Exodus 3:4-6

Expanded Bible

⁴ When the Lord saw Moses was ·coming [^Lturning aside] to look at it, God called to him from the bush, “Moses, Moses!”

And Moses said, “Here I am.”

⁵ Then God said, “Do not come any closer. Take off your sandals [^Lfrom your feet], because the place where you are standing is holy ground. ⁶ I am the God of your ·ancestors [fathers; ^Lfather]—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” Moses ·covered [hid] his face because he was afraid to look at God.
