1But the Lord said to Moses, “Now you shall see what I will do to Pharaoh; for with a strong hand he will send them out, and with a strong hand he will drive them out of his land.”2God spoke to Moses and said to him, “I am the Lord.3I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, as God Almighty,* but by my name the Lord I did not make myself known to them.4I also established my covenant with them to give them the land of Canaan, the land in which they lived as sojourners.5Moreover, I have heard the groaning of the people of Israel whom the Egyptians hold as slaves, and I have remembered my covenant.6Say therefore to the people of Israel, ‘I am the Lord, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will deliver you from slavery to them, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with great acts of judgment.7I will take you to be my people, and I will be your God, and you shall know that I am the Lord your God, who has brought you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.8I will bring you into the land that I swore to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob. I will give it to you for a possession. I am the Lord.’”9Moses spoke thus to the people of Israel, but they did not listen to Moses, because of their broken spirit and harsh slavery.10So the Lord said to Moses,11“Go in, tell Pharaoh king of Egypt to let the people of Israel go out of his land.”12But Moses said to the Lord, “Behold, the people of Israel have not listened to me. How then shall Pharaoh listen to me, for I am of uncircumcised lips?”13But the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron and gave them a charge about the people of Israel and about Pharaoh king of Egypt: to bring the people of Israel out of the land of Egypt.

New International Version
1Then the Lord said to Moses, ‘Now you will see what I will do to Pharaoh: because of my mighty hand he will let them go; because of my mighty hand he will drive them out of his country.’2God also said to Moses, ‘I am the Lord.3I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob as God Almighty,* but by my name the Lord* I did not make myself known to them.4I also established my covenant with them to give them the land of Canaan, where they resided as foreigners.5Moreover, I have heard the groaning of the Israelites, whom the Egyptians are enslaving, and I have remembered my covenant.6‘Therefore, say to the Israelites: “I am the Lord, and I will bring you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians. I will free you from being slaves to them, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with mighty acts of judgment.7I will take you as my own people, and I will be your God. Then you will know that I am the Lord your God, who brought you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians.8And I will bring you to the land I swore with uplifted hand to give to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob. I will give it to you as a possession. I am the Lord.” ’9Moses reported this to the Israelites, but they did not listen to him because of their discouragement and harsh labour.10Then the Lord said to Moses,11‘Go, tell Pharaoh king of Egypt to let the Israelites go out of his country.’12But Moses said to the Lord, ‘If the Israelites will not listen to me, why would Pharaoh listen to me, since I speak with faltering lips*?’

Aaron to speak for Moses
28Now when the Lord spoke to Moses in Egypt,29he said to him, ‘I am the Lord. Tell Pharaoh king of Egypt everything I tell you.’30But Moses said to the Lord, ‘Since I speak with faltering lips, why would Pharaoh listen to me?’
