| 4:1 | And Moses <04872> answered <06030> (8799) and said <0559> (8799), But, behold, they will not believe <0539> (8686) me, nor hearken <08085> (8799) unto my voice <06963>: for they will say <0559> (8799), The LORD <03068> hath not appeared <07200> (8738) unto thee. |
| 4:2 | And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799) unto him, What [is] that in thine hand <03027>? And he said <0559> (8799), A rod <04294>. |
| 4:3 | And he said <0559> (8799), Cast <07993> (8685) it on the ground <0776>. And he cast <07993> (8686) it on the ground <0776>, and it became a serpent <05175>; and Moses <04872> fled <05127> (8799) from before <06440> it. |
| 4:4 | And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799) unto Moses <04872>, Put forth <07971> (8798) thine hand <03027>, and take <0270> (8798) it by the tail <02180>. And he put forth <07971> (8799) his hand <03027>, and caught <02388> (8686) it, and it became a rod <04294> in his hand <03709>: |
| 4:5 | That they may believe <0539> (8686) that the LORD <03068> God <0430> of their fathers <01>, the God <0430> of Abraham <085>, the God <0430> of Isaac <03327>, and the God <0430> of Jacob <03290>, hath appeared <07200> (8738) unto thee. |
| 4:6 | And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799) furthermore <05750> unto him, Put <0935> (8685) now thine hand <03027> into thy bosom <02436>. And he put <0935> (8686) his hand <03027> into his bosom <02436>: and when he took <03318> (8686) it out, behold, his hand <03027> [was] leprous <06879> (8794) as snow <07950>. |
| 4:7 | And he said <0559> (8799), Put <07725> (0) thine hand <03027> into thy bosom <02436> again <07725> (8685). And he put <07725> (0) his hand <03027> into his bosom <02436> again <07725> (8686); and plucked <03318> (8686) it out of his bosom <02436>, and, behold, it was turned again <07725> (8804) as his [other] flesh <01320>. |
| 4:8 | And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe <0539> (8686) thee, neither hearken <08085> (8799) to the voice <06963> of the first <07223> sign <0226>, that they will believe <0539> (8689) the voice <06963> of the latter <0314> sign <0226>. |
| 4:9 | And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe <0539> (8686) also these two <08147> signs <0226>, neither hearken <08085> (8799) unto thy voice <06963>, that thou shalt take <03947> (8804) of the water <04325> of the river <02975>, and pour <08210> (8804) [it] upon the dry <03004> [land]: and the water <04325> which thou takest <03947> (8799) out of the river <02975> shall become blood <01818> upon the dry <03006> [land]. {shall become: Heb. shall be and shall be} |
| 4:10 | And Moses <04872> said <0559> (8799) unto the LORD <03068>, O <0994> my Lord <0136>, I <0376> [am] not eloquent <01697>, neither heretofore <08032> <08543>, nor since <0227> thou hast spoken <01696> (8763) unto thy servant <05650>: but I [am] slow <03515> of speech <06310>, and of a slow <03515> tongue <03956>. {eloquent: Heb. a man of words} {heretofore: Heb. since yesterday, nor since the third day} |
| 4:11 | And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799) unto him, Who hath made <07760> (8804) man's <0120> mouth <06310>? or who maketh <07760> (8799) the dumb <0483>, or deaf <02795>, or the seeing <06493>, or the blind <05787>? have not I the LORD <03068>? |
| 4:12 | Now therefore go <03212> (8798), and I will be with thy mouth <06310>, and teach <03384> (8689) thee what thou shalt say <01696> (8762). |
| 4:13 | And he said <0559> (8799), O <0994> my Lord <0136>, send <07971> (8798), I pray thee, by the hand <03027> [of him whom] thou wilt send <07971> (8799). {wilt: or, shouldest} |
| 4:14 | And the anger <0639> of the LORD <03068> was kindled <02734> (8799) against Moses <04872>, and he said <0559> (8799), [Is] not Aaron <0175> the Levite <03881> thy brother <0251>? I know <03045> (8804) that he can speak <01696> (8762) well <01696> (8763). And also, behold, he cometh forth <03318> (8802) to meet <07125> (8800) thee: and when he seeth <07200> (8804) thee, he will be glad <08055> (8804) in his heart <03820>. |
| 4:15 | And thou shalt speak <01696> (8765) unto him, and put <07760> (8804) words <01697> in his mouth <06310>: and I will be with thy mouth <06310>, and with his mouth <06310>, and will teach <03384> (8689) you what ye shall do <06213> (8799). |
