So when the Lord saw that he turned aside to look, God called (A)to him from the midst of the bush and said, “Moses, Moses!”

And he said, “Here I am.”

Then He said, “Do not draw near this place. (B)Take your sandals off your feet, for the place where you stand is holy ground.” Moreover He said, (C)“I am the God of your father—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” And Moses hid his face, for (D)he was afraid to look upon God.

And the Lord said: (E)“I have surely seen the oppression of My people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry (F)because of their taskmasters, (G)for I know their [a]sorrows. So (H)I have come down to (I)deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up from that land (J)to a good and large land, to a land (K)flowing with milk and honey, to the place of (L)the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites. Now therefore, behold, (M)the cry of the children of Israel has come to Me, and I have also seen the (N)oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them. 10 (O)Come now, therefore, and I will send you to Pharaoh that you may bring My people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt.”

She said, “I am fleeing from the presence of my mistress Sarai.”

The Angel of the Lord said to her, “Return to your mistress, and (D)submit yourself under her hand.” 10 Then the Angel of the Lord said to her, (E)“I will multiply your descendants exceedingly, so that they shall not be counted for multitude.” 11 And the Angel of the Lord said to her:
