But Moses said in the Lord’s presence, ‘If the Israelites will not listen to me, then how will Pharaoh listen to me, since I am such a poor speaker? ’ ,
But Moses replied 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.’ ,
Then I said: Woe is me, for I am ruined, because I am a man of unclean lips and live among a people of unclean lips, and because my eyes have seen the King, the Lord of Armies.
