Berean Standard Bible
And
Moses hath
been
feeding
the flock of Jethro
his father-in-law, priest of Midian ,
and
he leadeth
the flock behind
the wilderness ,
and cometh
in
unto
the mount
of God ,
to
Horeb;
Meanwhile,
Moses was
shepherding
the flock of his father-in-law Jethro
, the
priest of Midian .
He led
the flock to
the far
side
of
the
wilderness and came
to
Horeb,
the mountain
of God .
and
there appeareth
unto
him
a
messenger
of Jehovah
in a flame
of
fire ,
out
of
the
midst
of
the
bush ,
and
he
seeth,
and
lo,
the bush is
burning
with fire, and
the
bush
is
not consumed.
There the
angel
of the
LORD
appeared
to
him
in a blazing
fire from
within
a
bush .
Moses
saw
the bush ablaze
with fire, but
it
was
not consumed.
And
Moses saith,
`Let
me
turn
aside
, I pray
thee,
and I
see this great
appearance;
wherefore
is the bush not burned
? '
So
Moses thought
, “
I must
go
over
and see this marvelous
sight.
Why
is the bush not burning
up
? ”
and
Jehovah
seeth
that he hath
turned
aside
to see
, and
God calleth
unto
him
out of
the
midst
of
the bush, and
saith,
`
Moses, Moses ;'
and
he
saith,
`
Here `am'
I. '
When
the
LORD
saw
that he had
gone
over
to look
, God called
out to
him
from
within
the bush, “
Moses, Moses !”
“
Here I am,”
he
answered
.
And
He
saith,
`Come
not near
hither:
cast
thy
shoes
from
off thy
feet
, for the place on
which
thou
art
standing is holy ground. '
“Do
not come
any
closer,”
God
said.
“Take
off your
sandals
, for the place where
you
are
standing is holy ground. ”
He saith
also
, `
I `
am '
the God of thy
father, God of Abraham, God of Isaac, and God of Jacob ;'
and
Moses hideth
his face, for he is
afraid to look towards
God.
Then
He said
, “
I am the God of your
father, the
God of Abraham, the
God of Isaac, and the
God of Jacob .”
At
this,
Moses hid
his face, for he was
afraid to look at
God.
And
Jehovah
saith
, `
I have certainly
seen the affliction of My people who
`are'
in Egypt ,
and
their
cry
I have heard ,
because of its
exactors
, for
I have
known
its
pains;
The
LORD
said
, “
I have indeed
seen the affliction of My people in Egypt .
I have heard them
crying
out
because of their
oppressors
, and
I am
aware
of
their
sufferings.
and
I go
down to deliver
it
out
of
the hand of the Egyptians ,
and to cause
it
to
go
up out of the
land ,
unto
a land
good and broad
, unto
a land flowing with milk and honey --
unto
the place
of the Canaanite
, and
the
Hittite
, and
the
Amorite
, and
the
Perizzite
, and
the
Hivite
, and the
Jebusite
.
I have
come
down to rescue
them
from
the hand of the Egyptians and to bring
them
up out of that
land to
a good and spacious
land
, a land flowing with milk and honey —
the home
of the Canaanites
, Hittites
, Amorites
, Perizzites
, Hivites
, and Jebusites
.
`
And now ,
lo,
the cry of the sons
of
Israel
hath
come
in
unto
Me, and I have also
seen the
oppression
with
which
the Egyptians are oppressing them ,
And now the cry of the Israelites
has
reached
Me, and I have seen how
severely
the Egyptians are oppressing them .
and
now,
come
, and
I send
thee
unto
Pharaoh ,
and
bring thou
out
My people ,
the sons
of
Israel,
out of Egypt. '
Therefore
, go!
I am
sending
you
to
Pharaoh to
bring My people the Israelites
out of Egypt. ”
And
Moses saith
unto
God, `
Who `
am '
I, that I go unto
Pharaoh ,
and that
I
bring out
the sons
of Israel
from
Egypt? '
But
Moses asked
God, “
Who am I, that I should
go to
Pharaoh and bring the Israelites
out
of Egypt? ”
and
He
saith,
`Because
I am
with thee
, and this `is'
to
thee
the sign that I have sent thee
: in
thy
bringing
out
the people from
Egypt --
ye
do
serve
God on this mount
. '
“
I will
surely
be
with you
, ”
God
said,
“
and this will
be
the sign to
you
that I have sent you
: When
you
have
brought
the people out
of
Egypt ,
all
of
you
will
worship
God on this mountain
. ”
And
Moses saith
unto
God, `Lo,
I am
coming
unto
the sons
of
Israel,
and have
said
to them, The God of your fathers hath
sent me unto
you, and they have
said
to
me, What `
is '
His name? what do
I say
unto
them? '
Then
Moses asked
God, “Suppose
I go
to
the Israelites
and say
to them, ‘
The God of your fathers has
sent me to
you, ’
and they ask
me, ‘
What is His name? ’
What should
I tell
them? ”
And
God saith
unto
Moses, `
I AM THAT
WHICH
I AM ;'
He
saith
also,
`Thus
dost
thou
say to the sons
of
Israel,
I AM hath
sent me unto
you. '
God said
to
Moses, “
I AM WHO
I AM .
