Exodus 6
1 But the Lord told Moses, “Now you'll see what I'm going to do to Pharaoh. Using my great strength I will force him to let them go; because of my power he will send them out from his country.”
Dixitque Dominus ad Moysen: Nunc videbis quæ facturus sim Pharaoni: per manum enim fortem dimittet eos, et in manu robusta eiiciet illos de terra sua.
2 God spoke to Moses and told him, “I am Yahweh!
Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen dicens: Ego Dominus
3 I revealed myself as God Almighty to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, but they didn't know my name, ‘Yahweh.’
qui apparui Abraham, Isaac, et Iacob in Deo omnipotente: et nomen meum ADONAI non indicavi eis.
4 I also confirmed my solemn agreement with them to give them the land of Canaan, the country where they were living as foreigners.
Pepigique fœdus cum eis, ut darem eis Terram Chanaan, terram peregrinationis eorum, in qua fuerunt advenæ.
5 In addition I've heard the groans of the Israelites that the Egyptians are treating as slaves, and I haven't forgotten the agreement I promised them.
Ego audivi gemitum filiorum Israel, quo Ægyptii oppresserunt eos: et recordatus sum pacti mei.
6 So tell the Israelites, ‘I am the Lord and I will save you from the forced labor the Egyptians are making you do; I will set you free from being their slaves. I will rescue you using my power and imposing heavy punishments.
Ideo dic filiis Israel: Ego Dominus qui educam vos de ergastulo Ægyptiorum, et eruam de servitute: ac redimam in brachio excelso, et iudiciis magnis.
7 I will make you my own people. Then you will know that I am the Lord your God, who rescued you from slavery in Egypt.
Et assumam vos mihi in populum, et ero vester Deus: et scietis quod ego sum Dominus Deus vester qui eduxerim vos de ergastulo Ægyptiorum:
8 I will take you to the land that I solemnly promised to give to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. I will give it to you to own. I am the Lord!’”
et induxerim in terram, super quam levavi manum meam ut darem eam Abraham, Isaac, et Iacob: daboque illam vobis possidendam, ego Dominus.
9 Moses explained this to the Israelites but they did not listen to him, because they were so discouraged and because of the hard labor they were forced to do.
Narravit ergo Moyses omnia filiis Israel: qui non acquieverunt ei propter angustiam spiritus, et opus durissimum.
10 Then the Lord said to Moses,
Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
11 “Go and speak to Pharaoh, king of Egypt. Tell him to let the Israelites leave his country.”
Ingredere, et loquere ad Pharaonem regem Ægypti, ut dimittat filios Israel de terra sua.
12 But Moses replied, “Even my own people don't listen to me. Why would Pharaoh listen to me, especially since I'm such a poor speaker?”
Respondit Moyses coram Domino: Ecce filii Israel non audiunt me: et quo modo audiet Pharao, præsertim cum incircumcisus sim labiis?
13 But the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, and told them what to do regarding the people of Israel and Pharaoh, king of Egypt, in order to bring the Israelites out of Egypt.
Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen et Aaron, et dedit mandatum ad filios Israel, et ad Pharaonem regem Ægypti ut educerent filios Israel de terra Ægypti.

26 Aaron and Moses mentioned here are the ones the Lord told, “Lead the Israelites out of Egypt, divided up in their respective tribes.”
Iste est Aaron et Moyses, quibus præcepit Dominus ut educerent filios Israel de Terra Ægypti per turmas suas.
27 Moses and Aaron were also the ones who went to speak with Pharaoh, king of Egypt, about the Israelites leaving Egypt.
Hi sunt, qui loquuntur ad Pharaonem regem Ægypti, ut educant filios Israel de Ægypto: iste est Moyses et Aaron,
28 When the Lord spoke to Moses in Egypt,
in die qua locutus est Dominus ad Moysen, in Terra Ægypti.
29 he said to him, “I am the Lord. Tell Pharaoh, king of Egypt, all that I tell you.”
Et locutus est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens: Ego Dominus: loquere ad Pharaonem regem Ægypti, omnia quæ ego loquor tibi.
30 But Moses replied, “I'm not a good speaker—why would Pharaoh listen to me?”
Et ait Moyses coram Domino: En incircumcisus labiis sum, quo modo audiet me Pharao?
