Exodus 3:5-10

5Then He said, “Do not come near here; 1remove your sandals from your feet, for the place on which you are standing is holy ground.” 6And He said, “2I am the God of your father--the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” 3Then Moses hid his face, for he was 4afraid to look at God.

7And the Lord said, “I have certainly 5seen the oppression of My people who are in Egypt, and have heard their outcry because of their taskmasters, for I am aware of their sufferings. 8So I have come down 6to rescue them from the 7power of the Egyptians, and to bring them up from that land to a 8good and spacious land, to a land flowing with milk and honey, to the place of 9the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite. 9And now, behold, 10the cry of the sons of Israel has come to Me; furthermore, I have seen the oppression with which the Egyptians are oppressing them. 10And now come, and I will send you to Pharaoh, 11so that you may bring My people, the sons of Israel, out of Egypt.”
