28 On the day that Yahweh spoke to Mosheh in Egypt, 29 he said, “I am Yahweh. Tell the Egyptian king Far’oh everything that I tell you.”

30 “Please listen to me,” Mosheh responded. “I’m not a good speaker, so why should Far’oh listen to me?”

7 Yahweh answered, “Listen, I’ve made you like God to Far’oh, and your brother Aharon will be your prophet. 2 You’ll quietly say everything that I tell you to and then your brother Aharon will relay it to Far’oh and tell him that he must let the Israelis leave his country. 3 But I’ll make Far’oh stubborn and so I’ll increase the signs and miracles that I’ll do in Egypt.[ref] 4 Far’oh won’t listen to you so I’ll pressure Egypt, and I’ll use severe judgements to ensure that I bring my armies—my people the Israelis—out Egypt. 5 The Egyptians will know that I am Yahweh when I demonstrate my power to Egypt by taking the Israelis out from the middle of them.” 6 So Mosheh and Aharon did everything that Yahweh told them to do. 7 (Mosheh was eighty and Aharon was eighty-three when they were interacting with Far’oh.)
