Exodus 4

KJV

1  And Moses4872 answered6030 and said,559 But, behold,2005 they will not3808 believe539 me, nor3808 hearken8085 unto my voice:6963 for3588 they will say,559 The LORD3068 hath not3808 appeared7200 unto413 thee.

2  And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 him, What is that4100 2088 in thine hand?3027 And he said,559 A rod.4294

3  And he said,559 Cast7993 it on the ground.776 And he cast7993 it on the ground,776 and it became1961 a serpent;5175 and Moses4872 fled5127 from before4480 6440 it.

4  And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 Moses,4872 Put forth7971 thine hand,3027 and take270 it by the tail.2180 And he put forth7971 his hand,3027 and caught2388 it, and it became1961 a rod4294 in his hand:3709

5  That4616 they may believe539 that3588 the LORD3068 God430 of their fathers,1 the God430 of Abraham,85 the God430 of Isaac,3327 and the God430 of Jacob,3290 hath appeared7200 unto413 thee.

6  And the LORD3068 said559 furthermore5750 unto him, Put935 now4994 thine hand3027 into thy bosom.2436 And he put935 his hand3027 into his bosom:2436 and when he took it out,3318 behold,2009 his hand3027 was leprous6879 as snow.7950

7  And he said,559 Put7725 thine hand3027 into413 thy bosom2436 again. And he put7725 his hand3027 into413 his bosom2436 again; and plucked it out3318 of his bosom,4480 2436 and, behold,2009 it was turned again7725 as his other flesh.1320

8  And it shall come to pass,1961 if518 they will not3808 believe539 thee, neither3808 hearken8085 to the voice6963 of the first7223 sign,226 that they will believe539 the voice6963 of the latter314 sign.226

9  And it shall come to pass,1961 if518 they will not3808 believe539 also1571 these428 two8147 signs,226 neither3808 hearken8085 unto thy voice,6963 that thou shalt take3947 of the water4480 4325 of the river,2975 and pour8210 it upon the dry3004 land: and the water4325 which834 thou takest3947 out of4480 the river2975 shall become1961 blood1818 upon the dry3006 land.

10  And Moses4872 said559 unto413 the LORD,3068 O994 my Lord,136 I595 am not3808 eloquent,376 1697 neither1571 heretofore,4480 8543 1571 4480 8032 nor1571 since4480 227 thou hast spoken1696 unto413 thy servant:5650 but3588 I595 am slow3515 of speech,6310 and of a slow3515 tongue.3956

11  And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 him, Who4310 hath made7760 man's120 mouth?6310 or176 who4310 maketh7760 the dumb,483 or176 deaf,2795 or176 the seeing,6493 or176 the blind?5787 have not3808 I595 the LORD?3068

12  Now6258 therefore go,1980 and I595 will be1961 with5973 thy mouth,6310 and teach3384 thee what834 thou shalt say.1696

13  And he said,559 O994 my Lord,136 send,7971 I pray thee,4994 by the hand3027 of him whom thou wilt send.7971

14  And the anger639 of the LORD3068 was kindled2734 against Moses,4872 and he said,559 Is not3808 Aaron175 the Levite3881 thy brother?251 I know3045 that3588 he1931 can speak well.1696 1696 And also,1571 behold,2009 he1931 cometh forth3318 to meet7125 thee: and when he seeth7200 thee, he will be glad8055 in his heart.3820

15  And thou shalt speak1696 unto413 him, and put7760 853 words1697 in his mouth:6310 and I595 will be1961 with5973 thy mouth,6310 and with5973 his mouth,6310 and will teach3384 you 853 what834 ye shall do.6213

16  And he1931 shall be thy spokesman1696 unto413 the people:5971 and he shall be,1961 even he1931 shall be1961 to thee instead of a mouth,6310 and thou859 shalt be1961 to him instead of God.430

17  And thou shalt take3947 this2088 rod4294 in thine hand,3027 wherewith834 thou shalt do6213 853 signs.226

18  And Moses4872 went1980 and returned7725 to413 Jethro3503 his father-in-law,2859 and said559 unto him, Let me go,1980 I pray thee,4994 and return7725 unto413 my brethren251 which834 are in Egypt,4714 and see7200 whether they be yet5750 alive.2416 And Jethro3503 said559 to Moses,4872 Go1980 in peace.7965

