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,“ 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,“ 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?

But Moses replied to the LORD,“ If the Israelites did not listen to me, then how will Pharaoh listen to me, since I speak with difficulty?”

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?”

Moses spoke to the Lord. He said,“ Lord, I’ve never been a good speaker. And I haven’t gotten any better since you spoke to me. I don’t speak very well at all.”

“ You are my Lord and King,” I said.“ I don’t know how to speak. I’m too young.”

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

Who can I speak to? Who can I warn? Who will even listen to me? Their ears are closed so they can’t hear. The Lord’ s message displeases them. They don’t take any delight in it.

“ You stubborn people! You won’t obey! You won’t listen! You are just like your people of long ago! You always oppose the Holy Spirit!

What you did made me become your enemy. I let your enemies take you into their land. But suppose you stop being stubborn. You stop being proud. And you pay for your sin.

Moses reported these things to the Israelites. But they didn’t listen to him. That’s because they had lost all hope and had to work very hard.

Moses and Aaron gathered all the elders of Israel together.Aaron told them everything the Lord had said to Moses. He also performed the signs in the sight of the people.And they believed. They heard that the Lord was concerned about them. He had seen their suffering. So they bowed down and worshiped him.

Moses said to God,“ Suppose I go to the people of Israel. Suppose I say to them,‘ The God of your fathers has sent me to you.’ And suppose they ask me,‘ What is his name?’ Then what should I tell them?”

The Israelite overseers realized they were in trouble. They knew it when they were told,“ Don’t reduce the number of bricks you are required to make each day.”When they left Pharaoh, they found Moses and Aaron waiting to meet them.They said to Moses and Aaron,“ We want the Lord to look at what you have done! We want him to judge you for it! We are like a very bad smell to Pharaoh and his officials. You have given them an excuse to kill us with their swords.”

“ How terrible it is for me!” I cried out.“ I’m about to be destroyed! My mouth speaks sinful words. And I live among people who speak sinful words. Now I have seen the King with my own eyes. He is the Lord who rules over all.”

The Lord your God will keep you from being stubborn. He’ll do the same thing for your children and their children. Then you will love him with all your heart and with all your soul. And you will live.

That includes the people of Egypt, Judah, Edom, Ammon and Moab. It also includes all those who live in the desert in places far away. None of the people in these nations is really circumcised. And not even the people of Israel are circumcised in their hearts.”
