1The Lord God told Moses:
Soon you will see what I will do to the king. Because of my mighty power, he will let my people go, and he will even chase them out of his country.
2
3But when I appeared to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, I came as God All-Powerful and did not use my name.
4I made an agreement and promised them the land of Canaan, where they were living as foreigners.
5Now I have seen how the people of Israel are suffering because of the Egyptians, and I will keep my promise.
6Here is my message for Israel: “I am the Lord! And with my mighty power I will punish the Egyptians and free you from slavery.
7I will accept you as my people, and I will be your God. Then you will know that I was the one who rescued you from the Egyptians.
8I will bring you into the land that I solemnly promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and it will be yours. I am the Lord!”
9When Moses told this to the Israelites, they were too discouraged and mistreated to believe him.
10Then the Lord told Moses
11to demand that the king of Egypt let the Israelites leave.
12But Moses replied, “I'm not a powerful speaker. If the Israelites won't listen to me, why should the king of Egypt?”
13But the Lord sent Aaron and Moses with a message for the Israelites and for the king. He also ordered Aaron and Moses to free the people from Egypt.
