1.    And Jehovah said to Moses, Now shalt thou see what I will do  to Pharaoh; for by a strong hand shall he let them go, and by a  strong hand shall he drive them out of his land.
 
2.    And God spoke to Moses, and said to him, I am Jehovah.
 
3.    And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, as  the Almighty łGod; but by my name Jehovah I was not made known  to them.
 
4.    And I established also my covenant with them, to give them  the land of Canaan, the land of their pilgrimage, in which they  were sojourners.
 
5.    And I have heard also the groaning of the children of  Israel, whom the Egyptians have forced to serve, and I have  remembered my covenant.
 
6.    Therefore say unto the children of Israel, I am Jehovah, and  I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians,  and I will deliver you from their service, and I will redeem  you with a stretched-out arm, and with great judgments.
 
7.    And I will take you to me for a people, and will be your  God; and ye shall know that I, Jehovah your God, am he who  bringeth you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.
 
8.    And I will bring you into the land concerning which I swore  to give it unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob; and I will  give it you for a possession: I am Jehovah.
 
9.    And Moses spoke thus to the children of Israel; but they did  not listen to Moses from anguish of spirit, and from hard  service.
 
10.    And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
 
11.    Go in, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, that he let the  children of Israel go out of his land.
 
12.    And Moses spoke before Jehovah, saying, Lo, the children of  Israel do not hearken to me: how then should Pharaoh hearken to  me, to me of uncircumcised lips?
 
13.    And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, and gave them a  commandment to the children of Israel, and to Pharaoh king of  Egypt, to bring the children of Israel out of the land of  Egypt.
 
14.    These are the heads of their fathers` houses: the sons of  Reuben, the firstborn of Israel: Enoch and Phallu, Hezron and  Carmi: these are the families of Reuben.
 
15.    -- And the sons of Simeon: Jemuel, and Jamin, and Ohad, and  Jachin, and Zohar, and Saul the son of a Canaanitish woman:  these are the families of Simeon.
 
16.    And these are the names of the sons of Levi, according to  their generations: Gershon, and Kohath, and Merari. And the  years of the life of Levi were a hundred and thirty-seven  years.
 
17.    The sons of Gershon: Libni and Shimei, according to their  families.
 
18.    And the sons of Kohath: Amram, and Jizhar, and Hebron, and  Uzziel. And the years of the life of Kohath were a hundred and  thirty-three years.
 
19.    And the sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi: these are the  families of Levi according to their generations.

21.    And the sons of Jizhar: Korah, and Nepheg, and Zicri.
 
22.    And the sons of Uzziel: Mishael, and Elzaphan, and Sithri.
 
23.    And Aaron took Elisheba, daughter of Amminadab, sister of  Nahshon, as wife; and she bore him Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and  Ithamar.
 
24.    And the sons of Korah: Assir, and Elkanah, and Abiasaph:  these are the families of the Korahites.
 
25.    And Eleazar Aaron`s son took one of the daughters of  Putiel as wife; and she bore him Phinehas: these are the heads  of the fathers of the Levites according to their families.
 
26.    This is that Aaron and Moses, to whom Jehovah said, Bring  out the children of Israel from the land of Egypt according to  their hosts.
 
27.    These are they who spoke to Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring  out the children of Israel from Egypt: this is that Moses and  Aaron.
 
28.    And it came to pass on the day when Jehovah spoke to Moses  in the land of Egypt,
 
29.    that Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, I am Jehovah: speak  thou unto Pharaoh king of Egypt all that I say unto thee.
 
30.    And Moses said before Jehovah, Behold, I am of  uncircumcised lips, and how will Pharaoh hearken unto me?
