Come on, let us play wisely with them: lest they multiply, and then - if there chance any war - they join themselves unto our enemies and fight against us, and so get them out of the land."

"When ye midwife the women of the Hebrews and see in the birth time that it is a boy, kill it. But if it be a maid, let it live."

If it come to pass that they hear thy voice, then go, both thou and the elders of Israel unto the king of Egypt, and say unto him, 'The LORD God of the Hebrews hath met with us: Let us go therefore three days' journey into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice unto the LORD our God.'

Notwithstanding, I am sure that the king of Egypt will not let you go, except it be with a mighty hand:

yea and I will therefore stretch out mine hand, and smite Egypt with all my wonders which I will do therein. And after that he will let you go.

And Moses went and returned to Jethro his father-in-law again, and said unto him, "Let me go, I pray thee, and turn again unto my brethren which are in Egypt, that I may see whether they be yet alive." And Jethro said to Moses, "Go in peace."

And the LORD said unto Moses, "When thou art come into Egypt again, see that thou do all the wonders before Pharaoh which I have put in thy hand: but I will harden his heart, so that he shall not let the people go.

and therefore sayeth unto thee: let my son go, that he may serve me. If thou wilt not let him go: behold, I will slay thine eldest son.'"

And he let him go. She said 'a bloody husband' because of the circumcision.

Then Moses and Aaron went and told Pharaoh, "Thus sayeth the LORD God of Israel: 'Let my people go, that they may keep holy day unto me in the wilderness.'"

And Pharaoh answered, "What fellow is the LORD, that I should hear his voice for to let Israel go?

I know not the LORD, neither will let Israel go." And they said, "The God of the Hebrews hath met with us: let us go, we pray thee, three days' journey into the desert, that we may sacrifice unto the LORD our God; lest he smite us either with pestilence or with sword."

Then said the king of Egypt unto them, "Wherefore do ye, Moses and Aaron, let the people from their work? Get you unto your labour."

And Pharaoh said furthermore, "Behold, there is much people in the land, and ye make them play and let their work stand."

"See that ye give the people no more straw to make brick withal, as ye did in time past: let them go and gather them straw themselves.

And the number of bricks which they were wont to make in time past, lay unto their charge also, and minish nothing thereof. For they be idle and therefore cry, saying, 'Let us go and do sacrifice unto our God.'

And he answered, "Idle are ye idle, and therefore ye say, 'Let us go and do sacrifice unto the LORD.'

Then the LORD said unto Moses, "Now shalt thou see what I will do unto Pharaoh, for with a mighty hand shall he let them go, and with a mighty hand shall he drive them out of his land."

"Go and bid Pharaoh, king of Egypt, that he let the children of Israel go out of his land."

Then said the LORD unto Moses, "Pharaoh's heart is hardened, and he refuseth to let the people go.

And say unto him, 'The LORD God of the Hebrews hath sent me unto thee saying: let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness: but hitherto thou wouldest not hear.

The LORD spake unto Moses, "Go unto Pharaoh and tell him, 'Thus sayeth the LORD: let my people go, that they may serve me.

If thou wilt not let them go, behold: I will smite all thy land with frogs.

Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron and said, "Pray ye unto the LORD that he may take away the frogs from me and from my people, and I will let the people go, that they may sacrifice unto the LORD."

And the LORD said unto Moses, "Rise up early in the morning and stand before Pharaoh, for he will come unto the water: and say unto him, 'Thus sayeth the LORD: let my people go, that they may serve me.

If thou wilt not let my people go, behold: I will send all manner flies both upon thee and thy servants, and thy people, and into thy houses. And the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of flies, and the ground whereon they are.

And Pharaoh said, "I will let you go, that ye may sacrifice unto the LORD your God in the wilderness: only go not far away, and see that ye pray for me."

And Moses said, "Behold, I will go out from thee and pray unto the LORD, and the flies shall depart from Pharaoh and from his servants and from his people tomorrow. But let Pharaoh from henceforth deceive no more, that he would not let the people go to sacrifice unto the LORD."

But for all that, Pharaoh hardened his heart even then also and would not let the people go.

