Exodus 6

1 Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν, ἤδη ὄψει ἃ ποιήσω τῷ Φαραῷ· ἐν γὰρ χειρὶ κραταίᾳ ἐξαποστελεῖ αὐτούς, καὶ ἐν βραχίονι ὑψηλῷ ἐκβαλεῖ αὐτοὺς ἐκ τῆς γῆς αὐτοῦ.

2 Ἐλάλησε δὲ ὁ Θεὸς πρὸς Μωυσῆν, καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτὸν, ἐγὼ Κύριος.

3 Καὶ ὤφθην πρὸς Ἀβραὰμ καὶ Ἰσαὰκ καὶ Ἰακὼβ, Θεὸς ὢν αὐτῶν· καὶ τὸ ὄνομά μου Κύριος οὐκ ἐδήλωσα αὐτοῖς.

4 Καὶ ἔστησα τὴν διαθήκην μου πρὸς αὐτοὺς, ὥστε δοῦναι αὐτοῖς τὴν γῆν τῶν Χαναναίων, τὴν γῆν ἣν παρῳκήκασιν, ἐν ᾗ καὶ παρῴκησαν ἐπʼ αὐτῆς.

5 Καὶ ἐγὼ εἰσήκουσα τὸν στεναγμὸν τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ, ὃν οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι καταδουλοῦνται αὐτούς, καὶ ἐμνήσθην τῆς διαθήκης ὑμῶν.

6 Βάδιζε, εἶπον τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραὴλ, λέγων, ἐγὼ Κύριος· καὶ ἐξάξω ὑμᾶς ἀπὸ τῆς δυναστείας τῶν Αἰγυπτίων, καὶ ῥύσομαι ὑμᾶς ἐκ τῆς δουλείας, καὶ λυτρώσομαι ὑμᾶς ἐν βραχίονι ὑψηλῷ καὶ κρίσει μεγάλῃ·

7 Καὶ λὴψομαι ἐμαυτῷ ὑμᾶς λαὸν ἐμοὶ, καὶ ἔσομαι ὑμῶν Θεός· καὶ γνώσεσθε ὅτι ἐγὼ Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ὑμῶν, ὁ ἐξαγαγὼν ὑμᾶς ἐκ τῆς καταδυναστείας τῶν Αἰγυπτίων.

8 Καὶ εἰσάξω ὑμᾶς εἰς τὴν γῆν, εἰς ἣν ἐξέτεινα τὴν χεῖρά μου, δοῦναι αὐτὴν τῷ Ἀβραὰμ, καὶ Ἰσαὰκ, καὶ Ἰακὼβ, καὶ δώσω ὑμῖν αὐτὴν ἐν κληρῷ· ἐγὼ Κύριος.

9 Ἐλάλησε δὲ Μωυσῆς οὕτω τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραήλ· καὶ οὐκ εἰσήκουσαν Μωυσῇ ἀπὸ τῆς ὀλιγοψυχίας, καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ἔργων τῶν σκληρῶν.

10 Εἶπε δὲ Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων,

11 εἴσελθε, λάλησον Φαραῷ βασιλεῖ Αἰγύπτου, ἵνα ἐξαποστείλῃ τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραὴλ ἐκ τῆς γῆς αὐτοῦ.

12 Ἐλάλησε δὲ Μωυσῆς ἔναντι Κυρίου, λέγων, ἰδοὺ οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ οὐκ εἰσήκουσάν μου, καὶ πῶς εἰσακούσεταί μου Φαραώ; ἐγὼ δὲ ἄλογός εἰμι.

13 Εἶπε δὲ Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν καὶ Ἀαρὼν, καὶ συνέταξεν αὐτοῖς πρὸς Φαραὼ βασιλέα Αἰγύπτου, ὥστε ἐξαποστεῖλαι τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραὴλ ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου.

14 Καὶ οὗτοι ἀρχηγοὶ οἴκων πατριῶν αὐτῶν· υἱοὶ Ῥουβὴν, πρωτοτόκου Ἰσραήλ· Ἑνὼχ, καὶ Φαλλοὺς, Ἀσρὼν, καὶ Χαρμεί· αὕτη ἡ συγγένεια Ῥουβήν.

15 Καὶ υἱοὶ Συμεών· Ἰεμουὴλ, καὶ Ἰαμεὶμ, καὶ Ἀὼδ, καὶ Ἰαχεὶν, καὶ Σαὰρ, καὶ Σαοὺλ ὁ ἐκ τῆς Φοινίσσης· αὗται αἱ πατριαὶ τῶν υἱῶν Συμεών.

16 Καὶ ταῦτα τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν υἱῶν Λευὶ κατὰ συγγενείας αὐτῶν· Γεδσὼν, Καὰθ, καὶ Μεραρεί· καὶ τὰ ἔτη τῆς ζωῆς Λευὶ ἑκατὸν τριάκοντα ἑπτά.

17 Καὶ οὗτοι υἱοὶ Γεδσών· Λοβενεὶ, καὶ Σεμεεί· οἶκοι πατριᾶς αὐτῶν.

18 Καὶ υἱοὶ Καάθ· Ἀμβρὰμ, καὶ Ἰσσαάρ, Χεβρὼν, καὶ Ὀζειήλ· καὶ τὰ ἔτη τῆς ζωῆς Καὰθ ἑκατὸν τριάκοντα τρία ἔτη.

19 Καὶ υἱοὶ Μεραρεί· Μοολεὶ, καὶ Ὀμουσεί. οὗτοι οἱ οἶκοι πατριῶν Λευὶ κατὰ συγγενείας αὐτῶν.

20 Καὶ ἔλαβεν Ἀμβρὰν τὴν Ἰωχαβὲδ, θυγατέρα τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ, ἑαυτῷ εἰς γυναῖκα· καὶ ἐγέννησεν αὐτῷ τόν τε Ἀαρὼν καὶ τὸν Μωυσῆν, καὶ Μαριὰμ τὴν ἀδελφὴν αὐτῶν· τὰ δὲ ἔτη τῆς ζωῆς Ἀμβρὰμ, ἑκατὸν τριάκοντα δύο ἔτη.

21 Καὶ υἱοὶ Ἰσσαάρ· Κορὲ, καὶ Ναφὲκ, καὶ Ζεχρεί.

22 Καὶ υἱοὶ Ὀζειήλ· Μισαὴλ, καὶ Ἐλισαφὰν, καὶ Σεγρεί.

23 Ἔλαβε δὲ Ἀαρὼν τὴν Ἐλισαβὲθ θυγατέρα Ἀμιναδὰβ, ἀδελφὴν Ναασσὼν, αὐτῷ γυναῖκα· καὶ ἔτεκεν αὐτῷ τόν τε Ναδὰβ, καὶ Ἀβιοὺδ, καὶ τὸν Ἐλεάζαρ, καὶ Ἰθάμαρ.

24 Υἱοὶ δὲ Κορέ· Ἀσεὶρ, καὶ Ἑλκανὰ, καὶ Ἀβιασάρ· αὗται αἱ γενέσεις Κορέ.

25 Καὶ Ἐλεάζαρ ὁ τοῦ Ἀαρὼν ἔλαβε τῶν θυγατέρων Φουτιὴλ αὐτῷ γυναῖκα· καὶ ἔτεκεν αὐτῷ τὸν Φινεές· αὗται αἱ ἀρχαὶ πατριᾶς Λευιτῶν, κατὰ γενέσεις αὐτῶν.

26 Οὗτος Ἀαρὼν καὶ Μωυσῆς, οἷς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς ὁ Θεὸς ἐξαγαγεῖν τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραὴλ ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου σὺν δυνάμει αὐτῶν.

27 Οὗτοί εἰσιν οἱ διαλεγόμενοι πρὸς Φαραὼ βασιλέα Αἰγύπτου· καὶ ἐξήγαγον τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραὴλ ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου αὐτὸς Ἀαρὼν καὶ Μωυσὴς,

28 ᾗ ἡμέρᾳ ἐλάλησε Κύριος Μωυσῇ ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ.

29 Καὶ ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν, λέγων, ἐγὼ Κύριος· λάλησον πρὸς Φαραὼ βασιλέα Αἰγύπτου ὅσα ἐγὼ λέγω πρὸς σέ.

30 Καὶ εἶπε Μωυσῆς ἐναντίον Κυρίου, ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἰσχνόφωνός εἰμι, καὶ πῶς εἰσακούσεταί μου Φαραώ,

1 And the Lord said to Moses, Now thou shalt see what I will do to Pharao; for he shall send them forth with a mighty hand, and with a high arm shall he cast them out of his land.

2 And God spoke to Moses and said to him, I am the Lord.

The Lord.

3 And I appeared to Abraam and Isaac and Jacob, being their God, but I did not manifest to them my name Lord.

4 And I established my covenant with them, to give them the land of the Chananites, the land wherein they sojourned, in which also they dwelt as strangers.

5 And I hearkened to the groaning of the children of Israel (the affliction with which the Egyptians enslave them) and I remembered the covenant with you.

your covenant.

6 Go, speak to the children of Israel, saying, I am the Lord; and I will lead you forth from the tyranny of the Egyptians, and I will deliver you from bondage, and I will ransom you with a high arm, and great judgment.

7 And I will take you to me a people for myself, and will be your God; and ye shall know that I am the Lord your God, who brought you out from the tyranny of the Egyptians.

8 And I will bring you into the land concerning which I stretched out my hand to give it to Abraam and Isaac and Jacob, and I will give it you for an inheritance: I am the Lord.

9 And Moses spoke thus to the sons of Israel, and they hearkened not to Moses for faint-heartedness, and for their hard tasks.

10 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

11 Go in, speak to Pharao king of Egypt, that he send forth the children of Israel out of his land.

12 And Moses spoke before the Lord, saying, Behold, the children of Israel hearkened not to me, and how shall Pharao hearken to me? and I am not eloquent.

13 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, and gave them a charge to Pharao king of Egypt, that he should send forth the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt.

14 And these are the heads of the houses of their families: the sons of Ruben the first-born of Israel; Enoch and Phallus, Asron, and Charmi, this is the kindred of Ruben.

26 This is Aaron and Moses, whom God told to bring out the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt with their forces.

27 These are they that spoke with Pharao king of Egypt, and Aaron himself and Moses brought out the children of Israel from the land of Egypt,

28 in the day in which the Lord spoke to Moses in the land of Egypt;

29 then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, I am the Lord: speak to Pharao king of Egypt whatsoever I say to thee.

30 And Moses said before the Lord, Behold, I am not able in speech, and how shall Pharao hearken to me?
