Bible Reading for January 28
Exodus 1
[1] Now these are the names of the children of Israel, which came into Egypt;
every man and his household came with Jacob. [2] Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and
Judah, [3] Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin, [4] Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and
Asher. [5] And all the souls that came out of the loins of Jacob were seventy
souls: for Joseph was in Egypt already. [6] And Joseph died, and all his
brethren, and all that generation. [7] And the children of Israel were
fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceeding mighty;
and the land was filled with them. [8] Now there arose up a new king over
Egypt, which knew not Joseph. [9] And he said unto his people, Behold, the
people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we: [10] Come on,
let us deal wisely with them; lest they multiply, and it come to pass, that,
when there falleth out any war, they join also unto our enemies, and fight
against us, and so get them up out of the land. [11] Therefore they did set
over them taskmasters to afflict them with their burdens. And they built for
Pharaoh treasure cities, Pithom and Raamses. [12] But the more they afflicted
them, the more they multiplied and grew. And they were grieved because of the
children of Israel. [13] And the Egyptians made the children of Israel to serve
with rigour: [14] And they made their lives bitter with hard bondage, in
morter, and in brick, and in all manner of service in the field: all their
service, wherein they made them serve, was with rigour. [15] And the king of
Egypt spake to the Hebrew midwives, of which the name of the one was Shiphrah,
and the name of the other Puah: [16] And he said, When ye do the office of a
midwife to the Hebrew women, and see them upon the stools; if it be a son, then
ye shall kill him: but if it be a daughter, then she shall live. [17] But the
midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved
the men children alive. [18] And the king of Egypt called for the midwives, and
said unto them, Why have ye done this thing, and have saved the men children
alive? [19] And the midwives said unto Pharaoh, Because the Hebrew women are
not as the Egyptian women; for they are lively, and are delivered ere the
midwives come in unto them.
[20] Therefore God dealt well with the midwives: and the people multiplied, and
waxed very mighty.
[21] And it came to pass, because the midwives feared God, that he made them
houses.
[22] And Pharaoh charged all his people, saying, Every son that is born ye
shall cast into the river, and every daughter ye shall save alive. Exodus 2
[1] And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of
Levi.
[2] And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was a
goodly child, she hid him three months. [3] And when she could not longer hide
him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with
pitch, and put the child therein; and she laid it in the flags by the river's
brink. [4] And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him. [5]
And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her
maidens walked along by the river's side; and when she saw the ark among the
flags, she sent her maid to fetch it. [6] And when she had opened it, she saw
the child: and, behold, the babe wept. And she had compassion on him, and said,
This is one of the Hebrews' children.
[7] Then said his sister to Pharaoh's daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a
nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee? [8] And
Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child's
mother.
[9] And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her, Take this child away, and nurse it
for me, and I will give thee thy wages. And the woman took the child, and
nursed it.
[10] And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh's daughter, and he
became her son. And she called his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him
out of the water.
[11] And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that he went out
unto his brethren, and looked on their burdens: and he spied an Egyptian
smiting an Hebrew, one of his brethren. [12] And he looked this way and that
way, and when he saw that there was no man, he slew the Egyptian, and hid him
in the sand. [13] And when he went out the second day, behold, two men of the
Hebrews strove together: and he said to him that did the wrong, Wherefore
smitest thou thy fellow?
[14] And he said, Who made thee a prince and a judge over us? intendest thou to
kill me, as thou killedst the Egyptian? And Moses feared, and said, Surely this
thing is known.
[15] Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled
from the face of Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land of Midian: and he sat down by a
well.
[16] Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters: and they came and drew
water, and filled the troughs to water their father's flock. [17] And the
shepherds came and drove them away: but Moses stood up and helped them, and
watered their flock. [18] And when they came to Reuel their father, he said,
How is it that ye are come so soon to day?
[19] And they said, An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds,
and also drew water enough for us, and watered the flock. [20] And he said unto
his daughters, And where is he? why is it that ye have left the man? call him,
that he may eat bread. [21] And Moses was content to dwell with the man: and he
gave Moses Zipporah his daughter.
[22] And she bare him a son, and he called his name Gershom: for he said, I
have been a stranger in a strange land. [23] And it came to pass in process of
time, that the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason
of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by reason of the
bondage. [24] And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant
with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob. [25] And God looked upon the children
of Israel, and God had respect unto them.
Exodus 3
[1] Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father in law, the priest of Midian:
and he led the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of
God, even to Horeb.
[2] And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the
midst of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the
bush was not consumed.
[3] And Moses said, I will now turn aside, and see this great sight, why the
bush is not burnt.
[4] And when the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called unto him out
of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I.
[5] And he said, Draw not nigh hither: put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for
the place whereon thou standest is holy ground. [6] Moreover he said, I am the
God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
And Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look upon God.
[7] And the LORD said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are
in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know
their sorrows;
[8] And I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to
bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large, unto a land
flowing with milk and honey; unto the place of the Canaanites, and the
Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the
Jebusites.
[9] Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children of Israel is come unto me:
and I have also seen the oppression wherewith the Egyptians oppress them.
[10] Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest
bring forth my people the children of Israel out of Egypt. [11] And Moses said
unto God, Who am I, that I should go unto Pharaoh, and that I should bring
forth the children of Israel out of Egypt? [12] And he said, Certainly I will
be with thee; and this shall be a token unto thee, that I have sent thee: When
thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt, ye shall serve God upon this
mountain. [13] And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children
of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto
you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them?
