Book 02 : EXODUS - Chapter 004
004:001
And the LORD said unto him, What is that in thine hand? And he
said, A rod
004:002
And he said, Cast it on the ground. And he cast it on the
ground, and it became a serpent; and Moses fled from before
it
004:003
And the LORD said unto Moses, Put forth thine hand, and take
it by the tail. And he put forth his hand, and caught it, and
it became a rod in his hand
004:004
That they may believe that the LORD God of their fathers, the
God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath
appeared unto thee
004:005
And the LORD said furthermore unto him, Put now thine hand
into thy bosom. And he put his hand into his bosom: and when
he took it out, behold, his hand was leprous as snow
004:006
And he said, Put thine hand into thy bosom again. And he put
his hand into his bosom again; and plucked it out of his
bosom, and, behold, it was turned again as his other flesh
004:007
And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe thee,
neither hearken to the voice of the first sign, that they will
believe the voice of the latter sign
004:008
And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe also these
two signs, neither hearken unto thy voice, that thou shalt
take of the water of the river, and pour it upon the dry land:
and the water which thou takest out of the river shall become
blood upon the dry land
004:009
And Moses said unto the LORD, O my LORD, I am not eloquent,
neither heretofore, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy
servant: but I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue
004:010
And the LORD said unto him, Who hath made man's mouth? or who
maketh the dumb, or deaf, or the seeing, or the blind? have
not I the LORD
004:011
Now therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth, and teach thee
what thou shalt say
004:012
And he said, O my LORD, send, I pray thee, by the hand of him
whom thou wilt send
004:013
And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Moses, and he
said, Is not Aaron the Levite thy brother? I know that he can
speak well. And also, behold, he cometh forth to meet thee:
and when he seeth thee, he will be glad in his heart
004:014
And thou shalt speak unto him, and put words in his mouth: and
I will be with thy mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach
you what ye shall do
004:015
And he shall be thy spokesman unto the people: and he shall
be, even he shall be to thee instead of a mouth, and thou
shalt be to him instead of God
004:016
And thou shalt take this rod in thine hand, wherewith thou
shalt do signs
004:017
And Moses went and returned to Jethro his father in law, and
said unto him, Let me go, I pray thee, and return unto my
brethren which are in Egypt, and see whether they be yet
alive. And Jethro said to Moses, Go in peace
004:018
And the LORD said unto Moses in Midian, Go, return into Egypt:
for all the men are dead which sought thy life
004:019
And Moses took his wife and his sons, and set them upon an
ass, and he returned to the land of Egypt: and Moses took the
rod of God in his hand
004:020
And the LORD said unto Moses, When thou goest to return into
Egypt, see that thou do all those wonders before Pharaoh,
which I have put in thine hand: but I will harden his heart,
that he shall not let the people go
004:021
And thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, Thus saith the LORD, Israel
is my son, even my firstborn
004:022
And I say unto thee, Let my son go, that he may serve me: and
if thou refuse to let him go, behold, I will slay thy son,
even thy firstborn
004:023
And it came to pass by the way in the inn, that the LORD met
him, and sought to kill him
004:024
Then Zipporah took a sharp stone, and cut off the foreskin of
her son, and cast it at his feet, and said, Surely a bloody
husband art thou to me
004:025
So he let him go: then she said, A bloody husband thou art,
because of the circumcision
004:026
And the LORD said to Aaron, Go into the wilderness to meet
Moses. And he went, and met him in the mount of God, and
kissed him
004:027
And Moses told Aaron all the words of the LORD who had sent
him, and all the signs which he had commanded him
004:028
And Moses and Aaron went and gathered together all the elders
of the children of Israel
004:029
And Aaron spake all the words which the LORD had spoken unto
Moses, and did the signs in the sight of the people
004:030
And the people believed: and when they heard that the LORD had
visited the children of Israel, and that he had looked upon
their affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshipped
