出埃及記 6
1 上主回答梅瑟說：「現在你就要看見我對法朗所要作的；在強硬的手臂下，他必放走他們；在強硬的手腕下，他必將他們逐出自己的國境。」
And the Lord said to Moses: “Now you will see what I shall do to Pharaoh. For through a strong hand he will release them, and by a mighty hand he will cast them from his land.”
2 天主訓示梅瑟說：「我是雅威。
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: “I am the Lord,
3 我曾顯現給亞巴郎、依撒格和雅各伯為「全能的天主，」但沒有以「雅威」的名字將我啟示給他們。
who appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob as Almighty God. And I did not reveal to them my name: ADONAI.
4 我也與他們立了約，許下將他們寄居而作客的客納罕地賜給他們。
And I formed a covenant with them, in order to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their sojourning, in which they were newcomers.
5 如今我聽見了以色列子民因埃及人的奴役而發的唉號，想起了我的約。
I have heard the groaning of the sons of Israel, with which the Egyptians have oppressed them. And I have remembered my covenant.
6 為此你應該對以色列子民說：我是上主，我要使你們擺脫埃及人的虐待，拯救你們脫離他們的奴役，用伸開的手臂，藉嚴厲的懲罰救贖你們。
For this reason, say to the sons of Israel: I am the Lord who will lead you away from the work house of the Egyptians, and rescue you from servitude, and also redeem you with an exalted arm and great judgments.
7 我要以你們作我的百姓，我作你們的天主。你們將承認我是天主，你們的天主，使你們擺脫埃及人的虐待。
And I will take you to myself as my people, and I will be your God. And you will know that I am the Lord your God, who led you away from the work house of the Egyptians,
8 我領你們要去的地方，就是我舉手誓許給亞巴郎、依撒格和雅各伯的地方；我要把那地方賜給你們作產業。─我是上主。」
and who brought you into the land, over which I lifted up my hand in order to grant it to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. And I will grant it to you as a possession. I am the Lord.”
9 梅瑟將這些話告訴了以色列子民，但他們由於苦工喪氣，不肯聽梅瑟的話。
And so, Moses explained all these things to the sons of Israel, who did not agree with him, because of their anguish of spirit and very difficult work.
10 上主訓示梅瑟說：「
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
11 你去告訴埃及王法朗說：」叫他將以色列子民由他國中放走。」
“Enter and speak to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, so that he may release the sons of Israel from his land.”
12 梅瑟當面回答上主說：「以色列子民既不肯聽我，法朗又怎肯聽我﹖況且我又是笨口結舌的人。」
Moses responded in the sight the Lord: “Behold, the sons of Israel do not listen to me. And how will Pharaoh listen to me, especially since I am of uncircumcised lips?”
