1 The Lord answered Moses: See! I have made you a god to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother will be your prophet.
2 You will speak all that I command you. In turn, your brother Aaron will tell Pharaoh to let the Israelites go out of his land.
3 Yet I will make Pharaoh so headstrong that, despite the many signs and wonders that I work in the land of Egypt,
4 Pharaoh will not listen to you. Therefore I will lay my hand on Egypt and with mighty acts of judgment I will bring my armies, my people the Israelites, out of the land of Egypt.
5 All Egyptians will know that I am the Lord, when I stretch out my hand against Egypt and bring the Israelites out of their midst.
6 This, then, is what Moses and Aaron did. They did exactly as the Lord had commanded them.
7 Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron eighty-three, when they spoke to Pharaoh.
