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 locutusque est Dominus ad Mosen dicens ego Dominus
God spoke to Moses and said to him, “I am Yahweh.
3 qui apparui Abraham Isaac et Iacob in Deo omnipotente et nomen meum Adonai non indicavi eis

4 pepigique cum eis foedus ut darem illis terram Chanaan terram peregrinationis eorum in qua fuerunt advenae
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 ego audivi gemitum filiorum Israhel quo Aegyptii oppresserunt eos et recordatus sum pacti mei
Moreover, I have heard the groaning of the Israelites whom the Egyptians have enslaved, and I have called to mind my covenant.
6 ideo dic filiis Israhel ego Dominus qui educam vos de ergastulo Aegyptiorum et eruam de servitute ac redimam in brachio excelso et iudiciis magnis
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 et adsumam vos mihi in populum et ero vester Deus scietisque quod ego sim Dominus Deus vester qui eduxerim vos de ergastulo Aegyptiorum
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 et induxerim in terram super quam levavi manum meam ut darem eam Abraham Isaac et Iacob daboque illam vobis possidendam ego Dominus
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.'”
