11But MosesH4872 saidH559 to GodH430, “1WhoH4310 am I, that I should goH1980 to PharaohH6547, and that I should bringH3318 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 outH3318 of EgyptH4714?” 12And He saidH559, “AssuredlyH3588 2I will be with you, and thisH2088 shall be the signH226 to you that it is I who have sentH7971 you: 3when you have broughtH3318 the peopleH5971 outH3318 of EgyptH4714, 4you shall 5worshipH5647 GodH430 at thisH2088 mountainH2022.”

13Then MosesH4872 saidH559 to GodH430, “BeholdH2009, I am goingH935 to the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, and I will sayH559 to them, ‘The GodH430 of your fathersH1 has sentH7971 me to you.’ Now they may sayH559 to me, ‘WhatH4100 is His nameH8034?’ WhatH4100 shall I sayH559 to them?” 14And GodH430 saidH559 to MosesH4872, “67I AMH1961 WHOH834 8I AMH1961”; and He saidH559, “ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 you shall sayH559 to the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478: ‘9I AMH1961 has sentH7971 me to you.’” 15GodH430 furthermoreH5750 saidH559 to MosesH4872, “ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 you shall sayH559 to the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478: ‘10The LordH3068, the GodH430 of your fathersH1, the GodH430 of AbrahamH85, the GodH430 of IsaacH3327, and the GodH430 of JacobH3290, has sentH7971 me to you.’ ThisH2088 is My nameH8034 foreverH5769, and thisH2088 is the 1112nameH2143 for 13allH1755 generationsH1755 to use to callH2143 uponH2143 Me.
