Mısır’dan Çıkış 6

¹Ve Rab Musa'ya şöyle dedi: "Şimdi Firavun'a ne yapacağımı göreceksin; çünkü o, güçlü bir el vasıtasıyla onları salıverecek ve kaldırılmış bir kolla onları kendi ülkesinden kovacaktır."

²Ve Tanrı Musa'yla konuştu ve ona şöyle dedi: "Ben Rab'bim.

³İbrahim'e, İshak'a ve Yakup'a onların Tanrısı olarak göründüm, fakat onlara Rab olan adımı açıklamadım.

⁴Yabancı olarak yaşadıkları ve üzerinde gurbetçi olarak ikamet ettikleri Kenan ülkesini kendilerine vermek üzere onlarla antlaşmamı da kurdum.

⁵Mısırlıların köleleştirmekte olduğu İsrailoğulları'nın iniltisini de işittim ve sizinle olan antlaşmamı hatırladım.

⁶Git ve İsrailoğulları'na de ki: 'Ben Rab'bim; sizi Mısırlıların tahakkümünden çıkaracak, köleliklerinden kurtaracak, kaldırılmış bir kolla ve büyük bir yargıyla sizi fidyeyle özgür kılacağım.

⁷Sizi kendime halk olarak alacağım ve sizin Tanrınız olacağım. O zaman sizi Mısırlıların ağır tahakkümünden çıkaran Tanrınız Rab'bin ben olduğumu bileceksiniz.

⁸İbrahim'e, İshak'a ve Yakup'a vermek için elimi kaldırıp ant içtiğim ülkeye sizi götüreceğim; orayı size miras payı olarak vereceğim. Ben Rab'bim.'"

⁹Musa İsrailoğulları'na bunları bu şekilde anlattı, fakat yılgınlıktan ve ağır işlerden ötürü Musa'yı dinlemediler.

¹⁰Ve Rab Musa'ya şöyle diyerek konuştu:

¹¹"İçeri gir ve Mısır Kralı Firavun'a söyle, İsrailoğulları'nı kendi ülkesinden salsın."

¹²Ancak Musa Rab'bin huzurunda konuşarak şöyle dedi: "Bak, İsrailoğulları bile beni dinlemedikten sonra, Firavun beni nasıl dinler? Üstelik ben konuşamayan, dili tutuk biriyim."

¹³Ve Rab Musa ve Harun'la konuştu; İsrailoğulları'nı Mısır ülkesinden çıkarmaları için onlara, hem İsrailoğulları'na hem de Mısır Kralı Firavun'a iletmek üzere buyruk verdi.

²⁸Rab'bin Mısır ülkesinde Musa'yla konuştuğu o günde,

²⁹Rab Musa'ya şöyle dedi: "Ben Rab'bim. Sana söylediğim her şeyi Mısır Kralı Firavun'a ilet."

³⁰Ve Musa Rab'bin huzurunda, "Bak, ben dili tutuk biriyim" dedi, "Firavun beni nasıl dinler?"

¹ΚΑΙ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν· ἤδη ὄψει ἃ ποιήσω τῷ Φαραώ· ἐν γὰρ χειρὶ κραταιᾷ ἐξαποστελεῖ αὐτοὺς καὶ ἐν βραχίονι ὑψηλῷ ἐκβαλεῖ αὐτοὺς ἐκ τῆς γῆς αὐτοῦ.

²᾿Ελάλησε δὲ ὁ Θεὸς πρὸς Μωυσῆν καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτόν· ἐγὼ Κύριος·

³καὶ ὤφθην πρὸς ῾Αβραὰμ καὶ ᾿Ισαὰκ καὶ ᾿Ιακώβ, Θεὸς ὢν αὐτῶν, καὶ τὸ ὄνομά μου Κύριος οὐκ ἐδήλωσα αὐτοῖς·

⁴καὶ ἔστησα τὴν διαθήκην μου πρὸς αὐτοὺς ὥστε δοῦναι αὐτοῖς τὴν γῆν τῶν Χαναναίων, τὴν γῆν, ἣν παρῳκήκασιν, ἐν ᾗ καὶ παρῴκησαν ἐπ᾿ αὐτῆς.