[14] And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say
unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. [15] And God said
moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, The LORD
God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of
Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial
unto all generations. [16] Go, and gather the elders of Israel together, and
say unto them, The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and
of Jacob, appeared unto me, saying, I have surely visited you, and seen that
which is done to you in Egypt:
[17] And I have said, I will bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt unto
the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the
Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, unto a land flowing with milk
and honey.
[18] And they shall hearken to thy voice: and thou shalt come, thou and the
elders of Israel, unto the king of Egypt, and ye shall say unto him, The LORD
God of the Hebrews hath met with us: and now let us go, we beseech thee, three
days' journey into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.
[19] And I am sure that the king of Egypt will not let you go, no, not by a
mighty hand.
[20] And I will stretch out my hand, and smite Egypt with all my wonders which
I will do in the midst thereof: and after that he will let you go. [21] And I
will give this people favour in the sight of the Egyptians: and it shall come
to pass, that, when ye go, ye shall not go empty: [22] But every woman shall
borrow of her neighbour, and of her that sojourneth in her house, jewels of
silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment: and ye shall put them upon your sons,
and upon your daughters; and ye shall spoil the Egyptians.
Exodus 4
[1] And Moses answered and said, But, behold, they will not believe me, nor
hearken unto my voice: for they will say, The LORD hath not appeared unto thee.
[2] And the LORD said unto him, What is that in thine hand? And he said, A rod.
[3] And he said, Cast it on the ground. And he cast it on the ground, and it
became a serpent; and Moses fled from before it. [4] And the LORD said unto
Moses, Put forth thine hand, and take it by the tail. And he put forth his
hand, and caught it, and it became a rod in his hand:
[5] That they may believe that the LORD God of their fathers, the God of
Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath appeared unto thee. [6]
And the LORD said furthermore unto him, Put now thine hand into thy bosom. And
he put his hand into his bosom: and when he took it out, behold, his hand was
leprous as snow.
[7] And he said, Put thine hand into thy bosom again. And he put his hand into
his bosom again; and plucked it out of his bosom, and, behold, it was turned
again as his other flesh.
[8] And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe thee, neither hearken
to the voice of the first sign, that they will believe the voice of the latter
sign.
[9] And it shall come to pass, if they will not believe also these two signs,
neither hearken unto thy voice, that thou shalt take of the water of the river,
and pour it upon the dry land: and the water which thou takest out of the river
shall become blood upon the dry land. [10] And Moses said unto the LORD, O my
Lord, I am not eloquent, neither heretofore, nor since thou hast spoken unto
thy servant: but I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue.
[11] And the LORD said unto him, Who hath made man's mouth? or who maketh the
dumb, or deaf, or the seeing, or the blind? have not I the LORD? [12] Now
therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth, and teach thee what thou shalt say.
[13] And he said, O my Lord, send, I pray thee, by the hand of him whom thou
wilt send.
[14] And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Moses, and he said, Is not
Aaron the Levite thy brother? I know that he can speak well. And also, behold,
he cometh forth to meet thee: and when he seeth thee, he will be glad in his
heart.
[15] And thou shalt speak unto him, and put words in his mouth: and I will be
with thy mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you what ye shall do. [16]
And he shall be thy spokesman unto the people: and he shall be, even he shall
be to thee instead of a mouth, and thou shalt be to him instead of God.
[17] And thou shalt take this rod in thine hand, wherewith thou shalt do signs.
[18] And Moses went and returned to Jethro his father in law, and said unto
him, Let me go, I pray thee, and return unto my brethren which are in Egypt,
and see whether they be yet alive. And Jethro said to Moses, Go in peace. [19]
And the LORD said unto Moses in Midian, Go, return into Egypt: for all the men
are dead which sought thy life. [20] And Moses took his wife and his sons, and
set them upon an ass, and he returned to the land of Egypt: and Moses took the
rod of God in his hand. [21] And the LORD said unto Moses, When thou goest to
return into Egypt, see that thou do all those wonders before Pharaoh, which I
have put in thine hand: but I will harden his heart, that he shall not let the
people go. [22] And thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, Thus saith the LORD, Israel is
my son, even my firstborn:
[23] And I say unto thee, Let my son go, that he may serve me: and if thou
refuse to let him go, behold, I will slay thy son, even thy firstborn. [24] And
it came to pass by the way in the inn, that the LORD met him, and sought to
kill him.
[25] Then Zipporah took a sharp stone, and cut off the foreskin of her son, and
cast it at his feet, and said, Surely a bloody husband art thou to me. [26] So
he let him go: then she said, A bloody husband thou art, because of the
circumcision.
[27] And the LORD said to Aaron, Go into the wilderness to meet Moses. And he
went, and met him in the mount of God, and kissed him. [28] And Moses told
Aaron all the words of the LORD who had sent him, and all the signs which he
had commanded him. [29] And Moses and Aaron went and gathered together all the
elders of the children of Israel:
[30] And Aaron spake all the words which the LORD had spoken unto Moses, and
did the signs in the sight of the people. [31] And the people believed: and
when they heard that the LORD had visited the children of Israel, and that he
had looked upon their affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshipped.