| 4:16 | And he shall be thy spokesman <01696> (8765) unto the people <05971>: and he shall be, [even] he shall be to thee instead of a mouth <06310>, and thou shalt be to him instead of God <0430>. |
| 4:17 | And thou shalt take <03947> (8799) this rod <04294> in thine hand <03027>, wherewith thou shalt do <06213> (8799) signs <0226>. |
| 4:18 | And Moses <04872> went <03212> (8799) and returned <07725> (8799) to Jethro <03500> his father in law <02859> (8802), and said <0559> (8799) unto him, Let me go <03212> (8799), I pray thee, and return <07725> (8799) unto my brethren <0251> which [are] in Egypt <04714>, and see <07200> (8799) whether they be yet <05750> alive <02416>. And Jethro <03503> said <0559> (8799) to Moses <04872>, Go <03212> (8798) in peace <07965>. {Jethro: Heb. Jether} |
| 4:19 | And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799) unto Moses <04872> in Midian <04080>, Go <03212> (8798), return <07725> (8798) into Egypt <04714>: for all the men <0582> are dead <04191> (8804) which sought <01245> (8764) thy life <05315>. |
| 4:20 | And Moses <04872> took <03947> (8799) his wife <0802> and his sons <01121>, and set <07392> (8686) them upon an ass <02543>, and he returned <07725> (8799) to the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>: and Moses <04872> took <03947> (8799) the rod <04294> of God <0430> in his hand <03027>. |
| 4:21 | And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799) unto Moses <04872>, When thou goest <03212> (8800) to return <07725> (8800) into Egypt <04714>, see <07200> (8798) that thou do <06213> (8804) all those wonders <04159> before <06440> Pharaoh <06547>, which I have put <07760> (8804) in thine hand <03027>: but I will harden <02388> (8762) his heart <03820>, that he shall not let the people <05971> go <07971> (8762). |
| 4:22 | And thou shalt say <0559> (8804) unto Pharaoh <06547>, Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>, Israel <03478> [is] my son <01121>, [even] my firstborn <01060>: |
| 4:23 | And I say <0559> (8799) unto thee, Let my son <01121> go <07971> (8761), that he may serve <05647> (8799) me: and if thou refuse <03985> (8762) to let him go <07971> (8763), behold, I will slay <02026> (8802) thy son <01121>, [even] thy firstborn <01060>. |
| 4:24 | And it came to pass by the way <01870> in the inn <04411>, that the LORD <03068> met <06298> (8799) him, and sought <01245> (8762) to kill <04191> (8687) him. |
| 4:25 | Then Zipporah <06855> took <03947> (8799) a sharp stone <06864>, and cut off <03772> (8799) the foreskin <06190> of her son <01121>, and cast <05060> (8686) [it] at his feet <07272>, and said <0559> (8799), Surely a bloody <01818> husband <02860> [art] thou to me. {sharp...: or, knife} {cast...: Heb. made it touch} |
| 4:26 | So he let him go <07503> (8799): then she said <0559> (8804), A bloody <01818> husband <02860> [thou art], because of the circumcision <04139>. |
| 4:27 | And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799) to Aaron <0175>, Go <03212> (8798) into the wilderness <04057> to meet <07125> (8800) Moses <04872>. And he went <03212> (8799), and met <06298> (8799) him in the mount <02022> of God <0430>, and kissed <05401> (8799) him. |
| 4:28 | And Moses <04872> told <05046> (8686) Aaron <0175> all the words <01697> of the LORD <03068> who had sent <07971> (8804) him, and all the signs <0226> which he had commanded <06680> (8765) him. |
| 4:29 | And Moses <04872> and Aaron <0175> went <03212> (8799) and gathered together <0622> (8799) all the elders <02205> of the children <01121> of Israel <03478>: |
| 4:30 | And Aaron <0175> spake <01696> (8762) all the words <01697> which the LORD <03068> had spoken <01696> (8765) unto Moses <04872>, and did <06213> (8799) the signs <0226> in the sight <05869> of the people <05971>. |
| 4:31 | And the people <05971> believed <0539> (8686): and when they heard <08085> (8799) that the LORD <03068> had visited <06485> (8804) the children <01121> of Israel <03478>, and that he had looked <07200> (8804) upon their affliction <06040>, then they bowed their heads <06915> (8799) and worshipped <07812> (8691). |
