AND God spake unto Moses, and said un∣to [unspec] him, I am Iehovah. And I appeared [unspec] unto Abraham, unto Isaak, and unto Iakob, by (the name of) God Almightie: but by my name Iehovah was I not knowne to them. And also, I established my covenant with [unspec] them, to give unto them the land of Canaan, the land of their sojournings, in the which they sojourned. And also, I have heard the groaning of the sons of Israel, whom the E∣gyptians keepe in servitude; and I have re∣membred my covenant. Therefore say thou unto the sonnes of Israel; I am Iehovah, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will rid you out of their servitude, and I will redeeme you with a stretched out arme, and with great judg∣ments. And I will take you to me for a peo∣ple, and I will be to you a God, and yee shall know that I am Iehovah your God, which bringeth you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians. And I will bring you in unto the land, which I did lift up my hand to give it to Abraham, to Isaak, and to Iakob: and I will give it to you for an heritage, I am Ie∣hovah.

And Iehovah spake unto Moses, say∣ing; Goe in, speake unto Pharaoh King of Egypt, that he send away the sonnes of Is∣rael, out of his land. And Moses spake before Iehovah, saying, Behold, the sonnes of Is∣rael have not hearkened unto mee; and how shall Pharaoh heare mee, and I am of un∣circumcised lips? And Iehovah spake un∣to Moses and unto Aaron, and gave them a charge unto the sonnes of Israel, and unto Pharaoh the king of Egypt, to bring forth the sonnes of Israel out of the land of Egypt. These be the heads of their fathers houses: the sonnes of Ruben the first-borne of Is∣rael; Enoch and Phallu, Hezron and Carmi; these be the families of Ruben. And the sonnes of Simeon; Iemuel, and Ia∣min,
