And God
remembered his promise with Abraham, Isaac and Iacob. And God
looked upon the children of Israel and knew them.
Chapter .iij.
Moses kept the sheep of Iethro his father-in-law priest of Madian,
and he drove the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to
the mountain of God, Horeb. And the angel of the LORD appeared
unto him in a flame of fire out of a bush. And he perceived that
the bush burned with fire, and consumed not. Then Moses said: I
will go hence and see this great sight, how it cometh that the
bush burneth not. And when the LORD saw that he came for to see,
he called unto him out of the bush and said: Moses Moses; And he
answered: here am I. And he said: come not hither, but put thy
shoes off thy feet: for the place whereon thou stondest is holy
ground. And he said: I am the God of thy father, the God of
Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Iacob. And Moses hid his
face, for he was afraid to look upon God. Then the LORD said: I
have surely seen the trouble of my people which are in Egypt, and
have heard their cry, which they have of their taskmasters. For I
know their sorrow, and am come down to deliver them out of the
hands of the Egyptians, and to bring them out of that land unto a
good land and a large, and unto a land that floweth with milk and
honey: even unto the place of the Cananites, Hethites, Amorites,
Pherezites, Hevites, and of the Iebusites.