19  And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 Moses4872 in Midian,4080 Go,1980 return7725 into Egypt:4714 for3588 all3605 the men376 are dead4191 which sought1245 853 thy life.5315

20  And Moses4872 took3947 853 his wife802 and his sons,1121 and set7392 them upon5921 an ass,2543 and he returned7725 to the land776 of Egypt:4714 and Moses4872 took3947 853 the rod4294 of God430 in his hand.3027

21  And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 Moses,4872 When thou goest1980 to return7725 into Egypt,4714 see7200 that thou do6213 all3605 those wonders4159 before6440 Pharaoh,6547 which834 I have put7760 in thine hand:3027 but I589 will harden2388 853 his heart,3820 that he shall not3808 let 853 the people5971 go.7971

22  And thou shalt say559 unto413 Pharaoh,6547 Thus3541 saith559 the LORD,3068 Israel3478 is my son,1121 even my firstborn:1060

23  And I say559 unto413 thee, Let 853 my son1121 go,7971 that he may serve5647 me: and if thou refuse3985 to let him go,7971 behold,2009 I595 will slay2026 853 thy son,1121 even thy firstborn.1060

24  And it came to pass1961 by the way1870 in the inn,4411 that the LORD3068 met6298 him, and sought1245 to kill4191 him.

25  Then Zipporah6855 took3947 a sharp stone,6864 and cut off3772 853 the foreskin6190 of her son,1121 and cast5060 it at his feet,7272 and said,559 Surely3588 a bloody1818 husband2860 art thou859 to me.

26  So he let him go:7503 4480 then227 she said,559 A bloody1818 husband2860 thou art, because of the circumcision.4139

27  And the LORD3068 said559 to413 Aaron,175 Go1980 into the wilderness4057 to meet7125 Moses.4872 And he went,1980 and met6298 him in the mount2022 of God,430 and kissed5401 him.

28  And Moses4872 told5046 Aaron175 853 all3605 the words1697 of the LORD3068 who834 had sent7971 him, and all3605 the signs226 which834 he had commanded6680 him.

29  And Moses4872 and Aaron175 went1980 and gathered together622 853 all3605 the elders2205 of the children1121 of Israel:3478

30  And Aaron175 spoke1696 853 all3605 the words1697 which834 the LORD3068 had spoken1696 unto413 Moses,4872 and did6213 the signs226 in the sight5869 of the people.5971

31  And the people5971 believed:539 and when they heard8085 that3588 the LORD3068 had visited6485 853 the children1121 of Israel,3478 and that3588 he had looked upon7200 853 their affliction,6040 then they bowed their heads6915 and worshiped.7812

1 ἀπεκρίθη δὲ Μωυσῆς καὶ εἶπεν ἐὰν οὖν μὴ πιστεύσωσίν μοι μηδὲ εἰσακούσωσιν τῆς φωνῆς μου ἐροῦσιν γὰρ ὅτι οὐκ ὦπταί σοι ὁ θεός τί ἐρῶ πρὸς αὐτούς

2 εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ κύριος τί τοῦτό ἐστιν τὸ ἐν τῇ χειρί σου ὁ δὲ εἶπεν ῥάβδος

3 καὶ εἶπεν ῥῖψον αὐτὴν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν καὶ ἔρριψεν αὐτὴν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν καὶ ἐγένετο ὄφις καὶ ἔφυγεν Μωυσῆς ἀπ᾽ αὐτοῦ

4 καὶ εἶπεν κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν ἔκτεινον τὴν χεῖρα καὶ ἐπιλαβοῦ τῆς κέρκου ἐκτείνας οὖν τὴν χεῖρα ἐπελάβετο τῆς κέρκου καὶ ἐγένετο ῥάβδος ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ

5 ἵνα πιστεύσωσίν σοι ὅτι ὦπταί σοι κύριος ὁ θεὸς τῶν πατέρων αὐτῶν θεὸς Αβρααμ καὶ θεὸς Ισαακ καὶ θεὸς Ιακωβ

6 εἶπεν δὲ αὐτῷ κύριος πάλιν εἰσένεγκε τὴν χεῖρά σου εἰς τὸν κόλπον σου καὶ εἰσήνεγκεν τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸν κόλπον αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐξήνεγκεν τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ ἐκ τοῦ κόλπου αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐγενήθη ἡ χεὶρ αὐτοῦ ὡσεὶ χιών

7 καὶ εἶπεν πάλιν εἰσένεγκε τὴν χεῖρά σου εἰς τὸν κόλπον σου καὶ εἰσήνεγκεν τὴν χεῖρα εἰς τὸν κόλπον αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐξήνεγκεν αὐτὴν ἐκ τοῦ κόλπου αὐτοῦ καὶ πάλιν ἀπεκατέστη εἰς τὴν χρόαν τῆς σαρκὸς αὐτοῦ

8 ἐὰν δὲ μὴ πιστεύσωσίν σοι μηδὲ εἰσακούσωσιν τῆς φωνῆς τοῦ σημείου τοῦ πρώτου πιστεύσουσίν σοι τῆς φωνῆς τοῦ σημείου τοῦ ἐσχάτου

9 καὶ ἔσται ἐὰν μὴ πιστεύσωσίν σοι τοῖς δυσὶ σημείοις τούτοις μηδὲ εἰσακούσωσιν τῆς φωνῆς σου λήμψῃ ἀπὸ τοῦ ὕδατος τοῦ ποταμοῦ καὶ ἐκχεεῖς ἐπὶ τὸ ξηρόν καὶ ἔσται τὸ ὕδωρ ὃ ἐὰν λάβῃς ἀπὸ τοῦ ποταμοῦ αἷμα ἐπὶ τοῦ ξηροῦ

10 εἶπεν δὲ Μωυσῆς πρὸς κύριον δέομαι κύριε οὐχ ἱκανός εἰμι πρὸ τῆς ἐχθὲς οὐδὲ πρὸ τῆς τρίτης ἡμέρας οὐδὲ ἀφ᾽ οὗ ἤρξω λαλεῖν τῷ θεράποντί σου ἰσχνόφωνος καὶ βραδύγλωσσος ἐγώ εἰμι

11 εἶπεν δὲ κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν τίς ἔδωκεν στόμα ἀνθρώπῳ καὶ τίς ἐποίησεν δύσκωφον καὶ κωφόν βλέποντα καὶ τυφλόν οὐκ ἐγὼ ὁ θεός

12 καὶ νῦν πορεύου καὶ ἐγὼ ἀνοίξω τὸ στόμα σου καὶ συμβιβάσω σε ὃ μέλλεις λαλῆσαι

13 καὶ εἶπεν Μωυσῆς δέομαι κύριε προχείρισαι δυνάμενον ἄλλον ὃν ἀποστελεῖς

14 καὶ θυμωθεὶς ὀργῇ κύριος ἐπὶ Μωυσῆν εἶπεν οὐκ ἰδοὺ Ααρων ὁ ἀδελφός σου ὁ Λευίτης ἐπίσταμαι ὅτι λαλῶν λαλήσει αὐτός σοι καὶ ἰδοὺ αὐτὸς ἐξελεύσεται εἰς συνάντησίν σοι καὶ ἰδών σε χαρήσεται ἐν ἑαυτῷ

15 καὶ ἐρεῖς πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ δώσεις τὰ ῥήματά μου εἰς τὸ στόμα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐγὼ ἀνοίξω τὸ στόμα σου καὶ τὸ στόμα αὐτοῦ καὶ συμβιβάσω ὑμᾶς ἃ ποιήσετε

16 καὶ αὐτός σοι προσλαλήσει πρὸς τὸν λαόν καὶ αὐτὸς ἔσται σου στόμα σὺ δὲ αὐτῷ ἔσῃ τὰ πρὸς τὸν θεόν

17 καὶ τὴν ῥάβδον ταύτην τὴν στραφεῖσαν εἰς ὄφιν λήμψῃ ἐν τῇ χειρί σου ἐν ᾗ ποιήσεις ἐν αὐτῇ τὰ σημεῖα

