    Moses returns into Egypt. 8 And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe tlieo, neither hearken to the voice of the first sign, that they will be- iieve the voice of the latter sign. 9 And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe also these two signs, neither hearken unto thy voice, that thou shalt take oi the water of the river, and pour it upon the dry land: and the water which thou takest out of the river P shall be- come* blood upon the dry land. 10 And Moses said unto tho Lord, O my Lord, I am not y eloquent, neither 6 heretofore, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant: but I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue. 11 Ajid the Lord said unto him, Who hath made man’s mouth?/ or who maketh th.e dumb, or deaf, or the seeing, or the blind ? have not I the Lord ? 12 Now therefore go, and I will be with tliy mouth, and teach thee what41 thou shalt say. 13 Aud he said, O my Lord, send, I pray thee, by the hand of Aim whom thou f wilt send. 14 And the anger of the Lord was kin- dled against Moses; and he said, Is not Aaron the Levite thy brother? I know that he can speak well. And also, behold, he cometh forth to meet thee; and when he seeth thee,”1 he will be glad in lhs heart. 15 And thou shalt speak unto him, and put words” in his mouth: and I will be with thy mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you what ye shall do. 16 And he shall be thy spokesman unto the people: and he shall be, even he shall be to thee instead of a mouth, and thou shalt be to him instead0 of God. 17 And thou shalt take this rod” in thine hand, wherewith thou shalt do signs. 18 And Moses went, and returned to 7? Jethro bis father in law, and said unto him, Let me go, I pray thee, and return unto my brethren which are in Egypt, and see whether they be yet alive. And Jeth- ro said to Moses, Go in peace. 19 And the Lord said unto Moses in Midian, Go, return into Egypt: for all the men” are dead which sought thy life. 20 And Moses took his wife and his sons, and set them upon an ass, and he returned to the land of Egypt: and Mose3 took the rod* of God in his hand. 21 And the Lord said unto Moses, When thou goest to return into Egypt, see that thou do all those” wonders be- fore Pharaoh, which I have put in thine hand: but I will harden” Iris heart, that he shall not let the people go. 22 And thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, Thus saith the Lord, Israel is my son,10 even my firstborn: 23 And I say unto thee, Let my son go, that he may serve me: and if thou refuse to let him go, behold, I will slay* thy son, even thy firstborn. 24 And it came to pass, by the way in the inn, that tho Lords' met him, and sought to kill; him. 25 Then Zipporah topic a sharp * stone, and® cut off the foreskin of her son, and cast nit at his feet, and said, Surely a bloody husband art thou to me. 26 So he let him go: then she said, A bloody husband tliou art, because of the circumcision.

TEND afterward Moses and Aaron went in,. and told Pharaoh, Thus saith the Lord God i , Isra|h Let my people go, that they may., hold a least4 unto me in the wilderness. 2 Arid Pharaoh said,* Who is the Lord, that I should obey his voice to let Israel go ? I know not the Lord, neither will 1 1 let Israel go. 3 And they said. The God of the4 Hebrews - hath met with us: let us go, we pray thee,: three days’ journey into the desert, and sa- crifice unto the Lord our God; lest he fall 1 upon us with pestilence* or with the sword. 4 And the king of Egypt said unto them, Wherefore do ye, Moses and Aaron,. let the people from their works ? get you; unto your burdens. 5 And Pharaoh said, Behold, the peo-- ple of the land now are many, anci ye make them rest from their burdens. 6 And Pharaoh commanded the same day the taskmasters of the people, and. their officers, saying, 7 Ye shall no more give the people straw to make brick, as heretofore: let them go and gather straw for themselves. 8 And the tale of the bricks, which they did make heretofore, ye shall lay? upon them; ye shall not diminish ought thereof; for they he idle; therefore they cry, say- ing, Let us go and sacrifice to our God. 9 Let 0 there more work be laid upon the men, that they may labour therein: and let them not regard vain* words. 10 And the taskmasters of the people went out, and their officers, and they spake to the people, saying, Thus saith Pharaoh, I will not give you straw'. 11 Go ye, get you straw w’here ye can find it: yet not ought of your work shall be diminished. 12 So the people were scattered abroad throughout all the land of Egypt, to ga- ther stubble instead of straw. 13 And the taskmasters hasted them, saying, Fulfil your works, your * daily tasks, as when there wTas straw. 14 And the officers of the children of Israel, which Pharaoh’s taskmasters had set over them, were beaten, and demand- ed, Wherefore have ye not fulfilled your task in making brick, both yesterday and to day. as heretofore ? t 15 Then the officers of the childrenof Israel came and cried unto Pharaoh, saying, Where- fore dealest thou thus wTitk thy servants ? ! 16 There is no straw' given unto thy servants, and they say to us, Make brick: and, behold, thy servants are beaten; but the fault is in thine owm people.
