Then Jehovah said to Moses, Now you shall see what I will do to Pharaoh. For with a strong hand he will let them go, and with a strong hand he will drive them out of his land.

Therefore say to the sons of Israel: I am Jehovah; I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, I will rescue you from their bondage, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with great judgments.

And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying:

For Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They are perplexed by the land; the wilderness has closed them in.

And it was told the king of Egypt that the people had fled, and the heart of Pharaoh and his servants was turned against the people; and they said, Why have we done this, that we have let Israel go from serving us?

And he took six hundred choice chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt with officers over every one of them.

And the Egyptians pursued them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, his horsemen and his army, and overtook them camping by the sea beside Pi Hahiroth, before Baal Zephon.

And they said unto Moses, Because there were no graves in Egypt, have you taken us away to die in the wilderness? Why have you dealt so with us, to bring us up out of Egypt?

And Moses said to the people, Do not be afraid. Take your stand, and see the salvation of Jehovah, which He will accomplish for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall not see again forever.

And Jehovah said to Moses, Why do you cry out to Me? Speak to the children of Israel that they set out.

And Moses entreated the face of Jehovah his God, and said: Jehovah, why does Your wrath burn against Your people whom You have brought up out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand?

(for they are Your people and Your inheritance, whom You have brought out of Egypt, out of the midst of the iron furnace),

Now these are Your servants and Your people, whom You have redeemed by Your great power, and by Your strong hand.

For You have set signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, even to this day, and in Israel and among men; and have made Yourself a name, as it is this day;

And You have given them this land, which You swore to their fathers to give them, a land flowing with milk and honey.

who delivered us from so great a death, and does deliver us, in whom we hope that He will still deliver us,

And indeed for this purpose I have ordained you, to show My power in you, and to declare My name in all the earth.

And the Egyptians shall know that I am Jehovah, when I have glorified Myself over Pharaoh, his chariots, and his horsemen.

You gave signs and wonders upon Pharaoh, upon all his servants, and upon all the people of his land. For You knew that they had acted proudly against them. So You made a name for Yourself, as it is this day.

Nevertheless He delivered them for His name's sake, that He might make His mighty power known.

Instead of the thorn, the fir tree shall come up; and instead of the brier, the myrtle tree shall come up; and it shall be to Jehovah for a name, for a perpetual sign that shall not be cut off.

And I wrote it in the document, and sealed it, and called witnesses, and weighed the silver in the scales.

we have sinned and have committed iniquity and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even by departing from Your commandments and from Your judgments.

I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against Heaven and before you,

and I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants.

And the son said to him, Father, I have sinned against Heaven and in your sight, and am no longer worthy to be called your son.

And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to Heaven, but beat his breast, saying, God, be merciful to me a sinner!