18 ἐπορεύθη δὲ Μωυσῆς καὶ ἀπέστρεψεν πρὸς Ιοθορ τὸν γαμβρὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ λέγει πορεύσομαι καὶ ἀποστρέψω πρὸς τοὺς ἀδελφούς μου τοὺς ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ καὶ ὄψομαι εἰ ἔτι ζῶσιν καὶ εἶπεν Ιοθορ Μωυσῇ βάδιζε ὑγιαίνων

19 μετὰ δὲ τὰς ἡμέρας τὰς πολλὰς ἐκείνας ἐτελεύτησεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Αἰγύπτου εἶπεν δὲ κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν ἐν Μαδιαμ βάδιζε ἄπελθε εἰς Αἴγυπτον τεθνήκασιν γὰρ πάντες οἱ ζητοῦντές σου τὴν ψυχήν

20 ἀναλαβὼν δὲ Μωυσῆς τὴν γυναῖκα καὶ τὰ παιδία ἀνεβίβασεν αὐτὰ ἐπὶ τὰ ὑποζύγια καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν εἰς Αἴγυπτον ἔλαβεν δὲ Μωυσῆς τὴν ῥάβδον τὴν παρὰ τοῦ θεοῦ ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ

21 εἶπεν δὲ κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν πορευομένου σου καὶ ἀποστρέφοντος εἰς Αἴγυπτον ὅρα πάντα τὰ τέρατα ἃ ἔδωκα ἐν ταῖς χερσίν σου ποιήσεις αὐτὰ ἐναντίον Φαραω ἐγὼ δὲ σκληρυνῶ τὴν καρδίαν αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐ μὴ ἐξαποστείλῃ τὸν λαόν

22 σὺ δὲ ἐρεῖς τῷ Φαραω τάδε λέγει κύριος υἱὸς πρωτότοκός μου Ισραηλ

23 εἶπα δέ σοι ἐξαπόστειλον τὸν λαόν μου ἵνα μοι λατρεύσῃ εἰ μὲν οὖν μὴ βούλει ἐξαποστεῖλαι αὐτούς ὅρα οὖν ἐγὼ ἀποκτενῶ τὸν υἱόν σου τὸν πρωτότοκον

24 ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ ἐν τῷ καταλύματι συνήντησεν αὐτῷ ἄγγελος κυρίου καὶ ἐζήτει αὐτὸν ἀποκτεῖναι

25 καὶ λαβοῦσα Σεπφωρα ψῆφον περιέτεμεν τὴν ἀκροβυστίαν τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτῆς καὶ προσέπεσεν πρὸς τοὺς πόδας καὶ εἶπεν ἔστη τὸ αἷμα τῆς περιτομῆς τοῦ παιδίου μου

26 καὶ ἀπῆλθεν ἀπ᾽ αὐτοῦ διότι εἶπεν ἔστη τὸ αἷμα τῆς περιτομῆς τοῦ παιδίου μου

27 εἶπεν δὲ κύριος πρὸς Ααρων πορεύθητι εἰς συνάντησιν Μωυσεῖ εἰς τὴν ἔρημον καὶ ἐπορεύθη καὶ συνήντησεν αὐτῷ ἐν τῷ ὄρει τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ κατεφίλησαν ἀλλήλους

28 καὶ ἀνήγγειλεν Μωυσῆς τῷ Ααρων πάντας τοὺς λόγους κυρίου οὓς ἀπέστειλεν καὶ πάντα τὰ σημεῖα ἃ ἐνετείλατο αὐτῷ

29 ἐπορεύθη δὲ Μωυσῆς καὶ Ααρων καὶ συνήγαγον τὴν γερουσίαν τῶν υἱῶν Ισραηλ

30 καὶ ἐλάλησεν Ααρων πάντα τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα ἃ ἐλάλησεν ὁ θεὸς πρὸς Μωυσῆν καὶ ἐποίησεν τὰ σημεῖα ἐναντίον τοῦ λαοῦ

31 καὶ ἐπίστευσεν ὁ λαὸς καὶ ἐχάρη ὅτι ἐπεσκέψατο ὁ θεὸς τοὺς υἱοὺς Ισραηλ καὶ ὅτι εἶδεν αὐτῶν τὴν θλῖψιν κύψας δὲ ὁ λαὸς προσεκύνησεν

