Exodus 4

1 And he answered Moses and he said and here! not they will believe me and not they will listen to voice my for they will say not he appeared to you Yahweh.

Moyses answeride, and seide, The comyns schulen not bileue to me, nether thei schulen here my vois; but thei schulen seie, The Lord apperide not to thee.

2 And he said to him Yahweh (what [is] this? *Q(K)*) [is] in hand your and he said a staff.

Therfor the Lord seide to hym, What is this that thou holdist in thin hond? Moises answeride, A yerde.

3 And he said throw it [the] ground towards and he threw it [the] ground towards and it became a snake and he fled Moses from before it.

And the Lord seide, Caste it forth into erthe; and he castide forth, and it was turned in to a serpent, so that Moises fledde.

4 And he said Yahweh to Moses stretch out hand your and hold on tail its and he stretched out hand his and he took hold on it and it became a staff in hand his.

And the Lord seide, Holde forth thin hond, and take the tail therof; he stretchide forth, and helde, and it was turned in to a yerde.

5 So that they may believe that he appeared to you Yahweh [the] God ancestors their [the] God of Abraham [the] God of Isaac and [the] God of Jacob.

And the Lord seide, That thei bileue, that the Lord God of thi fadris apperide to thee, God of Abraham, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob.

6 And he said Yahweh to him again put please hand your in bosom your and he put hand his in bosom his and he brought out it and there! hand his [was] leprous like snow.

And the Lord seide eft, Putte thin hond in to thi bosum; and whanne he hadde put it in to the bosum, he brouyte forth it leprouse, at the licnesse of snow.

7 And he said return hand your into bosom your and he returned hand his into bosom his and he brought out it from bosom his and there! it had turned back like flesh his.

The Lord seide, Withdrawe thin hond in to thi bosum; he withdrow, and brouyte forth eft, and it was lijc the tother fleisch.

8 And it will be if not they will believe you and not they will listen to [the] voice of the sign former and they will believe [the] voice of the sign latter.

The Lord seide, If thei schulen not bileue to thee, nether schulen here the word of the formere signe, thei schulen bileue to the word of the signe suynge;

9 And it will be if not they will believe also [the] two the signs these and not they will listen! to voice your and you will take some of [the] water of the River and you will pour [it] out the dry ground and they will become the waters which you will take from the River and they will become blood on the dry ground.

that if thei bileuen not sotheli to these twei signes, nether heren thi vois, take thou watir of the flood, and schedde out it on the drie lond, and what euer thing thou schalt drawe vp of the flood, it schal be turned in to blood.

10 And he said Moses to Yahweh pardon me O Lord not [am] a man of words I neither from yesterday nor from three days ago nor from then speaking you to servant your for [am] heavy of mouth and heavy of tongue I.

Moises seide, Lord, Y biseche, Y am `not eloquent fro yistirdai and the thridde dai ago; and sithen thou hast spokun to thi seruaunt, Y am of more lettid and slowere tunge.

11 And he said Yahweh to him who? did he make a mouth of person or who? does he make dumb or deaf or seeing or blind ¿ not [do] I Yahweh.

The Lord seide to hym, Who made the mouth of man, ether who made a doumb man and `deef, seynge and blynd? whether not Y?

12 And therefore go and I I will be with mouth your and I will teach you [that] which you will say.

Therfor go thou, and Y schal be in thi mouth, and Y schal teche thee what thou schalt speke.

13 And he said pardon me O Lord send please by [the] hand of [whoever] you will send.

And he seide, Lord, Y biseche, sende thou whom thou schalt sende.

14 And it burned [the] anger of Yahweh on Moses and he said ¿ not [is] Aaron brother your the Levite I know that well he speaks he and also there! he [is] coming out to meet you and he will see you and he will be glad in heart his.

And the Lord was wrooth ayens Moises, and seide, Y woot, that Aaron, thi brother, of the lynage of Leuy, is eloquent; lo! he schal go out in to thi comyng, and he schal se thee, and schal be glad in herte.

15 And you will speak to him and you will put the words in mouth his and I I will be with mouth your and with mouth his and I will teach you [that] which you will do!

Speke thou to hym, and putte thou my wordis in his mouth, and Y schal be in thi mouth, and in the mouth of hym; and Y schal schewe to you what ye owen to do.

