Exodus 6

1 And the LORD said unto Moses, Now shalt thou see what I will do to Pharaoh: for by a strong hand shall he let them go, and by a strong hand shall he drive them out of his land.

2 And God spake unto Moses, and said unto him, I am JEHOVAH:

Sithaw mah Mosi khaeah, Kai loe Angraeng ah ka oh;

3 and I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, as God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH I was not known to them.

Abraham, Issak hoi Jakob khaeah, Lensawk Sithaw ah kang phong pae; toe ka hmin JEHOVAH hoiah nihcae khaeah kang phong pae ai.

4 And I have also established my covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their sojournings, wherein they sojourned.

Nihcae angvin ah oh o haih, nihcae khaeah Kanaan prae to paek hanah, nihcae hoi lokmaihaih ka sak boeh.

5 And moreover I have heard the groaning of the children of Israel, whom the Egyptians keep in bondage; and I have remembered my covenant.

To pacoengah, Izip kaminawk mah tamna ah suek o ih, Israel kaminawk hanghaih lok to ka thaih naah, ka sak ih lokmaihaih to ka poek.

6 Wherefore say unto the children of Israel, I am Jehovah, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will rid you out of their bondage, and I will redeem you with a stretched out arm, and with great judgments:

To pongah Israel kaminawk khaeah, Kai loe ANGRAENG ah ka oh; Izip kaminawk ih hmuenzit phawhhaih thung hoiah nangcae to kang loih o sak han; nihcae ih tamna ah ohhaih thung hoiah kang loih o sak moe, ban ka payangh pacoengah, thacak lokcaekhaih hoiah nangcae to kang loih o sak han.

7 and I will take you to me for a people, and I will be to you a God: and ye shall know that I am Jehovah your God, which bringeth you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians.

Kami maeto ah kaimah khaeah kang lak o han, Kai loe nangcae ih Sithaw ah ka oh han; to naah Kai loe nangcae ih Angraeng Sithaw, Izip kaminawk hmuenzit phawhhaih thung hoi zaehoikung ah ka oh, tiah na panoek o tih.

8 And I will bring you in unto the land concerning which I lifted up my hand to give it to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it you for an heritage: I am Jehovah.

Kai mah Abraham, Issak hoi Jakob khaeah ban ka payangh moe, paek han lokkam ih prae thungah, kang caeh o sak han; to prae to nangcae hanah qawk ah kang paek han; Kai loe Angraeng ah ka oh, tiah thui paeh, tiah a naa.

9 And Moses spake so unto the children of Israel: but they hearkened not unto Moses for anguish of spirit, and for cruel bondage.

Hae lok hae Mosi mah Israel kaminawk khaeah thuih pae; toe palungboeng o, tamna ah ohhaih nung parai pongah tahngai pae o ai.

10 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

To pacoengah Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah,

11 Go in, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, that he let the children of Israel go out of his land.

a prae thung hoi Israel kaminawk tacawtsak hanah, Faro khaeah caeh ah loe, thui paeh, tiah a naa.

12 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?

Toe Mosi mah Angraeng khaeah, Khenah, Israel kaminawk mah mataeng doeh ka lok hae tahngai o ai nahaeloe, lok tongaah kai ih lok cae loe kawbang maw Faro mah na tahngai pae tih? tiah a naa.

13 And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, and gave them a charge unto the children of Israel, and unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt.

29 that the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, I am the LORD: speak thou unto Pharaoh king of Egypt all that I speak unto thee.
