And Moses said unto Yahweh - Pardon, O My Lord! not a man of words, am I, neither heretofore, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant, - for heavy of mouth and heavy of tongue, I am.

And he said - Pardon, O My Lord! send, I pray thee by the hand of him whom thou wilt send -

Take thou heed of his presence, and hearken to his voice - do not vex him,-for he will not pardon your transgression, for, my name, is within him.

and said - If, I pray thee, I have found favour in thine eyes, O My Lord, I pray thee let My Lord go on in our midst, - although a stiff-necked people, it is, so wilt thou pardon our iniquity and our sin and take us as thine own.
