16GoH3212, and gatherH622 the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 togetherH622, and sayH559 unto them, YhwhH3068 GodH430 of your fathersH1, the GodH430 of AbrahamH85, of IsaacH3327, and of JacobH3290, appearedH7200 unto me, sayingH559, I have surelyH6485 visitedH6485 you, and seen that which is doneH6213 to you in EgyptH4714: 17And I have saidH559, I will bringH5927 you up out of the afflictionH6040 of EgyptH4714 unto the landH776 of the CanaanitesH3669, and the HittitesH2850, and the AmoritesH567, and the PerizzitesH6522, and the HivitesH2340, and the JebusitesH2983, unto a landH776 flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706. 18And they shall hearkenH8085 to thy voiceH6963: and thou shalt comeH935, thou and the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478, unto the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and ye shall sayH559 unto him, YhwhH3068 GodH430 of the HebrewsH5680 hath metH7136 with us: and now let us goH3212, we beseech thee, threeH7969 days’H3117 journeyH1870 into the wildernessH4057, that we may sacrificeH2076 to YhwhH3068 our GodH430.

19And I am sureH3045 that the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 will not letH5414 you goH1980, no, not by a mightyH2389 handH3027.1 20And I will stretch outH7971 my handH3027, and smiteH5221 EgyptH4714 with all my wondersH6381 which I will doH6213 in the midstH7130 thereof: and afterH310 that he will let you goH7971.
