Exodus
Chapter 6

The covenant renewed with Moses

6:1 Then the LORD said to Moses, Now will you 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.
6:2 And God spoke to Moses, and said to him, I [am] the LORD
6:3 And I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, by [the name of] God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them.
6:4 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.
6:5 And I have also heard the groaning of the children of Israel, whom the Egyptians keep in bondage ; and I have remembered my covenant.
6:6 Wherefore say to 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
6:7 And I will take you to me for a people, and I will be to you a God and you shall know that I [am] the LORD your God, which brings you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.
6:8 And I will bring you in to 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.
6:9 And Moses spoke so to the children of Israel but they listened not to Moses for anguish of spirit, and for cruel bondage.
6:10 And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
6:11 Go in, speak to Pharaoh king of Egypt, that he let the children of Israel go out of his land.
6:12 And Moses spoke before the LORD, saying, Behold, the children of Israel have not listened to me; how then shall Pharaoh hear me, who [am] of uncircumcised lips ?
6:13 And the LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron, and gave them a charge to the children of Israel, and to Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt.
