Exodus 3:2-14

2And the AngelH4397 of Jehovah appearedH7200 to him in a flame of fireH784 out of the midstH8432 of a thorn-bush: and he lookedH7200, and behold, the thorn-bush burnedH1197 with fireH784, and the thorn-bush was not being consumedH398.

3And MosesH4872 saidH559, Let me now turnH5493 asideH5493 and seeH7200 this greatH1419 sightH4758, whyH4069 the thorn-bush is not burnt.

4And Jehovah sawH7200 that he turnedH5493 asideH5493 to seeH7200, and 1GodH430 calledH7121 to him out of the midstH8432 of the thorn-bush and saidH559, MosesH4872, MosesH4872! And he saidH559, HereH2009 am I.

5And he saidH559, DrawH7126 not nigh hither: loose thy sandalsH5275 from off thy feetH7272, for the placeH4725 whereon thou standest is holyH6944 groundH127.

6And he saidH559, I am the 2GodH430 of thy fatherH1, the 3GodH430 of AbrahamH85, the 4GodH430 of IsaacH3327, and the 5GodH430 of JacobH3290. And MosesH4872 hidH5641 his faceH6440; for he was afraidH3372 to lookH5027 at 6GodH430.

7And Jehovah saidH559, I have seenH7200 assuredly the affliction of my peopleH5971 who are in EgyptH4714, and their cryH6818 have I heardH8085 on account of their taskmastersH5065; for I knowH3045 their sorrows.

8And I am comeH5927 down to deliverH5337 them out of the handH3027 of the EgyptiansH4713, and to bringH5927 them up out of that landH776 unto a goodH2896 and spacious landH776, unto a landH776 flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706, unto the placeH4725 of the CanaanitesH3669, and the HittitesH2850, and the AmoritesH567, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites.

9And nowH6258 behold, the cryH6818 of the children of IsraelH3478 is comeH935 unto me; and I have alsoH1571 seenH7200 the oppressionH3906 with which the EgyptiansH4713 oppressH3905 them.

10And nowH6258 comeH3318, and I will sendH7971 thee unto PharaohH6547, that thou mayest bringH3318 forthH3318 my peopleH5971 the children of IsraelH3478 out of EgyptH4714.

11And MosesH4872 saidH559 to 7GodH430, Who am I, that I should goH3318 unto PharaohH6547, and that I should bringH3318 forthH3318 the children of IsraelH3478 out of EgyptH4714?

12And he saidH559, For I will beH1961 with thee; and this shall beH1961 the signH226 to thee that I have sentH7971 thee: when thou hast broughtH3318 forthH3318 the peopleH5971 out of EgyptH4714, ye shall serveH5647 8GodH430 upon this mountainH2022.

13And MosesH4872 saidH559 to 9GodH430, Behold, [when] I comeH935 unto the children of IsraelH3478, and shall sayH559 unto them, The 10GodH430 of your fathersH1 hath sentH7971 me unto you; and they shall sayH559, What is his nameH8034? what shall I sayH559 unto them?

14And 11GodH430 saidH559 to MosesH4872, I AMH1961 THAT I AMH1961. And he saidH559, ThusH3541 shalt thou sayH559 unto the children of IsraelH3478: I AMH1961 hath sentH7971 me unto you.
