Exodus 6:28-Exodus 7:13 - Moses And Aaron Before Pharaoh
28 Thus came it to pass, that on a certain day, Yahweh spake unto Moses in the land of Egypt. 29 So then Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying - I, am Yahweh: Speak thou unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, all that, I, am speaking unto thee.
30 And Moses said before Yahweh, - Lo! I, am of uncircumcised lips, how then will Pharaoh hearken unto me?
1 Then said Yahweh unto Moses - See! I have appointed thee to be God unto Pharaoh, - and, Aaron thy brother, shall be thy prophet! 2 Thou, shalt speak all that which I may command thee, and, Aaron thy brother, shall speak unto Pharaoh, and he shall let the sons of Israel go out of his land. 3 But, I, will suffer Pharaoh to harden his heart, - so will I multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt. 4 And Pharaoh will not hearken unto you, so will I lay my hand on Egypt, - and bring forth my hosts - my people the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt, with great judgments. 5 And the Egyptians shall know that I, am Yahweh, when I have stretched forth my hand over Egypt, - and brought forth the sons of Israel out of their midst.
6 And Moses and Aaron did so , - as Yahweh commanded them, so, did they. 7 Now Moses, was eighty years old, and, Aaron, eighty-three years old, - when they spake unto Pharaoh.
8 And Yahweh spake unto Moses and unto Aaron saying: 9 When Pharaoh shall speak unto you saying, Shew for yourselves a wonder, then shalt thou say unto Aaron, Take thy staff, and cast it down before Pharaoh let it become a sea-serpent. 10 So Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and did so as Yahweh had commanded, - and Aaron cast down his staff before Pharaoh and before his servants and it became a sea-serpent, 11 Then called Pharaoh also for the wise men and for the magicians, - and they too, the sacred scribes of Egypt with their secret arts, did in like manner; 12 yea they cast down each man his staff, and they became sea-serpents, - but Aaron's staff swallowed up their staves. 13 Then waxed bold the heart of Pharaoh, and he hearkened not unto them, - as spake Yahweh.
