God
Promises Deliverance (continued)
1 Then the LORD said unto Moses, Now shalt thou
see what I will do to Pharaoh: for with a strong hand shall
he let them go, and with a strong hand shall he drive them
out of his land.
2 And God spake unto Moses, and said unto him, I am the
LORD:
3 And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto
Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH
was I not known to them.
4 And I have also established my covenant with them, to
give them the land of Canaan, the land of their pilgrimage,
wherein they were strangers.
5 And I have also heard the groaning of the children of
Israel, whom the Egyptians keep in bondage; and I have
remembered my covenant.
6 Wherefore say unto the children of Israel, I am the
LORD, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the
Egyptians, and I will rid you out of their bondage, and I
will redeem you with a stretched out arm, and with great
judgments:
7 And I will take you to me for a people, and I will be
to you a God: and ye shall know that I am the LORD your God,
which bringeth you out from under the burdens of the
Egyptians.
8 And I will bring you in unto the land, concerning the
which I did swear to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to
Jacob; and I will give it you for an heritage: I am the
LORD.
9 And Moses spake so unto the children of Israel: but
they hearkened not unto Moses for anguish of spirit, and for
cruel bondage.
10 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
11 Go in, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, that he let
the children of Israel go out of his land.
12 And Moses spake before the LORD, saying, Behold, the
children of Israel have not hearkened unto me; how then
shall Pharaoh hear me, who am of uncircumcised lips?

speak thou unto Pharaoh king of Egypt all that I say unto

uncircumcised lips, and how shall Pharaoh hearken unto me? |
