But Moses said to the Lord,“ If the Israelites will not listen to me, why would Pharaoh listen to me, since I speak with faltering lips?”

But Moses said to the Lord,“ The people won’t listen to me. So why would Pharaoh listen to me? After all, I don’t speak very well.”

But Moses said to the Lord,“ Behold, the people of Israel have not listened to me. How then shall Pharaoh listen to me, for I am of uncircumcised lips?”

“ But Lord!” Moses objected.“ My own people won’t listen to me anymore. How can I expect Pharaoh to listen? I’m such a clumsy speaker!”

But Moses said in the LORD’s presence,“ If the Israelites will not listen to me, then how will Pharaoh listen to me, since I am such a poor speaker?”

But Moses spoke before the Lord, saying,“ Behold, the sons of Israel have not listened to me; how then will Pharaoh listen to me, as I am unskilled in speech?”

And Moses spoke before the Lord, saying,“ The children of Israel have not heeded me. How then shall Pharaoh heed me, for I am of uncircumcised lips?”

And Moses spake before Jehovah, saying, Behold, the children of Israel have not hearkened unto me; how then shall Pharaoh hear me, who am of uncircumcised lips?

But Moses said in the Lord’s presence:“ If the Israelites will not listen to me, then how will Pharaoh listen to me, since I am such a poor speaker?”

And Moses spake before the LORD, saying, Behold, the children of Israel have not hearkened unto me; how then shall Pharaoh hear me, who[ am] of uncircumcised lips?

Moses spoke before Yahweh, saying,“ Behold, the children of Israel haven’t listened to me. How then shall Pharaoh listen to me, when I have uncircumcised lips?”

Then Moses said to the LORD,“ O my Lord, I am not an eloquent man, neither in the past nor since you have spoken to your servant, for I am slow of speech and slow of tongue.”

I answered,“ Oh, Lord GOD, I really do not know how to speak well enough for that, for I am too young.”

But Moses said before the LORD,“ Since I speak with difficulty, why should Pharaoh listen to me?”

I answered,“ Who would listen if I spoke to them and warned them? Their ears are so closed that they cannot hear! Indeed, what the LORD says is offensive to them. They do not like it at all.

“ You stubborn people, with uncircumcised hearts and ears! You are always resisting the Holy Spirit, like your ancestors did!

( and I myself will walk in hostility against them and bring them into the land of their enemies), and then their uncircumcised hearts become humbled and they make up for their iniquity,

Moses told this to the Israelites, but they did not listen to him because of their discouragement and hard labor.

Then Moses and Aaron went and brought together all the Israelite elders.Aaron spoke all the words that the LORD had spoken to Moses and did the signs in the sight of the people,and the people believed. When they heard that the LORD had attended to the Israelites and that he had seen their affliction, they bowed down close to the ground.

Moses said to God,“ If I go to the Israelites and tell them,‘ The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me,‘ What is his name?’– what should I say to them?”

The Israelite foremen saw that they were in trouble when they were told,“ You must not reduce the daily quota of your bricks.”When they went out from Pharaoh, they encountered Moses and Aaron standing there to meet them,and they said to them,“ May the LORD look on you and judge, because you have made us stink in the opinion of Pharaoh and his servants, so that you have given them an excuse to kill us!”

I said,“ Too bad for me! I am destroyed, for my lips are contaminated by sin, and I live among people whose lips are contaminated by sin. My eyes have seen the king, the LORD who commands armies.”

The LORD your God will also cleanse your heart and the hearts of your descendants so that you may love him with all your mind and being and so that you may live.

That is, I will punish the Egyptians, the Judeans, the Edomites, the Ammonites, the Moabites, and all the desert people who cut their hair short at the temples. I will do so because none of the people of those nations are really circumcised in the Lord’ s sight. Moreover, none of the people of Israel are circumcised when it comes to their hearts.”
