Exodus 3:8-17

8And I am come downH3381 to deliverH5337 them out of the handH3027 of the EgyptiansH4714, and to bringH5927 them up out of that landH776 unto a goodH2896 landH776 and a largeH7342, unto a landH776 flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706; unto the placeH4725 of the CanaanitesH3669, and the HittitesH2850, and the AmoritesH567, and the PerizzitesH6522, and the HivitesH2340, and the JebusitesH2983. 9Now therefore, behold, the cryH6818 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 is comeH935 unto me: and I have also seenH7200 the oppressionH3906 wherewith the EgyptiansH4714 oppressH3905 them. 10ComeH3212 now therefore, and I will sendH7971 thee unto PharaohH6547, that thou mayest bring forthH3318 my peopleH5971 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 out of EgyptH4714.

11And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto GodH430, Who am I, that I should goH3212 unto PharaohH6547, and that I should bring forthH3318 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 out of EgyptH4714? 12And he saidH559, Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be a tokenH226 unto thee, thatH3588 I have sentH7971 thee: When thou hast brought forthH3318 the peopleH5971 out of EgyptH4714, ye shall serveH5647 GodH430 upon this mountainH2022. 13And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto GodH430, Behold, when I comeH935 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and shall sayH559 unto them, The GodH430 of your fathersH1 hath sentH7971 me unto you; and they shall sayH559 to me, What is his nameH8034? what shall I sayH559 unto them? 14And GodH430 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, I AMH1961 THAT I AMH1961: and he saidH559, Thus shalt thou sayH559 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, I AM hath sentH7971 me unto you. 15And GodH430 saidH559 moreoverH5750 unto MosesH4872, Thus shalt thou sayH559 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, YhwhH3068 GodH430 of your fathersH1, the GodH430 of AbrahamH85, the GodH430 of IsaacH3327, and the GodH430 of JacobH3290, hath sentH7971 me unto you: this is my nameH8034 for everH5769, and this is my memorialH2143 unto allH1755 generationsH1755. 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.
