¹⁹ Then He said, “I will make all My ^(A)goodness pass before you, and I will proclaim the name of the Lord before you. ^(B)I will be gracious to whom I will be ^(C)gracious, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.”

¹⁵ For He says to Moses, ^(A)“I will have mercy on whomever I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whomever I will have compassion.” ¹⁶ So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy. ¹⁷ For ^(B)the Scripture says to the Pharaoh, ^(C)“For this very purpose I have raised you up, that I may show My power in you, and that My name may be declared in all the earth.” ¹⁸ Therefore He has mercy on whom He wills, and whom He wills He ^(D)hardens.

⁶ to the praise of the glory of His grace, ^(A)by which He ^[a]made us accepted in ^(B)the Beloved.

^7 (C)In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to ^(D)the riches of His grace ⁸ which He made to abound toward us in all wisdom and ^[b]prudence,

¹⁴ Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: ^(A)Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear ^(B)a Son, and shall call His name ^(C)Immanuel.^[a]

⁵ Now the Lord descended in the ^(A)cloud and stood with him there, and ^(B)proclaimed the name of the Lord. ⁶ And the Lord passed before him and proclaimed, “The Lord, the Lord ^(C)God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in ^(D)goodness and ^(E)truth, ^7 (F)keeping mercy for thousands, ^(G)forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, ^(H)by no means clearing the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children and the children’s children to the third and the fourth generation.”

¹³ Then Moses said to God, “Indeed, when I come to the children of Israel and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they say to me, ‘What is His name?’ what shall I say to them?”

¹⁴ And God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.” And He said, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, ^(A)‘I AM has sent me to you.’ ” ¹⁵ Moreover God said to Moses, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel: ‘The Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you. This is ^(B)My name forever, and this is My memorial to all generations.’
