< 出埃及記 6 >

1 耶和華對摩西說:「現在你必看見我向法老所行的事,使他因我大能的手容以色列人去,且把他們趕出他的地。」
Then Yahweh said to Moses, “Now you will see what I will do to Pharaoh. You will see this, for he will let them go because of my strong hand. Because of my strong hand, he will drive them out of his land.”
2 上帝曉諭摩西說:「我是耶和華。
God spoke to Moses and said to him, “I am Yahweh.
3 我從前向亞伯拉罕、以撒、雅各顯現為全能的上帝;至於我名耶和華,他們未曾知道。
I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob as God Almighty; but by my name, Yahweh, I was not known to them.
4 我與他們堅定所立的約,要把他們寄居的迦南地賜給他們。
I also established my covenant with them, in order to give them the land of Canaan, the land where they lived as non-citizens, the land in which they wandered about.
5 我也聽見以色列人被埃及人苦待的哀聲,我也記念我的約。
Moreover, I have heard the groaning of the Israelites whom the Egyptians have enslaved, and I have called to mind my covenant.
6 所以你要對以色列人說:『我是耶和華;我要用伸出來的膀臂重重地刑罰埃及人,救贖你們脫離他們的重擔,不做他們的苦工。
Therefore, say to the Israelites, 'I am Yahweh. I will bring you out from slavery under the Egyptians, and I will free you from their power. I will rescue you with a display of my power, and with mighty acts of judgment.
7 我要以你們為我的百姓,我也要作你們的上帝。你們要知道我是耶和華-你們的上帝,是救你們脫離埃及人之重擔的。
I will take you to myself as my people, and I will be your God. You will know that I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out from slavery under the Egyptians.
8 我起誓應許給亞伯拉罕、以撒、雅各的那地,我要把你們領進去,將那地賜給你們為業。我是耶和華。』」
I will bring you into the land that I swore to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob. I will give it to you as a possession. I am Yahweh.'”
9 摩西將這話告訴以色列人,只是他們因苦工愁煩,不肯聽他的話。
When Moses told this to the Israelites, they would not listen to him because of their discouragement about their harsh slavery.
10 耶和華曉諭摩西說:
Then Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
11 「你進去對埃及王法老說,要容以色列人出他的地。」
“Go tell Pharaoh, king of Egypt, to let the people of Israel go from his land.”
12 摩西在耶和華面前說:「以色列人尚且不聽我的話,法老怎肯聽我這拙口笨舌的人呢?」
Moses said to Yahweh, “If the Israelites have not listened to me, why will Pharaoh listen to me, since I am not good at speaking?”
13 耶和華吩咐摩西、亞倫往以色列人和埃及王法老那裏去,把以色列人從埃及地領出來。
