Exodus Chapter 6

1 And Jehovah said to Moses, Now you will see what I will do to Pharaoh. For he will send them away with a strong hand, yea, he will drive them out from his land with a strong hand.

2 And God spoke to Moses and said to him, I am Jehovah.

3 And I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob as God Almighty, and by My name JEHOVAH I have not been known to them.

Exodus Chapter 6

4 And I also established My covenant with them to give to them the land of Canaan, the land of their travels, in which they abode.

5 And I also have heard the groaning of the sons of Israel, whom the Egyptians are enslaving. And I have remembered My covenant.

6 Therefore, say to the sons of Israel, I am Jehovah, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of Egypt, and will deliver you from their slavery. And I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with great judgments.

Exodus Chapter 6

7 And I will take you for Myself for a people, and I will be a God for you. And you shall know that I am Jehovah your God, the One bringing you out from under the burdens of Egypt.

8 And I will bring you into the land which I raised My hand to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob. And I will give it to you for a possession. I am Jehovah!

9 And Moses spoke to the sons of Israel. And they did not listen to Moses, from anguish of spirit and from hard bondage.
