Exodus 3

1Now MosesH4872 keptH1961H7462 the flockH6629 of JethroH3503 his father in lawH2859, the priestH3548 of MidianH4080: and he ledH5090 the flockH6629 to the backsideH310 of the desertH4057, and cameH935 to the mountainH2022 of GodH430, even to HorebH2722. 2And the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068 appearedH7200 to him in a flameH3827 of fireH784 out of the midstH8432 of a bushH5572: and he lookedH7200, and, behold, the bushH5572 burnedH1197 with fireH784, and the bushH5572 was not consumedH398. 3And MosesH4872 saidH559, I will now turn asideH5493, and seeH7200 this greatH1419 sightH4758, whyH4069 the bushH5572 is not burntH1197. 4And when the LORDH3068 sawH7200 that he turned asideH5493 to seeH7200, GodH430 calledH7121 to him out of the midstH8432 of the bushH5572, and saidH559, MosesH4872, MosesH4872. And he saidH559, Here am I. 5And he saidH559, Come not nearH7126 hereH1988: put offH5394 thy shoesH5275 from thy feetH7272, for the placeH4725 on whichH834 thou standestH5975 is holyH6944 groundH127. 6Moreover he saidH559, I am the GodH430 of thy fatherH1, the GodH430 of AbrahamH85, the GodH430 of IsaacH3327, and the GodH430 of JacobH3290. And MosesH4872 hidH5641 his faceH6440; for he was afraidH3372 to lookH5027 upon GodH430.

7And the LORDH3068 saidH559, I have surelyH7200 seenH7200 the afflictionH6040 of my peopleH5971 who are in EgyptH4714, and have heardH8085 their cryH6818 by reasonH6440 of their taskmastersH5065; for I knowH3045 their sorrowsH4341; 8And I am come downH3381 to deliverH5337 them from the handH3027 of the EgyptiansH4714, and to bringH5927 them up out of that landH776 to a goodH2896 landH776 and a largeH7342, to a landH776 flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706; to 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 to me: and I have also seenH7200 the oppressionH3906 with which the EgyptiansH4714 oppressH3905 them. 10ComeH3212 now therefore, and I will sendH7971 thee to PharaohH6547, that thou mayest bring forthH3318 my peopleH5971 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 out of EgyptH4714.

11And MosesH4872 saidH559 to GodH430, Who am I, that I should goH3212 to 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 to 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 to GodH430, Behold, when I comeH935 to the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and shall sayH559 to them, The GodH430 of your fathersH1 hath sentH7971 me to you; and they shall sayH559 to me, What is his nameH8034? what shall I sayH559 to them? 14And GodH430 saidH559 to MosesH4872, I AMH1961 THAT I AMH1961: and he saidH559, Thus shalt thou sayH559 to the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, I AM hath sentH7971 me to you. 15And GodH430 saidH559 moreoverH5750 to MosesH4872, Thus shalt thou sayH559 to the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, The LORDH3068 GodH430 of your fathersH1, the GodH430 of AbrahamH85, the GodH430 of IsaacH3327, and the GodH430 of JacobH3290, hath sentH7971 me to you: this is my nameH8034 for everH5769, and this is my memorialH2143 to allH1755 generationsH1755.

16GoH3212, and gatherH622 the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 togetherH622, and sayH559 to them, The LORDH3068 GodH430 of your fathersH1, the GodH430 of AbrahamH85, of IsaacH3327, and of JacobH3290, appearedH7200 to 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 to the landH776 of the CanaanitesH3669, and the HittitesH2850, and the AmoritesH567, and the PerizzitesH6522, and the HivitesH2340, and the JebusitesH2983, to a landH776 flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706. 18And they shall hearkenH8085 to thy voiceH6963: and thou shalt comeH935, thou and the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478, to the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and ye shall sayH559 to him, The LORDH3068 GodH430 of the HebrewsH5680 hath metH7136 with us: and now let us goH3212, we beseech thee, threeH7969 daysH3117’ journeyH1870 into the wildernessH4057, that we may sacrificeH2076 to the LORDH3068 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 its midstH7130: and afterH310 that he will let you goH7971. 21And I will giveH5414 this peopleH5971 favourH2580 in the sightH5869 of the EgyptiansH4714: and it shall come to pass, that, when ye goH3212, ye shall not goH3212 emptyH7387: 22But every womanH802 shall askH7592 of her neighbourH7934, and of her that dwellethH1481 in her houseH1004, jewelsH3627 of silverH3701, and jewelsH3627 of goldH2091, and raimentH8071: and ye shall putH7760 them upon your sonsH1121, and upon your daughtersH1323; and ye shall plunderH5337 the EgyptiansH4714.2
