God also said to Moses, “This is what you should tell the people: ‘YAHWEH [21] is the God of your ancestors, [22] the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. My name will always be YAHWEH. That is how the people will know me for generations and generations to come.’ {Tell the people,} ‘YAHWEH has sent me to you!’”
{The Lord also said,} “Go and gather together the elders (leaders) of the people and tell them, ‘YAHWEH, [23] the God of your ancestors, [24] has appeared to me. The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob spoke to me. The Lord says: I have been watching over you and I have seen the things that people did to you in Egypt.
“The elders (leaders) will listen to you. And then you and the elders (leaders) will go to the king of Egypt. You will tell him that ‘YAHWEH [26] is the God of the Hebrew [27] people. Our God came to us and told us to travel three days into the desert. There we must offer sacrifices [28] to YAHWEH our God.’
