Then the Lord [03068] said [0559] unto Moses [04872], Go [0935] in unto Pharaoh [06547], and tell [01696] him, Thus saith [0559] the Lord [03068] God [0430] of the Hebrews [05680], Let my people [05971] go [07971], that they may serve [05647] me.

Our cattle [04735] also shall go [03212] with us; there shall not an hoof [06541] be left behind [07604]; for thereof must we take [03947] to serve [05647] the Lord [03068] our God [0430]; and we know [03045] not with what we must serve [05647] the Lord [03068], until we come [0935] thither.

And it was told [05046] the king [04428] of Egypt [04714] that the people [05971] fled [01272]: and the heart [03824] of Pharaoh [06547] and of his servants [05650] was turned [02015] against the people [05971], and they said [0559], Why have we done [06213] this, that we have let Israel [03478] go [07971] from serving [05647] us?
Is not this the word [01697] that we did tell [01696] thee in Egypt [04714], saying [0559], Let us alone [02308], that we may serve [05647] the Egyptians [04714]? For it had been better [02896] for us to serve [05647] the Egyptians [04714], than that we should die [04191] in the wilderness [04057].
Thou shalt not bow down [07812] thyself to them, nor serve [05647] them: for I the Lord [03068] thy God [0430] am a jealous [07067] God [0410], visiting [06485] the iniquity [05771] of the fathers [01] upon the children [01121] unto the third [08029] and fourth [07256] generation of them that hate [08130] me;
Six [08337] days [03117] shalt thou labour [05647], and do [06213] all thy work [04399]:
If thou buy [07069] an Hebrew [05680] servant [05650], six [08337] years [08141] he shall serve [05647]: and in the seventh [07637] he shall go out [03318] free [02670] for nothing [02600].
Then his master [0113] shall bring [05066] him unto the judges [0430]; he shall also bring [05066] him to the door [01817], or unto the door post [04201]; and his master [0113] shall bore [07527] his ear [0241] through with an aul [04836]; and he shall serve [05647] him for ever [05769].
Thou shalt not bow down [07812] to their gods [0430], nor serve [05647] them, nor do [06213] after their works [04639]: but thou shalt utterly [02040] overthrow [02040] them, and quite [07665] break down [07665] their images [04676].
And ye shall serve [05647] the Lord [03068] your God [0430], and he shall bless [01288] thy bread [03899], and thy water [04325]; and I will take [05493] sickness [04245] away [05493] from the midst [07130] of thee.
They shall not dwell [03427] in thy land [0776], lest they make thee sin [02398] against me: for if thou serve [05647] their gods [0430], it will surely be a snare [04170] unto thee.
Six [08337] days [03117] thou shalt work [05647], but on the seventh [07637] day [03117] thou shalt rest [07673]: in earing time [02758] and in harvest [07105] thou shalt rest [07673].