If thou wilt not let them go but wilt hold them still:

And Pharaoh sent to wete: but there was not one of the cattle of the Israelites dead. Notwithstanding, the heart of Pharaoh hardened, and he would not let the people go.

And the LORD said unto Moses and Aaron, "Take your hands full of ashes out of the furnace, and let Moses sprinkle it up into the air in the sight of Pharaoh,

And the LORD said unto Moses, "Rise up early in the morning and stand before Pharaoh and tell him, 'Thus sayeth the LORD God of the Hebrews: Let my people go, that they may serve me,

If it be so that thou stoppest my people, that thou wilt not let them go:

Pray ye unto the LORD, that the thunder of God and hail may cease, and I will let you go, and ye shall tarry no longer."

So was the heart of Pharaoh hardened, that he would not let the children of Israel go, as the LORD had said by Moses.

Then Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and said unto him, "Thus sayeth the LORD God of the Hebrews, 'How long shall it be, or thou wilt submit thyself unto me? Let my people go, that they may serve me.

If thou wilt not let my people go: behold, tomorrow will I bring grasshoppers into thy land,

And Pharaoh's servants said unto him, "How long shall this fellow thus plague us? Let the men go that they may serve the LORD their God; or else wilt thou see Egypt first destroyed?"

And he said unto them, "Shall it be so? The LORD be with you! Should I let you go, and your children also? Take heed, for ye have some mischief in hand.

But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that he would not let the children of Israel go.

And the LORD said unto Moses, "Stretch out thy hand unto heaven, and let there be darkness upon the land of Egypt: even that they may feel the darkness."

Then Pharaoh called for Moses and said, "Go and serve the LORD; only let your sheep, and your oxen abide, but let your children go with you."

But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that he would not let them go.

And Moses said, "Let it be as thou hast said: I will see thy face no more."

And the LORD said unto Moses, "Yet will I bring one plague more upon Pharaoh and upon Egypt, and after that he will let you go hence. And when he letteth you go, he shall utterly drive you hence.

And Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh. But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that he would not let the children of Israel go out of his land.

If the household be too few for a sheep, then let him and his neighbor that is next unto this house, take according to the number of souls, and count unto a sheep according to every man's eating.

And see that ye let nothing of it remain unto the morning: if ought remain, burn it with fire.

but all the servants that are bought for money shall ye circumcise, and then let them eat thereof.

If a stranger dwell among you, and will hold Passover unto the LORD, let him circumcise all that be males, and then let him come and observe it, and be taken as one that is born in the land. No uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.

And when Pharaoh was loath to let us go, the LORD slew all the firstborn in the land of Egypt: as well the firstborn of men as of beasts. And therefore I sacrifice unto the LORD all the males that open the matrix, but all the firstborn of my children I must redeem.'

When Pharaoh had let the people go, God carried them not through the land of the Philistines, though it were a nigh way. For God said, "The people might haply repent when they see war, and so turn again to Egypt."

And when it was told the king of Egypt that the people fled, then Pharaoh's heart and all his servants turned unto the people and said, "Why have we this done, that we have let Israel go out of our service?"

Did not we tell thee this in Egypt saying, 'Let us be in rest and serve the Egyptians?' For it had been better for us to have served the Egyptians, than for to die in the wilderness."

and smote off their chariot wheels and cast them down to the ground. Then said the Egyptians, "Let us flee from Israel, for the LORD fighteth for them against us."

Then Moses and the children of Israel sang this song unto the LORD, and said, "Let us sing unto the LORD, for he is become glorious, the horse and him that rode upon him hath he overthrown in the sea!

Let fear and dread fall upon them through the greatness of thine arm, and let them be as still as a stone, while thy people pass through, O LORD; while the people pass through, which thou hast gotten.

Then said the LORD unto Moses, "Behold, I will rain bread from heaven down to you, and let the people go out, and gather day by day, that I may prove them whether they will walk in my law or no.

The sixth day let them prepare that which they will bring in, and let it be twice as much as they gather in daily."

And Moses said unto them, "See that no man let ought remain of it till the morning."