This
is
what
you
are
to
say to the Israelites:
‘
I AM has
sent me to
you. ’”
And
God saith
again
unto
Moses, `Thus
dost
thou
say unto
the sons
of
Israel
, Jehovah
, God of your fathers ,
God of Abraham, God of Isaac, and God of Jacob ,
hath
sent me unto
you ;
this `
is '
My name --
to
the
age
, and this My
memorial,
to generation
--
generation.
God also
told
Moses, “
Say to
the Israelites
, ‘The
LORD
, the
God of your fathers —the
God of Abraham, the
God of Isaac, and the
God of Jacob —has
sent me to
you .’
This is My name forever
, and this is
how
I
am
to be
remembered
in
every
generation.
`
Go, and
thou
hast
gathered
the elders of Israel ,
and hast
said
unto
them :
Jehovah
, God of your fathers ,
hath
appeareth
unto
me,
God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob ,
saying,
I have certainly
inspected
you ,
and that
which
is
done to you in Egypt ;
Go, assemble
the elders of Israel and say
to
them, ‘The
LORD,
the
God of your fathers —the
God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob —has
appeared
to
me
and
said:
I have surely
attended
to
you and have
seen
what
has
been
done to you in Egypt .
and I say,
I
bring you up out of the
affliction of
Egypt, unto
the land of the Canaanite
, and
the
Hittite
, and
the
Amorite
, and
the
Perizzite
, and
the
Hivite
, and the
Jebusite,
unto
a land flowing `
with '
milk and honey.
And I have
promised
to
bring you up out of your
affliction in
Egypt, into
the land of the Canaanites
, Hittites
, Amorites
, Perizzites
, Hivites
, and Jebusites—
a land flowing with milk and honey. ’
`And
they
have
hearkened
to
thy
voice,
and
thou
hast
entered,
thou
and
the elders of Israel, unto
the king of Egypt ,
and ye
have
said
unto
him, Jehovah
, God of the Hebrews, hath
met with us ;
and
now ,
let us go,
we
pray
thee,
a journey
of
three days
into the wilderness, and
we sacrifice to Jehovah
our God.
The elders of Israel will
listen
to
what
you
say
, and
you
must
go
with
them
to
the king of Egypt and tell
him, ‘The
LORD
, the
God of the Hebrews, has
met with us .
Now please
let us take
a three -day
journey
into the wilderness, so
that
we may
sacrifice to the
LORD
our God. ’
`And
I
--
I have
known
that the king of Egypt doth
not permit
you to go ,
unless by
a strong
hand ,
But
I know
that the king of Egypt will
not allow
you to go unless a mighty
hand compels
him.
and
I have
put
forth
My hand ,
and have
smitten
Egypt
with all My
wonders ,
which
I do
in
its
midst
--
and afterwards
he doth
send
you away
.
So
I will
stretch
out
My hand and strike
the
Egyptians
with all the
wonders I will
perform
among
them.
And after
that,
he will
release
you.
`
And I have
given
the
grace
of
this people in the eyes
of the Egyptians ,
and
it
hath
come
to
pass,
when ye
go
, ye
go
not empty ;
And I will
grant
this people such
favor
in the sight
of the Egyptians that
when you
leave
, you
will
not go
away
empty -handed.
and
`
every '
woman hath
asked
from
her neighbour,
and from
her
who
is
sojourning
in her house ,
vessels
of
silver ,
and vessels
of
gold ,
and garments
, and ye
have
put `
them '
on your sons and on
your
daughters ,
and
have
spoiled
the Egyptians. '
Every woman shall
ask
her neighbor
and any
woman
staying
in her house for
silver and gold jewelry
and clothing
, and you
will
put them on your sons and daughters .
So
you
will
plunder
the Egyptians. ”
