1 The Lord said unto Moses, See, I have constituted thee as god unto Pharaoh; and Aaron, thy brother, shall be thy prophet.
2 Thou shalt speak all that I shall command thee; and Aaron, thy brother, shall speak unto Pharaoh that he send the sons of Israel out of his land.
3 And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.
4 And Pharaoh shall not hearken unto you, but I shall lay my hand upon Egypt and bring forth my hosts, and my people, the sons of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgments.
5 And the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord when I stretch forth my hand upon Egypt and bring out the sons of Israel from among them.
6 And Moses and Aaron did as the Lord commanded them, so did they.
7 And Moses was eighty years old and Aaron eighty-three years old when they spoke unto Pharaoh.
