And when she could no longer hide him, she took for him an ark of paper-reed, and covered it over with bitumen, and with pitch, - and put therein the child, and laid it among the rushes upon the bank of the river.

And he said - Do not draw nigh hither, - put off thy sandals from thy feet, for, the place whereon thou art standing is holy ground.

But, I, know, that the king of Egypt will not suffer you to go, - not even by a firm hand.

So then I will put forth my hand and smite Egypt, with all my wonders, which I will d in the midst thereof, - and, after that, he will send you forth.

but every woman shall ask of her neighbour, and of her that sojourneth in her house, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold and mantles, - and ye shall put them upon your sons and upon your daughters, so shall ye spoil the Egyptians.

And Yahweh said unto Moses, Put forth thy hand, and take it by its tail: So he put forth his hand, and laid hold of it, and it became a staff in his hand: -

And he said - Put back thy hand into thy bosom: So he put back his hand into his bosom, - and then took it out of his bosom, and lo it had come again like his own flesh:

Then shalt thou speak unto him, and shalt put the words in his mouth, - and, I, will be with thy mouth and with his mouth, so will I direct you what ye shall do.

And Yahweh said unto Moses, When thou goest to return to Egypt, see as touching all the wonders which I have put in thy hand, that thou do them before Pharaoh - but, I, will let his heart wax bold, and he will not suffer the people to go.

Therefore I say unto thee, Let my son go, that he may serve me, But if thou refuse to let him go, behold, I, am going to slay, thy son, thy firstborn.

But he said: Idle, ye are - idle, on this account, are, ye, saying, We must take our journey, we must sacrifice to Yahweh.

Now, therefore, go labour, but, straw, shall not be given you, - yet the tale of bricks, shall ye render.

And Moses spake thus unto the sons of Israel, but they hearkened not unto Moses, through shortness of spirit, and through hard service.

But, I, will suffer Pharaoh to harden his heart, - so will I multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.

yea they cast down each man his staff, and they became sea-serpents, - but Aaron's staff swallowed up their staves.

But if thou art, refusing, to let them go, lo! I, am plaguing all thy boundaries with frogs;

But when Pharaoh saw that there had come a respite, then made he his heart dull and hearkened not unto them, - as spake Yahweh.

And the sacred scribes did in like manner with their secret arts, to bring forth the gnats, but they could not. So there came to be gnats, among men and among beasts.

Then said the sacred scribes unto Pharaoh, The finger of God, it is! But the heart of Pharaoh waxed bold and he hearkened not unto them, as spake Yahweh.

But if thou art not letting my people go, behold me! sending forth - against thee, and against thy servants, and against thy people, and against thy houses the gad-fly, - and the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of the gad-fly, moreover also the ground whereon, they are:

so will I put a separation betwixt my people and thy people. By to-morrow, shall come to pass this sign.

But, if, refusing, thou art to let them go, - and still art holding them fast,

So Yahweh did this thing, on the morrow, and all the cattle of the Egyptians died, - but of the cattle of the sons of Israel, died not one.

And Pharaoh sent, and lo! there had not died of the cattle of Israel, so much as one. But Pharaoh's heart became dull, and he did not let the people go.

But Yahweh let the heart of Pharaoh wax bold, and he hearkened not unto them, - as spake Yahweh unto Moses.

For now, might I have put forth my hand, and smitten thee and thy people with pestilence, - and thou shoulder have secretly disappeared from the earth;

but, in very deed for this purpose, have I let thee remain, for the purpose of showing thee my might, - and that my name may be celebrated in all the earth.

but, whoso applied not his heart unto the word of Yahweh, left his servants and his cattle in the field.

But as touching thee and thy servants, I know that not yet will ye stand in awe of Yahweh Elohim.

but the wheat and the spelt, were not smitten, - for they were, not ripe.

But if, refusing, thou art to let my people go, behold me bringing in tomorrow a locust within thy bounds;

But Yahweh suffered the heart of Pharaoh to wax bold, - and he did not let the sons of Israel go.

they saw not one another neither rose any man from his couch for three days, - but all the sons of Israel, had light in their dwellings.

But against none of the sons of Israel, shall a dog sharpen his tongue, neither against man nor beast, - that ye may know that Yahweh maketh a difference between Egypt and Israel.

So then, Moses and Aaron, did all these wonders before Pharaoh, - but Yahweh let Pharaoh's heart wax bold, and he did not let the sons of Israel go out of his land.