⁵καὶ ἐγὼ εἰσήκουσα τὸν στεναγμὸν τῶν υἱῶν ᾿Ισραήλ, ὃν οἱ Αἰγύπτιοι καταδουλοῦνται αὐτούς, καὶ ἐμνήσθην τῆς διαθήκης ὑμῶν.

⁶βάδιζε, εἰπὸν τοῖς υἱοῖς ᾿Ισραὴλ λέγων· ἐγὼ Κύριος καὶ ἐξάξω ὑμᾶς ἀπὸ τῆς δυναστείας τῶν Αἰγυπτίων καὶ ῥύσομαι ὑμᾶς ἐκ τῆς δουλείας καὶ λυτρώσομαι ὑμᾶς ἐν βραχίονι ὑψηλῷ καὶ κρίσει μεγάλῃ

⁷καὶ λήψομαι ἐμαυτῷ ὑμᾶς λαὸν ἐμοὶ καὶ ἔσομαι ὑμῶν Θεός, καὶ γνώσεσθε ὅτι ἐγὼ Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς ὑμῶν ὁ ἐξαγαγὼν ὑμᾶς ἐκ τῆς καταδυναστείας τῶν Αἰγυπτίων,

⁸καὶ εἰσάξω ὑμᾶς εἰς τὴν γῆν, εἰς ἣν ἐξέτεινα τὴν χεῖρά μου, δοῦναι αὐτὴν τῷ ῾Αβραὰμ καὶ ᾿Ισαὰκ καὶ ᾿Ιακώβ, καὶ δώσω ὑμῖν αὐτὴν ἐν κλήρῳ· ἐγὼ Κύριος.

⁹ἐλάλησε δὲ Μωυσῆς οὕτω τοῖς υἱοῖς ᾿Ισραήλ, καὶ οὐκ εἰσήκουσαν Μωυσῆ ἀπό τῆς ὀλιγοψυχίας καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ἔργων τῶν σκληρῶν.

¹⁰Εἶπε δὲ Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων·

¹¹εἴσελθε, λάλησον Φαραὼ βασιλεῖ Αἰγύπτου, ἵνα ἐξαποστείλῃ τοὺς υἱοὺς ᾿Ισραὴλ ἐκ τῆς γῆς αὐτοῦ.

¹²ἐλάλησε δὲ Μωυσῆς ἔναντι Κυρίου λέγων· ἰδοὺ οἱ υἱοὶ ᾿Ισραὴλ οὐκ εἰσήκουσάν μου, καὶ πῶς εἰσακούσεταί μου Φαραώ; ἐγὼ δὲ ἄλογός εἰμι.

¹³εἶπε δὲ Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν καὶ ᾿Ααρὼν καὶ συνέταξεν αὐτοῖς πρὸς Φαραὼ βασιλέα Αἰγύπτου, ὥστε ἐξαποστεῖλαι τοὺς υἱοὺς ᾿Ισραὴλ ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου.

¹⁴Καὶ οὗτοι ἀρχηγοὶ οἴκων πατριῶν αὐτῶν. υἱοὶ Ῥουβὴν πρωτοτόκου ᾿Ισραήλ· ᾿Ενὼχ καὶ Φαλλούς, ᾿Ασρὼν καὶ Χαρμεί· αὕτη ἡ συγγένεια Ῥουβήν.

¹⁵καὶ υἱοὶ Συμεών· ᾿Ιεμουὴλ καὶ ᾿Ιαμεὶν καὶ ᾿Αὼδ καὶ ᾿Ιαχεὶν καὶ Σαὰρ καὶ Σαοὺλ ὁ ἐκ τῆς Φοινίσσης· αὗται αἱ πατριαὶ τῶν υἱῶν Συμεών.

