Exodus 4

1And MosesH4872 answeredH559 and saidH559, But, beholdH2005, they will notH3808 believeH539 meH413, norH3808 hearken unto my voiceH6963: for they will sayH559, The LORDH3068 hath notH3808 appearedH7200 unto thee. 2And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto him, WhatH2088 is that in thine handH3027? And he saidH559, A rodH4294. 3And he saidH559, CastH7993 it on the groundH776. And he castH7993 it on the groundH776, and it becameH1961 a serpentH5175; and MosesH4872 fledH5127 from beforeH6440 it. 4And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, PutH7971 forthH7971 thine handH3027, and takeH2388 it by the tailH2180: (and he putH7971 forthH7971 his handH3027, and laidH7971 holdH2388 of it, and it becameH1961 a rodH4294 in his handH3027:) 5that they may believeH539 that the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of their fathersH1, the GodH430 of AbrahamH85, the GodH430 of IsaacH3327, and the GodH430 of JacobH3290, hath appearedH7200 unto thee. 6And the LORDH3068 saidH559 furthermoreH5750 unto him, PutH935 nowH4994 thine handH3027 intoH935 thy bosomH2436. And he putH935 his handH3027 intoH935 his bosomH2436: and when he tookH3318 it outH3318, beholdH2009, his handH3027 was leprousH6879, as white as snowH7950. 7And he saidH559, PutH7725 thine handH3027 intoH413 thy bosomH2436 againH7725. (And he putH7725 his handH3027 intoH413 his bosomH2436 againH7725; and when he tookH3318 it outH3318 of his bosomH2436, beholdH2009, it was turnedH7725 againH7725 as his other fleshH1320.) 8And it shall comeH1961 to passH1961, ifH518 they will notH3808 believeH539 thee, neitherH3808 hearken to the voiceH6963 of the firstH7223 signH226, that they will believeH539 the voiceH6963 of the latterH314 signH226. 9And it shall comeH1961 to passH1961, ifH518 they will notH3808 believeH539 evenH1571 theseH428 twoH8147 signsH226, neitherH3808 hearken unto thy voiceH6963, that thou shalt takeH3947 of the waterH4325 of the riverH2975, and pourH8210 it uponH1961 the dryH3004 landH3004: and the waterH4325 whichH834 thou takest outH4480 of the riverH2975 shall becomeH1961 bloodH1818 uponH1961 the dryH3004 landH3004. 10And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto the LORDH3068, Oh LordH3068, I am notH3808 eloquent, neitherH3808 heretofore, norH3808 sinceH3588 thou hast spokenH1696 unto thy servantH5650: for I am slowH3515 of speechH6310, and of a slowH3515 tongueH3956. 11And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto him, Who hath madeH7760 man’sH120 mouthH6310? or who maketh a manH120 dumb, or deafH2795, or seeingH6493, or blindH5787? is it notH3808 I the LORDH3068? 12NowH6258 therefore goH1961, and I will be with thy mouthH6310, and teachH3384 thee whatH834 thou shalt speakH1696. 13And he saidH559, OhH4994 LordH136, sendH7971, I prayH4994 thee, by the handH3027 of him whom thou wilt sendH7971. 14And the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 was kindledH2734 againstH2734 MosesH4872, and he saidH559, Is there notH3808 AaronH175 thy brotherH251 the LeviteH3881? I knowH3045 that he canH7200 speakH1696 wellH1571. And also, beholdH2009, he cometh forthH3318 to meetH7125 thee: and when he seeth thee, he will be gladH8055 in his heartH3820. 15And thou shalt speakH1696 unto him, and putH7760 the wordsH1697 in his mouthH6310: and I will be with thy mouthH6310, and with his mouthH6310, and will teachH3384 youH834 whatH834 ye shall doH6213. 16And he shall be thy spokesmanH6310 unto the peopleH5971: and it shall comeH1961 to passH1961, that he shall be to thee a mouthH6310, and thou shalt be to him as GodH430. 17And thou shalt takeH3947 in thine handH3027 this rodH4294, wherewith thou shalt doH6213 the signsH226. 18And MosesH4872 wentH7725 and returnedH7725 to JethroH3503 his father in law, and saidH559 unto him, LetH4994 meH413 goH7725, I prayH4994 thee, and returnH7725 unto my brethrenH251 whichH834 are in EgyptH4714, and seeH7200 whetherH7200 they be yet aliveH2416. And JethroH3503 saidH559 to MosesH4872, GoH7725 in peaceH7965. 19And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872 in MidianH4080, GoH7725, returnH7725 intoH413 EgyptH4714: for allH3605 the menH376 are deadH4191 which soughtH1245 thy lifeH5315. 20And MosesH4872 tookH3947 his wifeH802 and his sonsH1121, and setH7725 them uponH5921 an ass, and he returnedH7725 to the landH776 of EgyptH4714: and MosesH4872 tookH3947 the rodH4294 of GodH430 in his handH3027. 21And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, When thou goest backH7725 intoH413 EgyptH4714, seeH7200 that thou doH6213 beforeH6440 PharaohH6547 allH3605 the wondersH4159 whichH834 I have putH7760 in thine handH3027: but I will hardenH2388 his heartH3820, and he will notH3808 letH7971 the peopleH5971 goH7971. 22And thou shalt sayH559 unto PharaohH6547, ThusH3541 saith the LORDH3068, IsraelH3478 is my sonH1121, my firstbornH1060: 23and I have saidH559 unto thee, LetH7971 my sonH1121 goH7971, that he may serveH5647 meH413; and thou hast refusedH3985 to letH7971 him goH7971: beholdH2009, I will slayH2026 thy sonH1121, thy firstbornH1060. 24And it cameH1961 to passH1961 on the wayH1870 at the lodgingH4411 placeH1961, that the LORDH3068 metH6298 him, and soughtH1245 to killH4191 him. 25Then ZipporahH6855 tookH3947 a flintH6864, and cutH3772 offH3772 the foreskinH6190 of herH3947 sonH1121, and castH5060 it at his feetH7272; and sheH3588 saidH559, SurelyH3588 a bridegroom of bloodH1818 art thou to meH3947. 26SoH4480 he letH7503 him aloneH7503. Then sheH227 saidH559, A bridegroom of bloodH1818 art thou, becauseH4480 of the circumcisionH4139. 27And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to AaronH175, Go intoH413 the wildernessH4057 to meetH6298 MosesH4872. And he wentH7125, and metH6298 him in the mountainH2022 of GodH430, and kissedH5401 him. 28And MosesH4872 toldH5046 AaronH175 allH3605 the wordsH1697 of the LORDH3068 wherewith he had sentH7971 him, and allH3605 the signsH226 wherewith he had chargedH6680 him. 29And MosesH4872 and AaronH175 went and gatheredH622 togetherH622 allH3605 the eldersH2205 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478: 30and AaronH175 spake allH3605 the wordsH1697 whichH834 the LORDH3068 had spokenH1696 unto MosesH4872, and didH6213 the signsH226 in the sightH5869 of the peopleH5971. 31And the peopleH5971 believedH539: and when they heardH8085 that the LORDH3068 had visitedH6485 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and that he had seenH7200 their affliction, then they bowedH7812 their heads and worshipped.
