles of gold, and clothing; and you shall put them on your sons and on your daughters. Thus you shall plunder the Egyptians.
vw@Exodus:4:1 @ And Moses answered and said, But suppose they will not believe, nor listen to my voice; suppose they say, Jehovah has not appeared to you.
vw@Exodus:4:2 @ And Jehovah said to him, What is that in your hand? He said, A staff.
vw@Exodus:4:3 @ And He said, Throw it on the ground. So he threw it on the ground, and it became a serpent; and Moses fled before it.
vw@Exodus:4:4 @ And Jehovah said to Moses, Stretch out your hand and take it by the tail; and he stretched out his hand and caught it, and it became a staff in his hand;
vw@Exodus:4:5 @ that they may believe that Jehovah the God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has appeared to you.
vw@Exodus:4:6 @ Furthermore Jehovah said to him, Now put your hand into your bosom. And he put his hand into his bosom, and when he took it out, behold, his hand was leprous, like snow.
vw@Exodus:4:7 @ And He said, Put your hand back into your bosom. So he put his hand back into his bosom, and drew it out of his bosom, and behold, it was restored like his other flesh.
vw@Exodus:4:8 @ And it shall come to pass when they do not believe, nor heed the voice of the first sign, that perhaps they will believe the voice of the subsequent sign.
vw@Exodus:4:9 @ And it shall come to pass when they do not believe even these two signs, nor listen to your voice, that you shall take water from the river and pour it on the dry land. And the water which you take from the river shall become blood on the dry land.
vw@Exodus:4:10 @ And Moses said to Jehovah, O my Lord, I am not a man of words, neither formerly in times past nor since You have spoken to Your servant; but I have a heavy mouth and a dull tongue.
vw@Exodus:4:11 @ And Jehovah said to him, Who has made mans mouth? Or who makes the mute, the deaf, the seeing, or the blind? Is it not I, Jehovah?
vw@Exodus:4:12 @ Now therefore, go, and I will be with your mouth and teach you what you shall speak.
vw@Exodus:4:13 @ And he said, O my Lord, please send by the hand of whomever You may send.
vw@Exodus:4:14 @ And the anger of Jehovah burned against Moses, and He said: Is not Aaron the Levite your brother? I know that he can form words to speak. And behold, he is also coming out to meet you; and when he sees you, he will be glad in his heart.
vw@Exodus:4:15 @ And you shall speak to him and put the words in his mouth. And I will be with your mouth and with his mouth, and I will teach you what you shall do.
vw@Exodus:4:16 @ And he shall speak for you to the people. And he shall be as a mouth for you, and you shall be to him as God.
vw@Exodus:4:17 @ And you shall take this staff in your hand, with which you shall do the signs.
