And I have said it, that I
will bring you out of the tribulation of Egypt unto the land of
the Cananites, Hethites, Amorites, Pherezites, Hevites and
Iebusites: even a land that floweth with milk and honey. If it
come to pass that they hear thy voice, then go, both thou and the
elders of Israel unto the king of Egypt, and say unto him: The
LORD God of the Hebrews hath met with us: Let us go therefore
three days' journey into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice
unto the LORD our God. Notwithstanding I am sure that the king of
Egypt will not let you go, except it be with a mighty hand: yea
and I will therefore stretch out mine hand, and smite Egypt with
all my wonders which I will do therein. And after that he will let
you go. And I will get this people favour in the sight of the
Egyptians: so that when ye go, ye shall not go empty: but every
wife shall borrow of her neighbouress and of her that sojourneth
in her house, jewels of silver and of gold and raiment. And ye
shall put them on your sons and daughters, and shall rob the
Egyptians.
Chapter .iiij.
Moses answered and said: See, they will not believe me nor hearken
unto my voice: but will say, the LORD hath not appeared unto thee.
Then the LORD said unto him: what is that in thine hand? and he
said, a rod.
