And MosesH4872 answeredH6030 and said,H559 But, behold,H2005 they will not believeH539 me, norH3808 listenH8085 to my voice:H6963 for they will say,H559 The LORDH3068 has not appearedH7200 to you.
2
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to him, WhatH4100 is that in your hand?H3027 And he said,H559 A rod.H4294
3
And he said,H559 CastH7993 it on the ground.H776 And he castH7993 it on the ground,H776 and it becameH1961 a serpent;H5175 and MosesH4872 fledH5127 from beforeH6440 it.
4
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to Moses,H4872 PutH7971 forthH7971 your hand,H3027 and takeH270 it by the tail.H2180 And he putH7971 forthH7971 his hand,H3027 and caughtH2388 it, and it becameH1961 a rodH4294 in his hand:H3709
5
That they may believeH539 that the LORDH3068 GodH430 of their fathers,H1 the GodH430 of Abraham,H85 the GodH430 of Isaac,H3327 and the GodH430 of Jacob,H3290 has appearedH7200 to you.
6
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 furthermoreH5750 to him, PutH935 nowH4994 your handH3027 into your bosom.H2436 And he putH935 his handH3027 into his bosom:H2436 and when he tookH3318 it out, behold,H2009 his handH3027 was leprousH6879 as snow.H7950
7
And he said,H559 PutH7725 your handH3027 intoH413 your bosomH2436 again.H7725 And he putH7725 his handH3027 intoH413 his bosomH2436 again;H7725 and pluckedH3318 it out of his bosom,H2436 and, behold,H2009 it was turnedH7725 againH7725 as his other flesh.H1320
8
And it shall comeH1961 to pass, ifH518 they will not believeH539 you, neitherH3808 listenH8085 to the voiceH6963 of the firstH7223 sign,H226 that they will believeH539 the voiceH6963 of the latterH314 sign.H226
9
And it shall comeH1961 to pass, ifH518 they will not believeH539 alsoH1571 theseH428 twoH8147 signs,H226 neitherH3808 listenH8085 to your voice,H6963 that you shall takeH3947 of the waterH4325 of the river,H2975 and pourH8210 it on the dryH3004 land: and the waterH4325 whichH834 you takeH3947 out of the riverH2975 shall becomeH1961 bloodH1818 on the dryH3006 land.
10
And MosesH4872 saidH559 to the LORD,H3068 O my LORD,H136 I am not eloquent,H376 H1697 neitherH1571 heretofore,H8543 norH1571 sinceH227 you have spokenH1696 to your servant:H5650 but I am slowH3515 of speech,H6310 and of a slowH3515 tongue.H3956
11
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to him, WhoH4310 has madeH7760 man'sH120 mouth?H6310 orH176 whoH4310 makesH7760 the dumb,H483 orH176 deaf,H2795 orH176 the seeing,H6493 orH176 the blind?H5787 have not I the LORD?H3068
12
NowH6258 therefore go,H3212 and I will be with your mouth,H6310 and teachH3384 you whatH834 you shall say.H1696
13
And he said,H559 O my LORD,H136 send,H7971 I prayH4994 you, by the handH3027 of him whom you will send.H7971
14
And the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 was kindledH2734 against Moses,H4872 and he said,H559 Is not AaronH175 the LeviteH3881 your brother?H251 I knowH3045 that he can speakH1696 well. And also,H1571 behold,H2009 he comesH3318 forthH3318 to meetH7125 you: and when he seesH7200 you, he will be gladH8056 in his heart.H3820
15
And you shall speakH1696 to him, and putH7760 wordsH1697 in his mouth:H6310 and I will be with your mouth,H6310 and with his mouth,H6310 and will teachH3384 you whatH853 H834 you shall do.H6213
16
And he shall be your spokesmanH1696 to the people:H5971 and he shall be, even he shall be to you instead of a mouth,H6310 and you shall be to him instead of God.H430
17
And you shall takeH3947 thisH2088 rodH4294 in your hand,H3027 with whichH834 you shall doH6213 signs.H226
18
And MosesH4872 wentH3212 and returnedH7725 to JethroH3503 his fatherH2859 in law,H2859 and saidH559 to him, Let me go,H3212 I prayH4994 you, and returnH7725 to my brothersH251 whichH834 are in Egypt,H4714 and seeH7200 whetherH5750 they be yetH5750 alive.H2416 And JethroH3503 saidH559 to Moses,H4872 GoH3212 in peace.H7965
19
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872 in Midian,H4080 Go,H3212 returnH7725 into Egypt:H4714 for allH3605 the menH582 are deadH4191 which soughtH1245 your life.H5315
20
And MosesH4872 tookH3947 his wifeH802 and his sons,H1121 and setH7392 them on an ass,H2543 and he returnedH7725 to the landH776 of Egypt:H4714 and MosesH4872 tookH3947 the rodH4294 of GodH430 in his hand.H3027
21
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to Moses,H4872 When you goH3212 to returnH7725 into Egypt,H4714 seeH7200 that you doH6213 allH3605 those wondersH4159 beforeH6440 Pharaoh,H6547 whichH834 I have putH7760 in your hand:H3027 but I will hardenH2388 his heart,H3820 that he shall not let the peopleH5971 go.H7971
22
And you shall sayH559 to Pharaoh,H6547 ThusH3541 saidH559 the LORD,H3068 IsraelH3478 is my son,H1121 even my firstborn:H1060
23
And I sayH559 to you, Let my sonH1121 go,H7971 that he may serveH5647 me: and if you refuseH3985 to let him go,H7971 behold,H2009 I will slayH2026 your son,H1121 even your firstborn.H1060
24
And it cameH1961 to pass by the wayH1870 in the inn,H4411 that the LORDH3068 metH6298 him, and soughtH1245 to killH4191 him.
25
Then ZipporahH6855 tookH3947 a sharpH6864 stone,H6697 and cutH3772 off the foreskinH6190 of her son,H1121 and castH5060 it at his feet,H7272 and said,H559 SurelyH3588 a bloodyH1818 husbandH2860 are you to me.
26
So he let him go:H7503 thenH227 she said,H559 A bloodyH1818 husbandH2860 you are, because of the circumcision.H4139
27
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to Aaron,H175 GoH3212 into the wildernessH4057 to meetH7125 Moses.H4872 And he went,H3212 and metH6298 him in the mountH2022 of God,H430 and kissedH5401 him.
28
And MosesH4872 toldH5046 AaronH175 allH3605 the wordsH1697 of the LORDH3068 whoH834 had sentH7971 him, and allH3605 the signsH226 whichH834 he had commandedH6680 him.
29
And MosesH4872 and AaronH175 wentH3212 and gatheredH622 together allH3605 the eldersH2205 of the childrenH1121 of Israel:H3478
30
And AaronH175 spokeH1696 allH3605 the wordsH1697 whichH834 the LORDH3068 had spokenH1696 to Moses,H4872 and didH6213 the signsH226 in the sightH5869 of the people.H5971
31
And the peopleH5971 believed:H539 and when they heardH8085 that the LORDH3068 had visitedH6485 the childrenH1121 of Israel,H3478 and that he had lookedH7200 on their affliction,H6040 then they bowedH6915 their heads and worshipped.H7812
