The LORD 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.”
2 Ngai agĩcooka akĩĩra Musa atĩrĩ, “Nĩ niĩ Jehova.
God spoke to Moses, and said to him, “I am the LORD.
3 Nĩ niĩ ndoimĩrĩire Iburahĩmu, na Isaaka, o na Jakubu ndĩ Mũrungu Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, no matiamenyire na rĩĩtwa rĩu rĩakwa Jehova.

Moreover I have heard the groaning of the children of Israel, whom the Egyptians keep in bondage, and I have remembered my covenant.

Therefore tell the children of Israel, ‘I am the LORD, 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 judgements.
7 Ngaamuoya ta andũ akwa kĩũmbe, na nduĩke Ngai wanyu. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmũkamenya atĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu ũrĩa wamũrutire icooki-inĩ rĩa andũ a Misiri.
I will take you to myself for a people. I will be your God; and you shall know that I am the LORD your God, who brings you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.
8 Na nĩngamũtwara bũrũri ũrĩa ndeeranĩire na mwĩhĩtwa nyambararĩtie guoko atĩ nĩngaahe Iburahĩmu, na Isaaka, o na Jakubu. Nĩguo ngũmũhe mũwĩgwatĩre ũtuĩke wanyu. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova.’”

Moses spoke before the LORD, saying, “Behold, the children of Israel haven’t listened to me. How then shall Pharaoh listen to me, when I have uncircumcised lips?”