16 And he will speak he for you to the people and it will be he he will become of you a mouth and you you will become of him a god.

He schal speke for thee to the puple, and he schal be thi mouth; forsothe thou schalt be to him in these thingis, that perteynen to God.

17 And the staff this you will take in hand your which you will do with it the signs.

Also take thou this yerde in thin hond, in which thou schalt do myraclis.

18 And he went Moses and he returned - to Jethro father-in-law his and he said to him let me go please so I may return to relatives my who [are] in Egypt so I may see ¿ [are] still they living and he said Jethro to Moses go to peace.

Moises yede, and turnede ayen to Jetro, his wyues fadir, and seide to hym, Y schal go, and turne ayen to my britheren in to Egipt, that Y se, whether thei lyuen yit. To whom Jetro seide, Go thou in pees.

19 And he said Yahweh to Moses in Midian go return Egypt for they have died all the men who sought life your.

Therfor the Lord seide to Moyses in Madian, Go thou, and turne ayen into Egipt; for alle thei ben deed that souyten thi lijf.

20 And he took Moses wife his and sons his and he made ride them on the donkey and he returned [the] land of towards Egypt and he took Moses [the] staff of God in hand his.

Moises took his wijf, and hise sones, and puttide hem on an asse, and he turnede ayen in to Egipt, and bar the yerde of God in his hond.

21 And he said Yahweh to Moses when going you to return Egypt towards see all the wonders which I have put in hand your and you will do them before Pharaoh and I I will make strong heart his and not he will let go the people.

And the Lord seide to hym turnynge ayen in to Egipt, Se, that thou do alle wondris, whiche Y haue put in thin hond, bifore Farao; Y schal make hard his herte, and he schal not delyuere the puple; and thou schalt seie to hym,

22 And you will say to Pharaoh thus he says Yahweh [is] son my firstborn my Israel.

The Lord seith these thingis, My firste gendrid sone is Israel;

23 And I said to you let go son my so he may serve me and you refused to let go him here! I [am] about to kill son your firstborn your.

Y seide to thee, delyuere thou my sone, that he serue me, and thou noldist delyuere hym; lo! Y schal sle thi firste gendrid sone.

24 And it was on the journey at the lodging place and he met him Yahweh and he sought to kill him.

And whanne Moises was in the weie, in an yn, the Lord cam to him, and wolde sle hym.

25 And she took Zipporah a flint and she cut off [the] foreskin of son her and she made [it] touch feet his and she said that [are] a bridegroom of blood you to me.

Sefora took anoon a moost scharp stoon, and circumcidide the yerde of hir sone; and sche towchide `the feet of Moises, and seide, Thou art an hosebonde of bloodis to me.

26 And he withdrew from him then she said a bridegroom of blood to the circumcision.

And he lefte hym, aftir that sche hadde seid, Thou art an hosebonde of bloodis to me for circumcisioun.

27 And he said Yahweh to Aaron go to meet Moses the wilderness towards and he went and he met him at [the] mountain of God and he kissed him.

Forsothe the Lord seide to Aaron, Go thou in to the comyng of Moises in to deseert; which yede ayens Moises in to the hil of God, and kisside him.

28 And he told Moses to Aaron all [the] words of Yahweh which he had sent him and all the signs which he had commanded him.

And Moises telde to Aaron alle the wordis of the Lord, for whiche he hadde sent Moises; and `he telde the myraclis, whiche the Lord hadde comaundid.

29 And he went Moses and Aaron and they gathered all [the] elders of [the] people of Israel.

And thei camen togidere, and gaderiden alle the eldere men of the sones of Israel.

30 And he spoke Aaron all the words which he had spoken Yahweh to Moses and he did the signs to [the] eyes of the people.

And Aaron spak alle the wordis, whiche the Lord hadde seid to Moises, and he dide the signes bifore the puple;

31 And it believed the people and they heard that he had observed Yahweh [the] people of Israel and that he had seen affliction their and they bowed low and they bowed down.

and the puple bileuede; and thei herden, that the Lord hadde visitid the sones of Israel, and that he hadde biholde the turment of hem; and thei worschipiden lowe.
