Exodus 6 — ENGLXXUP

6 Verse 1 And the Lord said to Moses, Now thou shalt see what I will do to Pharaoh; for he shall send them forth with a mighty hand, and with a high arm shall he cast them out of his land. ^{Verse 2} And God spoke to Moses and said to him, I am the Lord. ^{Verse 3} And I appeared to Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, being their God, but I did not manifest to them my name Lord. ^{Verse 4} And I established my covenant with them, to give them the land of the Canaanites, the land wherein they sojourned, in which also they dwelt as strangers. ^{Verse 5} And I hearkened to the groaning of the children of Israel (the affliction with which the Egyptians enslave them) and I remembered the covenant with you. ^{Verse 6} Go, speak to the children of Israel, saying, I am the Lord; and I will lead you forth from the tyranny of the Egyptians, and I will deliver you from bondage, and I will ransom you with a high arm, and great judgment. ^{Verse 7} And I will take you to me a people for myself, and will be your God; and ye shall know that I am the Lord your God, who brought you out from the tyranny of the Egyptians. ^{Verse 8} And I will bring you into the land concerning which I stretched out my hand to give it to Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, and I will give it you for an inheritance: I am the Lord. ^{Verse 9} And Moses spoke thus to the sons of Israel, and they hearkened not to Moses for faintheartedness, and for their hard tasks. ^{Verse 10} And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ^{Verse 11} Go in, speak to Pharaoh king of Egypt, that he send forth the children of Israel out of his land. ^{Verse 12} And Moses spoke before the Lord, saying, Behold, the children of Israel hearkened not to me, and how shall Pharaoh hearken to me? and I am not eloquent. ^{Verse 13} And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, and gave them a charge to Pharaoh king of Egypt, that he should send forth the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt. ^{Verse 14} And these are the heads of the houses of their families: the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel; Hanoch and Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi, this is the kindred of Reuben. ^{Verse 15} And the sons of Simeon, Jemuel and Jamin, and Ohad, and Jachin and Zohar, and Shaul the son of a Phoenician woman, these are the families of the sons of Simeon. ^{Verse 16} And these are the names of the sons of Levi according to their kindred, Gershon, Kohath, and Merari; and the years of the life of Levi were a hundred and thirty-seven. ^{Verse 17} And these are the sons of Gershon, Libni and Shimei, the houses of their family. And the sons of Kohath, ^{Verse 18} Amram and Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel; and the years of the life of Kohath were a hundred and thirty-three years. ^{Verse 19} And the sons of Merari, Mahli, and Mushi, these are the houses of the families of Levi, according to their kindred. ^{Verse 20} And Amram took to wife Jochebed the daughter of his father’s brother, and she bore to him both Aaron and Moses, and Miriam their sister: and the years of the life of Amram were a hundred and thirty-two years. ^{Verse 21} And the sons of Izhar, Korah, and Nepheg, and Zichri. ^{Verse 22} And the sons of Uzziel, Mishael, and Elzaphan, and Sithri. ^{Verse 23} And Aaron took to himself to wife Elisheba daughter of Amminadab sister of Nahshon, and she bore to him both Nadab and Abihu, and Eleazar and Ithamar. ^{Verse 24} And the sons of Korah, Assir, and Elkanah, and Abiasaph, these are the generations of Korah. ^{Verse 25} And Eleazar the son of Aaron took to himself for a wife one of the daughters of Putiel, and she bore to him Phinehas. These are the heads of the family of the Levites, according to their generations. ^{Verse 26} This is Aaron and Moses, whom God told to bring out the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt with their forces. ^{Verse 27} These are they that spoke with Pharaoh king of Egypt, and Aaron himself and Moses brought out the children of Israel from the land of Egypt, ^{Verse 28} in the day in which the Lord spoke to Moses in the land of Egypt; ^{Verse 29} then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, I am the Lord: speak to Pharaoh king of Egypt whatsoever I say to thee. ^{Verse 30} And Moses said before the Lord, Behold, I am not able in speech, and how shall Pharaoh hearken to me?