Vul

1 Respondens Moyses ait: Non credent mihi, neque audient vocem meam, sed dicent: Non apparuit tibi Dominus.

2 Dixit ergo ad eum: Quid est quod tenes in manu tua? Respondit: Virga.

3 Dixitque Dominus: Projice eam in terram. Projecit, et versa est in colubrum, ita ut fugeret Moyses.

4 Dixitque Dominus: Extende manum tuam, et apprehende caudam ejus. Extendit, et tenuit, versaque est in virgam.

5 Ut credant, inquit, quod apparuerit tibi Dominus Deus patrum suorum, Deus Abraham, Deus Isaac et Deus Jacob.

6 Dixitque Dominus rursum: Mitte manum tuam in sinum tuum. Quam cum misisset in sinum, protulit leprosam instar nivis.

7 Retrahe, ait, manum tuam in sinum tuum. Retraxit, et protulit iterum, et erat similis carni reliquæ.

8 Si non crediderint, inquit, tibi, neque audierint sermonem signi prioris, credent verbo signi sequentis.

9 Quod si nec duobus quidem his signis crediderint, neque audierint vocem tuam: sume aquam fluminis, et effunde eam super aridam, et quidquid hauseris de fluvio, vertetur in sanguinem.

10 Ait Moyses: Obsecro, Domine, non sum eloquens ab heri et nudiustertius: et ex quo locutus es ad servum tuum, impeditioris et tardioris linguæ sum.

11 Dixit Dominus ad eum: Quis fecit os hominis? aut quis fabricatus est mutum et surdum, videntem et cæcum? nonne ego?

12 Perge, igitur, et ego ero in ore tuo: doceboque te quid loquaris.

13 At ille: Obsecro, inquit, Domine, mitte quem missurus es.

14 Iratus Dominus in Moysen, ait: Aaron frater tuus Levites, scio quod eloquens sit: ecce ipse egreditur in occursum tuum, vidensque te lætabitur corde.

15 Loquere ad eum, et pone verba mea in ore ejus: et ego ero in ore tuo, et in ore illius, et ostendam vobis quid agere debeatis.

16 Ipse loquetur pro te ad populum, et erit os tuum: tu autem eris ei in his quæ ad Deum pertinent.

17 Virgam quoque hanc sume in manu tua, in qua facturus es signa.

18 Abiit Moyses, et reversus est ad Jethro socerum suum, dixitque ei: Vadam et revertar ad fratres meos in Ægyptum, ut videam si adhuc vivant. Cui ait Jethro: Vade in pace.

19 Dixit ergo Dominus ad Moysen in Madian: Vade, et revertere in Ægyptum, mortui sunt enim omnes qui quærebant animam tuam.

20 Tulit ergo Moyses uxorem suam, et filios suos, et imposuit eos super asinum: reversusque est in Ægyptum, portans virgam Dei in manu sua.

21 Dixitque ei Dominus revertenti in Ægyptum: Vide ut omnia ostenta quæ posui in manu tua, facias coram Pharaone: ego indurabo cor ejus, et non dimittet populum.

22 Dicesque ad eum: Hæc dicit Dominus: Filius meus primogenitus Israël.

23 Dixi tibi: Dimitte filium meum ut serviat mihi; et noluisti dimittere eum: ecce ego interficiam filium tuum primogenitum.

24 Cumque esset in itinere, in diversorio occurrit ei Dominus, et volebat occidere eum.

25 Tulit idcirco Sephora acutissimam petram, et circumcidit præputium filii sui, tetigitque pedes ejus, et ait: Sponsus sanguinum tu mihi es.

26 Et dimisit eum postquam dixerat: Sponsus sanguinum ob circumcisionem.

27 Dixit autem Dominus ad Aaron: Vade in occursum Moysi in desertum. Qui perrexit obviam ei in montem Dei, et osculatus est eum.

28 Narravitque Moyses Aaron omnia verba Domini quibus miserat eum, et signa quæ mandaverat.

29 Veneruntque simul, et congregaverunt cunctos seniores filiorum Israël.

30 Locutusque est Aaron omnia verba quæ dixerat Dominus ad Moysen: et fecit signa coram populo,

31 et credidit populus. Audieruntque quod visitasset Dominus filios Israël, et respexisset afflictionem illorum: et proni adoraverunt.
