Exodus 6
1 Yahweh said to Moses, “Now you shall see what I will do to Pharaoh, for by a strong hand he shall let them go, and by a strong hand he shall drive them out of his land.”
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。」
2 God spoke to Moses, and said to him, “I am Yahweh.
上帝曉諭摩西說：「我是耶和華。
3 I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, as God Almighty; but by my name Yahweh I was not known to them.
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。
4 I have also established my covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their travels, in which they lived as aliens.
我與他們堅定所立的約，要把他們寄居的迦南地賜給他們。
5 Moreover I have heard the groaning of the children of Israel, whom the Egyptians keep in bondage, and I have remembered my covenant.
我也聽見以色列人被埃及人苦待的哀聲，我也記念我的約。
6 Therefore tell the children of Israel, ‘I am Yahweh, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will rid you out of their bondage, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm, and with great judgments.
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。
7 I will take you to myself for a people. I will be your God; and you shall know that I am Yahweh your God, who brings you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.
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。
8 I will bring you into the land which I swore to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it to you for a heritage: I am Yahweh.’”
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。』」
9 Moses spoke so to the children of Israel, but they didn’t listen to Moses for anguish of spirit, and for cruel bondage.
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。
