For they may say, ‘The LORD has not appeared to you.’” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-2.htm"><b>2</b></a></span>And the LORD said to him, “What is that in your hand?” And he said, “A staff.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-3.htm"><b>3</b></a></span>Then He said, “Throw it on the ground.” So he threw it on the ground, and it became a serpent; and Moses fled from it. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-4.htm"><b>4</b></a></span>But the LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand and grasp <i>it</i> by its tail”—so he stretched out his hand and caught it, and it became a staff in his hand— <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-5.htm"><b>5</b></a></span>“that they may believe that the LORD, the God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has appeared to you.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-6.htm"><b>6</b></a></span>And the LORD furthermore said to him, “Now put your hand into your bosom.” So he put his hand into his bosom, and when he took it out, behold, his hand was leprous like snow. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-7.htm"><b>7</b></a></span>Then He said, “Put your hand into your bosom again.” So he put his hand into his bosom again; and when he took it out of his bosom, behold, it was restored like <i>the rest of</i> his flesh. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-8.htm"><b>8</b></a></span>“And it shall come about that if they will not believe you or heed the witness of the first sign, they may believe the witness of the last sign. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-9.htm"><b>9</b></a></span>“But it shall be that if they will not believe even these two signs or heed what you say, then you shall take some water from the Nile and pour it on the dry ground; and the water which you take from the Nile will become blood on the dry ground.” <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-10.htm"><b>10</b></a></span>Then Moses said to the LORD, “Please, Lord, I have never been eloquent, neither recently nor in time past, nor since Thou hast spoken to Thy servant; for I am slow of speech and slow of tongue.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-11.htm"><b>11</b></a></span>And the LORD said to him, “Who has made man’s mouth? Or who makes <i>him</i> dumb or deaf, or seeing or blind? Is it not I, the LORD? <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-12.htm"><b>12</b></a></span>“Now then go, and I, even I, will be with your mouth, and teach you what you are to say.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-13.htm"><b>13</b></a></span>But he said, “Please, Lord, now send <i>the message</i> by whomever Thou wilt.” <p><b><i>Aaron to Be Moses’ Mouthpiece</i></b><p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-14.htm"><b>14</b></a></span>Then the anger of the LORD burned against Moses, and He said, “Is there not your brother Aaron the Levite? I know that he speaks fluently. And moreover, behold, he is coming out to meet you; when he sees you, he will be glad in his heart. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-15.htm"><b>15</b></a></span>“And you are to speak to him and put the words in his mouth; and I, even I, will be with your mouth and his mouth, and I will teach you what you are to do. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-16.htm"><b>16</b></a></span>“Moreover, he shall speak for you to the people; and it shall come about that he shall be as a mouth for you, and you shall be as God to him. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-17.htm"><b>17</b></a></span>“And you shall take in your hand this staff, with which you shall perform the signs.” <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-18.htm"><b>18</b></a></span>Then Moses departed and returned to Jethro his father-in-law, and said to him, “Please, let me go, that I may return to my brethren who are in Egypt, and see if they are still alive.” And Jethro said to Moses, “Go in peace.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-19.htm"><b>19</b></a></span>Now the LORD said to Moses in Midian, “Go back to Egypt, for all the men who were seeking your life are dead.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-20.htm"><b>20</b></a></span>So Moses took his wife and his sons and mounted them on a donkey, and he returned to the land of Egypt. Moses also took the staff of God in his hand. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-21.htm"><b>21</b></a></span>And the LORD said to Moses, “When you go back to Egypt see that you perform before Pharaoh all the wonders which I have put in your power; but I will harden his heart so that he will not let the people go. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-22.htm"><b>22</b></a></span>“Then you shall say to Pharaoh, ‘Thus says the LORD, “Israel is My son, My first-born. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-23.htm"><b>23</b></a></span>“So I said to you, ‘Let My son go, that he may serve Me’; but you have refused to let him go. Behold, I will kill your son, your first-born.”’” <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-24.htm"><b>24</b></a></span>Now it came about at the lodging place on the way that the LORD met him and sought to put him to death. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-25.htm"><b>25</b></a></span>Then Zipporah took a flint and cut off her son’s foreskin and threw <i>it</i> at Moses’ feet, and she said, “You are indeed a bridegroom of blood to me.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-26.htm"><b>26</b></a></span>So He let him alone. At that time she said, “<i>You are</i> a bridegroom of blood”—because of the circumcision. <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-27.htm"><b>27</b></a></span>Now the LORD said to Aaron, “Go to meet Moses in the wilderness.” So he went and met him at the mountain of God, and he kissed him. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-28.htm"><b>28</b></a></span>And Moses told Aaron all the words of the LORD with which He had sent him, and all the signs that He had commanded him <i>to do.</i> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-29.htm"><b>29</b></a></span>Then Moses and Aaron went and assembled all the elders of the sons of Israel; <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-30.htm"><b>30</b></a></span>and Aaron spoke all the words which the LORD had spoken to Moses. He then performed the signs in the sight of the people. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/exodus/4-31.htm"><b>31</b></a></span>So the people believed; and when they heard that the LORD was concerned about the sons of Israel and that He had seen their affliction, then they bowed low and worshiped.</div><br /><div id="botbox"><div class="padbot"><div align="center">New American Standard Bible Copyright © 1960, 1962, 1963, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1977, 1995 by The Lockman Foundation, La Habra, Calif.