But if the household be too small for a lamb, then shall he and his neighbour that is near unto his house take one, according to the number of souls, - each man according to his eating, shall ye number for the lamb.

And they shall take of the blood, and put upon the two door-posts and upon the upper-beam, - upon the houses wherein they are to eat it.

Do not eat of it underdone, nor cooked by boiling in water, - but roast with fire, its head with it, legs, and with its inward parts.

And ye shall let nothing thereof remain until morning, - but that which is left remaining until morning, in the fire shall ye consume.

Seven days, unleavened cakes, shall ye eat, surely, on the first day, shall ye put away leaven, out of your houses, - for whosoever eateth what is leavened, then shall that soul be cut off out of Israel, from the first day, unto the seventh day.

Then shall ye say - A passover sacrifice, it is to Yahweh, who passed-over the houses of the sons of Israel, in Egypt, when he plagued the Egyptians but our houses, he delivered. Then did the people bend their heads and bow themselves down.

And it came to pass, at midnight, that Yahweh, smote every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat upon his throne, unto the firstborn of the captive who was in the pit of his prison, - and every firstborn of beasts.

but, every man's servant bought with silver, - when thou hast circumcised him, then, shall he eat thereof:

And when there may sojourn with thee a sojourner who may wish to keep a passover to Yahweh, there must be circumcised to him every male and then, may he draw near to keep it, so shall he be as a native of the land, - but no uncircumcised male, shall eat thereof.

But every firstling of an ass, shalt thou redeem with a lamb or if thou wilt not redeem it, then thou shalt break its neck, - but every firstborn of men among thy sons, shalt thou redeem.

But the sons of Israel, had gone their way on dry ground in the saidst of the sea, - and the waters had been to them a wall, on their right hand and on their left.

And when Israel saw the mighty hand wherewith Yahweh had wrought against the Egyptians, then did the people revere Yahweh, - and they put their trust in Yahweh, and in Moses, his servant.

For the horses of Pharaoh, with his chariots and his horsemen, entered into the sea, Then did Yahweh bring back upon them the waters of the sea, - But the sons of Israel, had gone their way on the dry ground through the midst of the sea.

And he made outcry unto Yahweh, and Yahweh pointed out a tree, and he cast it into the waters, and the waters became sweet, - There, he appointed him a statute and regulation And, there, he put him to the proof.

and the sons of Israel said unto them - Oh that we had died by the hand of Yahweh, in the land of Egypt, when we remained by the pot of flesh, when we did eat bread to the full, - for ye have brought us forth into this desert, to cause all this multitude to die by famine.

And Moses said - In that Yahweh giveth you in the evening flesh to eat, and bread in the morning, to the full, in that Yahweh heareth your murmurings wherewith ye are murmuring against him, what then are, we? Not against us, do ye murmur but against Yahweh.

But they hearkened not unto Moses, but certain men left thereof until morning, and it swarmed with worms and become loathsome, - and Moses was wroth with them.

And he said unto them - That is what Yahweh spake. The observance of a holy sabbath to Yahweh, is to-morrow, - what ye would bake, bake and what ye would boil, boil, and all that is left over, put by you to keep until the morning.

So they put it by until the morning, as Moses had commanded, - and it gave no unpleasant odour, neither was there a worm, therein.

Six days, shall ye gather it, - but on the seventh day, a sabbath, it shall not be therein.

And it came to pass on the seventh day, that there went forth some of the people to gather, - but they found not.

So Moses said unto Aaron - Take a single basket, and put therein an omer-full of manna, - and set it down before Yahweh, as a thing to be preserved to your generations.

And the people found fault with Moses, and said - Give us water, that we may drink. And Moses said to them, Why should ye find fault with me? Why should ye put Yahweh to the proof?

And it shall be when Moses shall lift on high his hands, then shall Israel prevail, but when he shall let down his hands, then shall Amalek prevail.

But, the hands of Moses, were weary, so they took a stone, and put under him, and he sat thereupon, - and, Aaron and Hur, upheld his hands - on this side, one and on that side, one, and so his hands became steady, until the going in of the sun.

So shall they judge the people at any time, and it shall be, all the great matters, shall they bring in unto thee, but all the small matters, shall, they themselves, judge, - so, lighten thou the burden for thyself, and let them bear it with thee.

And they shall judge the people, at any time, - the hard matters, shall they bring in unto Moses, but all the small matters, shall, they themselves, judge.

But, ye, shall be mine, As a kingdom of priests, And a holy nation. These, are the words, which thou shalt speak unto the sons of Israel.