See: because the LORD hath given you a Sabbath, therefore he giveth you, the sixth day, bread for two days. Bide therefore every man at home, and let no man go out of his place the seventh day."

And when Moses held up his hand, Israel had the better. And when he let his hand down, Amalek had the better.

And let them judge the people at all seasons: If there be any great matter, let them bring that unto thee, and let them judge all small causes them selves, and ease thyself, and let them bear with thee.

And then Moses let his father-in-law depart, and he went in to his own land.

And the LORD said unto Moses, "Go unto the people and sanctify them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their clothes:

There shall not a hand touch it, but that he shall either be stoned or else shot through: whether it be beast or man, it shall not live.' When the horn bloweth, then let them come up in to the mountain."

And let the priests also, which come to the LORD's presence, sanctify themselves: lest the LORD smite them."

And the LORD said unto him, "Away, and get thee down: and come up both thou and Aaron with thee. But let not the priests and the people presume for to come up unto the LORD: lest he smite them."

And when the people saw it, they removed and stood afar off and said unto Moses, "Talk thou with us, and we will hear; but let not God talk with us, lest we die."

Then let his master bring him unto the judges and set him to the door or the doorpost, and bore his ear through with an awl, and let him be his servant forever.

If she please not her master, so that he hath given her to no man to wife, then shall he let her go free: to sell her unto a strange nation shall he have no power, because he despised her.

If a man smite his servant or his maid in the eye and put it out, he shall let them go free for the eye's sake.

Also, if he smite out his servant's or his maid's tooth, he shall let them go out free for the tooth's sake.

If it be torn with wild beasts, then let him bring record of the tearing: and he shall not make it good.

He that offereth unto any gods save unto the LORD only, let him die without redemption.

If thou see thine enemy's ass sink under his burden, thou shalt not pass by and let him alone: but shalt help him to lift him up again.

and the seventh year thou shalt let it rest and lie still, that the poor of thy people may eat, and what they leave, the beasts of the field shall eat: In like manner thou shalt do with thy vineyard and thine olive trees.

And in all things that I have said unto you, be circumspect. And make no rehearsal of the names of strange gods, neither let any man hear them out of your mouths.

and said unto the elders, "Tarry ye here until we come again unto you: And behold here is Aaron and Hur with you. If any man have any matters to do, let him come to them."

and put it beneath under the compass of the altar, and let the net reach unto the one half of the altar.

and let them be put in rings along by the sides of the altar, to bear it withal.

And make the altar hollow with boards: even as it was showed thee in the mount, so let them make it.

And there shall be a hole for the head in the midst of it, and let there be a bond of woven work round about the collar of it: as it were the collar of a partlet, that it rend not.

and bring the ox before the tabernacle of witness. And let Aaron and his sons put their hands upon his head

"Then take one of the rams, and let Aaron and his sons put their hands upon the head of the ram,

And take the other ram and let Aaron and his sons put their hands upon his head and let him then be killed.

Then take the breast of the ram that is Aaron's full offering and wave it, a wave offering before the LORD, and let that be thy part.

And beat it to powder and put it before the witness in the tabernacle of witness, where I will meet thee, but let it be unto you holy.

And see that ye make none after the making of that, but let it be unto you holy for the LORD.

Wherefore let the children of Israel keep the Sabbath, that they observe it throughout their generations, that it be an covenant forever.

And Aaron said, "Let not the wrath of my lord wax fierce, thou knowest the people that they are even set on mischief.

And I said unto them, 'Let them that have gold, take and bring it me': and I cast it into the fire, and thereof came out this calf."

he went and stood in the gate of the host and said, "If any man pertain unto the LORD, let him come to me." And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together and came unto him.

Now therefore, if I have found favour in thy sight, then show me thy way and let me know thee: that I may find grace in thy sight. And look on this also, how that this nation is thy people."

But let no man come up with thee, neither let any man be seen throughout all the mount, neither let sheep nor oxen feed before the hill."

and said, "If I have found grace in thy sight O Lord, then let my Lord go with us - for it is a stubborn people. And have mercy upon our wickedness and our sin, and let us be thine inheritance."

And let all them that are wise hearted among you, come and make all that the LORD hath commanded:
