1	And Moses answered# and said# , But, behold, they will not believe# me, nor hearken# unto my voice: for they will say# , The LORD hath not appeared# unto thee.
			2	And the LORD said# unto him, What is that in thine hand? And he said# , A rod.
			3	And he said# , Cast# it on the ground. And he cast# it on the ground, and it became a serpent; and Moses fled# from before it.
			4	And the LORD said# unto Moses, Put forth# thine hand, and take# it by the tail. And he put forth# his hand, and caught# it, and it became a rod in his hand:
			5	That they may believe# that the LORD God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath appeared# unto thee.
			6	And the LORD said# furthermore unto him, Put# now thine hand into thy bosom. And he put# his hand into his bosom: and when he took# it out, behold, his hand was leprous# as snow.
			7	And he said# , Put# thine hand into thy bosom again# . And he put# his hand into his bosom again# ; and plucked# it out of his bosom, and, behold, it was turned again# as his other flesh.
			8	And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe# thee, neither hearken# to the voice of the first sign, that they will believe# the voice of the latter sign.
			9	And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe# also these two signs, neither hearken# unto thy voice, that thou shalt take# of the water of the river, and pour# it upon the dry land : and the water which thou takest# out of the river shall become blood upon the dry land . [shall become: Heb. shall be and shall be]
			10	And Moses said# unto the LORD, O my Lord, I am not eloquent, neither heretofore# , nor since thou hast spoken# unto thy servant: but I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue. [eloquent: Heb. a man of words] [heretofore: Heb. since yesterday, nor since the third day]
			11	And the LORD said# unto him, Who hath made# man's mouth? or who maketh# the dumb, or deaf, or the seeing, or the blind? have not I the LORD?
			12	Now therefore go# , and I will be with thy mouth, and teach# thee what thou shalt say# .
			13	And he said# , O my Lord, send# , I pray thee, by the hand of him whom thou wilt send# . [wilt: or, shouldest]
			14	And the anger of the LORD was kindled# against Moses, and he said# , Is not Aaron the Levite thy brother? I know# that he can speak# well# . And also, behold, he cometh forth# to meet# thee: and when he seeth# thee, he will be glad# in his heart.
			15	And thou shalt speak# unto him, and put# words in his mouth: and I will be with thy mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach# you what ye shall do# .
			16	And he shall be thy spokesman# unto the people: and he shall be, even he shall be to thee instead of a mouth, and thou shalt be to him instead of God.
			17	And thou shalt take# this rod in thine hand, wherewith thou shalt do# signs.
			18	And Moses went# and returned# to Jethro his father in law# , and said# unto him, Let me go# , I pray thee, and return# unto my brethren which are in Egypt, and see# whether they be yet alive. And Jethro said# to Moses, Go# in peace. [Jethro: Heb. Jether]
			19	And the LORD said# unto Moses in Midian, Go# , return# into Egypt: for all the men are dead# which sought# thy life.
			20	And Moses took# his wife and his sons, and set# them upon an ass, and he returned# to the land of Egypt: and Moses took# the rod of God in his hand.
			21	And the LORD said# unto Moses, When thou goest# to return# into Egypt, see# that thou do# all those wonders before Pharaoh, which I have put# in thine hand: but I will harden# his heart, that he shall not let the people go# .
			22	And thou shalt say# unto Pharaoh, Thus saith# the LORD, Israel is my son, even my firstborn:
			23	And I say# unto thee, Let my son go# , that he may serve# me: and if thou refuse# to let him go# , behold, I will slay# thy son, even thy firstborn.
			24	And it came to pass by the way in the inn, that the LORD met# him, and sought# to kill# him.
			25	Then Zipporah took# a sharp stone, and cut off# the foreskin of her son, and cast# it at his feet, and said# , Surely a bloody husband art thou to me. [sharp...: or, knife] [cast...: Heb. made it touch]
			26	So he let him go# : then she said# , A bloody husband thou art , because of the circumcision.
			27	And the LORD said# to Aaron, Go# into the wilderness to meet# Moses. And he went# , and met# him in the mount of God, and kissed# him.
			28	And Moses told# Aaron all the words of the LORD who had sent# him, and all the signs which he had commanded# him.
			29	And Moses and Aaron went# and gathered together# all the elders of the children of Israel:
			30	And Aaron spake# all the words which the LORD had spoken# unto Moses, and did# the signs in the sight of the people.
			31	And the people believed# : and when they heard# that the LORD had visited# the children of Israel, and that he had looked# upon their affliction, then they bowed their heads# and worshipped# .
