1 Mosesanswered, "What if they won’t believe me and will not obey me but say, ‘The Lorddid not appear 4:1 Ex 3:18; 6:30to you’? "
2 The Lordasked him, "What is that in your hand? "
"A staff," he replied.
3 "Throw it on the ground," he said. So Mosesthrew it on the ground, it became a snake, and he ran from it. 4 The Lordtold Moses, "Stretch out your hand and grab it by the tail." So he stretched out his hand and caught it, and it became a staff in his hand. 5 "This will take place," he continued, "so that they will believe that the Lord, the God of their ancestors, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has appeared to you." 4:1–5 Ex 3:6,15; 4:17,20; 19:9
6 In addition the Lordsaid to him, "Put your hand inside your cloak." So he put his hand inside his cloak, and when he took it out, his hand was diseased, resembling snow. 4:6 A reference to whiteness or flakiness of the skin,4:6 Lv 13:3–4; Nm 12:10; 2Kg 5:277 "Put your hand back inside your cloak," he said. So he put his hand back inside his cloak, and when he took it out, it had again become like the rest of his skin. 4:7 Nm 12:13–14; Dt 32:39; 2Kg 5:148 "If they will not believe you and will not respond to the evidence of the first sign, they may believe the evidence of the second sign. 9 And if they don’t believe even these two signs or listen to what you say, take some water from the Nileand pour it on the dry ground. The water you take from the Nilewill become blood on the ground." 4:9 Ex 7:19
10 But Mosesreplied to the Lord, "Please, Lord, I have never been eloquent — either in the past or recently or since you have been speaking to your servant — because my mouth and my tongue are sluggish." 4:10 Lit heavy of mouth and heavy of tongue,4:10 Ex 6:12; Jr 1:6
11 The Lordsaid to him, "Who placed a mouth on humans? Who makes a person mute or deaf, seeing or blind? Is it not I, the Lord? 4:11 Ps 94:912 Now go! I will help you speak 4:12 Lit will be with your mouthand I will teach you what to say." 4:12 Is 50:4; Jr 1:9; Mt 10:19–20; Mk 13:11; Lk 12:11–12; 21:14–15
13 Moses said, "Please, Lord, send someone else." 4:13 Lit send by the hand of whom you will send
14 Then the Lord’s anger burned against Moses, and he said, "Isn’t Aaronthe Levite your brother? I know that he can speak well. And also, he is on his way now to meet you. He will rejoice when he sees you. 15 You will speak with him and tell him what to say. 4:15 Ex 7:1–2; Nm 23:5,12,16I will help both you and him to speak 4:15 Lit will be with your mouth and with his mouthand will teach you both what to do. 16 He will speak to the people for you. He will serve as a mouth for you, and you will serve as God to him. 17 And take this staff in your hand that you will perform the signs with." 4:17 Ex 4:2; 7:15
Moses’s Return to Egypt
18 Then Moseswent back to his father-in-law, Jethro, and said to him, "Please let me return to my relatives in Egyptand see if they are still living."
Jethrosaid to Moses, "Go in peace."
19 Now in Midianthe Lordtold Moses, "Return to Egypt, for all the men who wanted to kill you are dead." 4:19 Ex 2:15,23; Mt 2:2020 So Mosestook his wife and sons, put them on a donkey, and returned to the land of Egypt. And Mosestook God’s staff 4:20 Ex 17:9; Nm 20:8–9in his hand.
21 The Lordinstructed Moses, "When you go back to Egypt, make sure you do before Pharaohall the wonders that I have put within your power. But I will harden his heart 4:21 Orwill make him stubborn,4:21 Ex 7:13; 9:12,35; 14:8; Dt 2:30; Jos 11:20; Is 63:17; Jn 12:40; Rm 9:18so that he won’t let the people go. 22 And you will say to Pharaoh: This is what the Lordsays: Israelis my firstborn son. 4:22 Is 63:16; 64:8; Jr 31:9; Hs 11:1; Rm 9:423 I told you: Let my son go so that he may worship me, but you refused to let him go. Look, I am about to kill your firstborn son! " 4:23 Ex 11:5; 12:29
24 On the trip, at an overnight campsite, it happened that the Lordconfronted him and intended to put him to death. 25 So Zipporahtook a flint, cut off her son’s foreskin, threw it at Moses’s feet, and said, "You are a bridegroom of blood to me! " 4:25 Gn 17:14; Jos 5:2–326 So he let him alone. At that time she said, "You are a bridegroom of blood," referring to the circumcision.
Reunion of Moses and Aaron
27 Now the Lordhad said to Aaron, "Go and meet Mosesin the wilderness." So he went and met him at the mountain of God and kissed him. 4:27 Ex 3:1; 4:1428 Mosestold Aaroneverything the Lordhad sent him to say, and about all the signs he had commanded him to do. 29 Then Mosesand Aaronwent and assembled all the elders of the Israelites. 30 Aaronrepeated everything the Lordhad said to Mosesand performed the signs before the people. 31 The people believed, and when they heard that the Lordhad paid attention 4:31 Ex 2:25; 3:7,18; 4:8–9to them and that he had seen their misery, 4:31 Gn 24:26; 1Ch 29:20they knelt low and worshiped.
