Exodus 3:6-13
6And He saidH559, “1I am the GodH430 of your fatherH1--the GodH430 of AbrahamH85, the GodH430 of IsaacH3327, and the GodH430 of JacobH3290.” 2Then MosesH4872 hidH5641 his faceH6440, for he wasH3372 3afraidH3372 to lookH5027 at GodH430.
7And the LordH3068 saidH559, “I have certainlyH7200 4seenH7200 the oppressionH6040 of My peopleH5971 whoH834 are in EgyptH4714, and have heardH8085 their outcryH6818 becauseH4480H6440 of their taskmastersH5065, for I amH3045 awareH3045 of their sufferingsH4341. 8So I have comeH3381 downH3381 5to rescueH5337 them from the 6powerH3027 of the EgyptiansH4714, and to bringH5927 them upH5927 from that landH776 to a 7goodH2896 and spaciousH7342 landH776, to a landH776 flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706, to the placeH4725 of 8the CanaaniteH3669, the HittiteH2850, the AmoriteH567, the PerizziteH6522, the HiviteH2340, and the JebusiteH2983. 9And nowH6258, beholdH2009, 9the cryH6818 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 has comeH935 to Me; furthermoreH1571, I have seenH7200 the oppressionH3906 with whichH834 the EgyptiansH4714 are oppressingH3905 them. 10And nowH6258 comeH1980, and I will sendH7971 you to PharaohH6547, 10so that you may bringH3318 My peopleH5971, the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, out of EgyptH4714.” 11But MosesH4872 saidH559 to GodH430, “11WhoH4310 am I, that I should goH1980 to PharaohH6547, and that I should bringH3318 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 outH3318 of EgyptH4714?” 12And He saidH559, “AssuredlyH3588 12I will be with you, and thisH2088 shall be the signH226 to you that it is I who have sentH7971 you: 13when you have broughtH3318 the peopleH5971 outH3318 of EgyptH4714, 14you shall 15worshipH5647 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?”