¹⁶καὶ ταῦτα τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν υἱῶν Λευὶ κατὰ συγγενείας αὐτῶν. Γεδσών, Καὰθ καὶ Μεραρεί· καὶ τὰ ἔτη τῆς ζωῆς Λευὶ ἑκατὸν τριακονταεπτά.

¹⁷καὶ οὗτοι υἱοὶ Γεδσών· Λοβενεὶ καὶ Σεμεεί, οἶκοι πατριᾶς αὐτῶν.

¹⁸καὶ υἱοὶ Καάθ· ᾿Αμβρὰμ καὶ ᾿Ισαάρ, Χεβρὼν καὶ ᾿Οζειήλ· καὶ τὰ ἔτη τῆς ζωῆς Καὰθ ἑκατὸν τριακοντατρία ἔτη.

¹⁹καὶ υἱοὶ Μεραρεί· Μοολεὶ καὶ ῾Ομουσεί. οὗτοι οἱ οἶκοι πατριῶν Λευὶ κατὰ συγγενείας αὐτῶν.

²⁰καὶ ἔλαβεν ᾿Αμβρὰμ τὴν ᾿Ιωχαβὲδ θυγατέρα τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ ἑαυτῷ εἰς γυναῖκα, καὶ ἐγέννησεν αὐτῷ τόν τε ᾿Ααρὼν καὶ τὸν Μωυσῆν καὶ Μαριὰμ τὴν ἀδελφὴν αὐτῶν· τὰ δὲ ἔτη τῆς ζωῆς ᾿Αμβρὰμ ἑκατὸν τριακονταδύο ἔτη.

²¹καὶ υἱοὶ ᾿Ισσαάρ· Κορὲ καὶ Ναφὲκ καὶ Ζεχρεί.

²²καὶ υἱοὶ ᾿Οζειήλ· Μισαὴλ καὶ ᾿Ελισαφὰν καὶ Σεγρεί.

²³ἔλαβε δὲ ᾿Ααρὼν τὴν ᾿Ελισαβὲθ θυγατέρα ᾿Αμειναδὰβ ἀδελφὴν Ναασσὼν αὐτῷ γυναῖκα, καὶ ἔτεκεν αὐτῷ τόν τε Ναδὰβ καὶ ᾿Αβιοὺδ καὶ τὸν ᾿Ελεάζαρ καὶ ᾿Ιθάμαρ.

²⁴υἱοὶ δὲ Κορέ· ᾿Ασεὶρ καὶ ῾Ελκανὰ καὶ ᾿Αβιάσαφ· αὗται αἱ γενέσεις Κορέ.

²⁵καὶ ᾿Ελεάζαρ ὁ τοῦ ᾿Ααρὼν ἔλαβε τῶν θυγατέρων Φουτιὴλ αὐτῷ γυναῖκα, καὶ ἔτεκεν αὐτῷ τὸν Φινεές. αὗται αἱ ἀρχαὶ πατριᾶς Λευιτῶν κατὰ γενέσεις αὐτῶν.

²⁶οὗτος ᾿Ααρὼν καὶ Μωυσῆς, οἷς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς ὁ Θεὸς ἐξαγαγεῖν τοὺς υἱοὺς ᾿Ισραὴλ ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου σὺν δυνάμει αὐτῶν·

²⁷οὗτοί εἰσιν οἱ διαλεγόμενοι πρὸς Φαραὼ βασιλέα Αἰγύπτου καὶ ἐξήγαγον τοὺς υἱοὺς ᾿Ισραὴλ ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου· αὐτὸς ᾿Ααρὼν καὶ Μωυσῆς.

²⁸῟ῌ ἡμέρᾳ ἐλάλησε Κύριος Μωυσῇ ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ,

²⁹καὶ ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων· ἐγὼ Κύριος· λάλησον πρὸς Φαραὼ βασιλέα Αἰγύπτου ὅσα ἐγὼ λέγω πρὸς σέ.

³⁰καὶ εἶπε Μωυσῆς ἐναντίον Κυρίου· ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἰσχνόφωνός εἰμι, καὶ πῶς εἰσακούσεταί μου Φαραώ;

¹And the Lord said to Moses, Now thou shalt see what I will do to Pharao; for he shall send them forth with a mighty hand, and with a high arm shall he cast them out of his land.

²And God spoke to Moses and said to him, I [am] the Lord.

³And I appeared to Abraam and Isaac and Jacob, being their God, but I did not manifest to them my name Lord.

⁴And I established my covenant with them, to give them the land of the Chananites, the land wherein they sojourned, in which also they dwelt as strangers.

⁵And I hearkened to the groaning of the children of Israel (the affliction with which the Egyptians enslave them) and I remembered the covenant with you.

⁶Go, speak to the children of Israel, saying, I [am] the Lord; and I will lead you forth from the tyranny of the Egyptians, and I will deliver you from bondage, and I will ransom you with a high arm, and great judgment.

⁷And I will take you to me a people for myself, and will be your God; and ye shall know that I am the Lord your God, who brought you out from the tyranny of the Egyptians.

⁸And I will bring you into the land concerning which I stretched out my hand to give it to Abraam and Isaac and Jacob, and I will give it you for an inheritance: I [am] the Lord.

⁹And Moses spoke thus to the sons of Israel, and they hearkened not to Moses for faint-heartedness, and for their hard tasks.

¹⁰And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

¹¹Go in, speak to Pharao king of Egypt, that he send forth the children of Israel out of his land.

¹²And Moses spoke before the Lord, saying, Behold, the children of Israel hearkened not to me, and how shall Pharao hearken to me? and I am not eloquent.

¹³And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, and gave them a charge to Pharao king of Egypt, that he should send forth the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt.

¹⁴And these are the heads of the houses of their families: the sons of Ruben the first-born of Israel; Enoch and Phallus, Asron, and Charmi, this is the kindred of Ruben.

¹⁵And the sons of Symeon, Jemuel and Jamin, and Aod, and Jachin and Saar, and Saul the son of a Phoenician woman, these are the families of the sons of Symeon.

¹⁶And these are the names of the sons of Levi according to their kindreds, Gedson, Caath, and Merari; and the years of the life of Levi were a hundred and thirty-seven.

¹⁷And these are the sons of Gedson, Lobeni and Semei, the houses of their family. And the sons of Caath,

¹⁸Ambram and Issaar, Chebron, and Oziel; and the years of the life of Caath were a hundred and thirty-three years.

¹⁹And the sons of Merari, Mooli, and Omusi, these are the houses of the families of Levi, according to their kindreds.

²⁰And Ambram took to wife Jochabed the daughter of his father’s brother, and she bore to him both Aaron and Moses, and Mariam their sister: and the years of the life of Ambram were a hundred and thirty-two years.

²¹And the sons of Issaar, Core, and Naphec, and Zechri.

²²And the sons of Oziel, Misael, and Elisaphan, and Segri.

²³And Aaron took to himself to wife Elisabeth daughter of Aminadab sister of Naasson, and she bore to him both Nadab and Abiud, and Eleazar and Ithamar.

²⁴And the sons of Core, Asir, and Elkana, and Abiasar, these are the generations of Core.

²⁵And Eleazar the son of Aaron took to himself for a wife [one] of the daughters of Phutiel, and she bore to him Phinees. These are the heads of the family of the Levites, according to their generations.

²⁶This is Aaron and Moses, whom God told to bring out the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt with their forces.

²⁷These are they that spoke with Pharao king of Egypt, and Aaron himself and Moses brought out the children of Israel from the land of Egypt,

²⁸in the day in which the Lord spoke to Moses in the land of Egypt;

²⁹then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, I am the Lord: speak to Pharao king of Egypt whatsoever I say to thee.

³⁰And Moses said before the Lord, Behold, I am not able in speech, and how shall Pharao hearken to me?
