Exodus 3



1 Now Drawn (Moses) kept the flock of His Abundance (Jethro) his father in law, the priest of Strife (Midian). He led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God ('Elohiym), at Desert (Horeb).
2 The angel of I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush. He looked, and, saw a bush burning with fire, yet the bush was not consumed.
3 Drawn (Moses) said, “I have to see this great sight and why the bush is not burnt.”
4 When I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) saw that he turned aside to see, God ('Elohiym) called to him out of the midst of the bush, and said, “Drawn (Moses), Drawn (Moses) .” Drawn (Moses) replied, “Here I am.”
5 He said, “Do not come close. Take your shoes off your feet, for the place where you stand is holy ground.”
6 Moreover He said, “I am the God ('Elohiym) of your father, the God ('Elohiym) of Father of a Multitude (Abraham), the God ('Elohiym) of Laughter (Isaac), and the God of Heel-Grabber (Jacob).” Drawn (Moses) hid his face; for he was afraid to look on God ('Elohiym).
7 I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) said, “I have seen the affliction of my people who are in Double Straights (Egypt), and have heard their cry against their taskmasters; for I know their sorrows.
8 I am coming down to deliver them out of the hand of the Double Straighters (Egyptians), and to bring them up out of that land to a good spacious land, to a land flowing with milk and honey; to the place of the Humbled Ones (Canaanites), and the Terrors (Hittite), and the The Talkers, Sayers (Amorite), and the Village Dwellers (Perizzite), and the Villagers (Gibeonites were Hivites), and the Trodden Underfoot (Jebusites - original inhabitants of Jerusalem).
9 The cry of the children of God Prevails (Israel) has come to me and I have seen the oppression with which the Double Straighters (Egyptians) oppress them.
10 Come now therefore. I will send you to the Great House (Pharaoh), to bring forth my people, the children of God Prevails (Israel), out of Double Straights (Egypt).”
11 Drawn (Moses) asked God ('Elohiym), “Who am I, that I should go to the Great House (Pharaoh), and that I should bring forth the children of God Prevails (Israel) out of Double Straights (Egypt)?”
12 And He said, “Certainly I will be with you. This will be a sign to you, that I have sent you: When you have brought forth the people out of Double Straights (Egypt), you shall serve God ('Elohiym) on this mountain.”
13 Drawn (Moses) asked God ('Elohiym), “When I come to the children of God Prevails (Israel) , and say to them, The God ('Elohiym) of your fathers has sent me to you, they will say to me, 'What is His name?' What shall I say to them?”
14 God ('Elohiym) answered Drawn (Moses), I AM THAT I AM”: and He added, “This is what you shall say to the children of God Prevails (Israel) , I AM has sent me to you.”
15 God ('Elohiym) also said to Drawn (Moses), “This is what you will say to the children of God Prevails (Israel): I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) God ('Elohiym) of your fathers, the God ('Elohiym) of Father of a Multitude (Abraham), the God ('Elohiym) of Laughter (Isaac), and the God ('Elohiym) of Heel-Grabber (Jacob), has sent me to you: this is My Name for ever, and this is My memorial to all generations.
16 Go, gather the elders of God Prevails (Israel) together, and say to them, I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) God ('Elohiym) of your fathers, the God ('Elohiym) of Father of a Multitude (Abraham), of Laughter (Isaac), and of Heel-Grabber (Jacob), appeared to me, saying, I have surely visited you, and seen that which is done to you in Double Straights (Egypt).
17 I have decided and proclaimed that I will bring you up out of the affliction of Double Straights (Egypt) into the land of the Humbled Ones (Canaanites), and the Terrors (Hittite), and the The Talkers, Sayers (Amorite), and the Village Dwellers (Perizzite), and the Villagers (Gibeonites were Hivites), and the Trodden Underfoot (Jebusite - original inhabitants of Jerusalem), into a land flowing with milk and honey.
18 They will listen to your voice: and you will go, you and the elders of God Prevails (Israel) , to the king of Double Straights (Egypt), and you will say to him, 'I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) God ('Elohiym) of the One From Beyonds (Hebrews) has met with us. Now let us go, we beseech you, three days' journey into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice to I AM (the LORD, Yehovah) our God ('Elohiym).'
19 I am sure that the king of Double Straights (Egypt) will not let you go, no, not but by a mighty hand.
20 I will stretch out my hand, and smite Double Straights (Egypt) with all my wonders which I will do in the midst of them. After that he will let you go.
21 I will give this people favor in the sight of the Double Straighters (Egyptians). It shall come to pass, that, when you go, you will not go empty.
22 Every woman shall borrow of her neighbor, and of her who dwells in her house, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and clothing. You will put them on your sons, and on your daughters; and you will spoil the Double Straighters (Egyptians).”