Then came Moses, and called for the elders of the people, - and put before them all these words which Yahweh had commanded him.

No hand shall touch it but he shall be, surely stoned, or be, surely shot, whether beast or man, he shall not live, - When the rams horn soundeth, they themselves, shall come up within the mount,

And Yahweh said unto him - Away, down, then shalt thou come up, thou and Aaron with thee, - but as for the priests and the people, let it not be that they press through to come up unto Yahweh lest he break in upon them.

but shewing lovingkindness unto thousands of generations , - of them who love me, and keep my commandments.

but, the seventh day, is a sabbath unto Yahweh thy God, - thou shalt do no work, thou nor thy son nor thy daughter nor thy servant, nor thy handmaid, nor thy beast, nor thy sojourner who is within thy gates,

And they said unto Moses, Speak, thou, with us, and we will hear, - but let not God speak with us lest we die.

But if, an altar of stones, thou wilt make to me, thou shalt not build them hewn, - for as soon as thou hast lifted, thy sharp tool, thereupon, thou hast profaned it;

Now, these are the regulations which thou shalt put before them.

When thou shalt acquire a servant who is a Hebrew, six years, shall he serve, - but in the seventh shall he go out freely - for nought.

But, if the servant shall plainly say, I love my lord, and my wife and my sons, - I will not go out free,

But if these three, he will not do for her, then shall she go out for nought, without silver.

He that smiteth a man, so that he die, shall surely be put to death.

But he who hath not lain in wait, but, God, hath occasioned him to come to his hand, then will I appoint for thee a place, whither he may flee.

But, when a man shall act presumptuously against his neighbour to slay him with guile, from mine altar, shalt thou take him to die.

And, he that smiteth his father or his mother, shall, surely be put to death.

And, he that stealeth a man of the sons of Israel, and selleth him, or he be found in his hand, shall, surely be put to death.

And he who revileth his father or his mother, shall, surely be put to death.

And when men strive together, and one shall smite the other, with a stone or with his fist, - and he die not, but shall fall to his bed; -

And when men strive together and push against a woman with child, and she miscarry, hut there is no other mischief, he shall, surely be fined, according as the woman's husband shall lay upon him, but he shall give it through judges.

But, if mischief follow, then shalt thou give life for life;

But, if, the ox, was wont to gore before that time and it hath been attested to his owner, and he hath not proceeded to put him under guard, and he causeth the death of man or woman, the ox, shall be stoned, and, his owner also, shall be put to death.

And when a man openeth a pit, or when a man diggeth a pit, and doth not cover it, - and there falleth thereinto an ox or an ass,

the owner of the pit, shall make it good, silver, shall he pay back to the owner thereof, - and the dead beast, shall be his.

Or if it was known that, an ox, was, wont to gore, before that time, and his owner proceeded not to put him under guard, he shall surely make good, - an ox for the ox, and, the dead one, shall be his.

But, if it be verily stolen, from him, he shall make restitution to the owner thereof.

Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death.

but the seventh year, shalt thou let it rest and be still so shall the needy of thy people eat, and what they leave, shall the wild-beast of the field eat, - in like manner, shalt thou deal with thy vineyard with thine oliveyard.

Six days, shalt thou do thy work, but on the seventh day, shalt thou keep sabbath, - that thine ox may rest and thine ass, and that the son of thy handmaid and the sojourner may be refreshed.

But if thou wilt indeed hearken, to his voice, and so wilt do all that I may speak, then will I be an enemy to thine enemies, and an adversary to thine adversaries;

Thou shalt not bow thyself down to their gods neither shalt thou be led to serve them, neither shalt thou do according to their works, - but thou shalt, verily overthrow, them, and, completely break in pieces, their pillars.

And Moses alone shall draw near unto Yahweh, but, they shall not draw near, and, the people, shall not come up with him.

Then took Moses half of the blood, and put it in basins, and half of the blood, dashed he over the altar:

against the nobles of the sons of Israel, put he not forth his hand, - so then they had vision of God, and did eat and drink,

but, unto the elders, he said - Tarry for us here, until we return unto you. And lo! Aaron and Hur, are with you, he that hath a cause, let him draw near unto them.

And thou shalt cast for it four rings of gold, and shalt put them on the four feet thereof, - even two rings on the one side thereof, and two rings on the other side thereof.

And thou shalt put into the ark, - the testimony which I will give unto thee.

And thou shalt put the propitiatory upon the ark above, - and in the ark, shalt thou put the testimony, which I will give unto thee.
