1耶和华对摩西的应许
2God spoke to Moses, and said to him, “I am Yahweh;
2 神告诉摩西说：“我是耶和华。
3and I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, as God Almighty; but by my name Yahweh I was not known to them.
3我曾向亚伯拉罕、以撒、雅各显现为全能的 神，至于我的名字‘耶和华’，他们是不认识的。
4I have also established my covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their travels, in which they lived as aliens.
4我不但与他们确立了我的约，要把迦南地，就是他们作客寄居之地赐给他们；
5Moreover I have heard the groaning of the children of Israel, whom the Egyptians keep in bondage, and I have remembered my covenant.
5而且我也听见了以色列人因埃及人所加的奴役而发的哀声，就记念我的约。
6Therefore tell the children of Israel, ‘I am Yahweh, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will rid you out of their bondage, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm, and with great judgments:
6所以，你要对以色列人说：‘我是耶和华，我要把你们从埃及人的重担底下救出来；我要拯救你们脱离他们的奴役；我要用伸出来的膀臂，并借着严厉的刑罚来救赎你们。
7and I will take you to me for a people, and I will be to you a God; and you shall know that I am Yahweh your God, who brings you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.
7我要以你们作我的人民，我也要作你们的 神；你们要知道我是耶和华你们的 神，是把你们从埃及人的重担底下救出来的。
8I will bring you into the land which I swore to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it to you for a heritage: I am Yahweh.’”
8我举手起誓要给亚伯拉罕、以撒、雅各的地，我必领你们进去；我也必把那地赐给你们作产业；我是耶和华。’”
9Moses spoke so to the children of Israel, but they didn’t listen to Moses for anguish of spirit, and for cruel bondage.
9摩西这样告诉以色列人，只是他们因为心里愁烦和苦工的缘故，就不肯听摩西的话。
