Exodus 4:8-10

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁸ The Lord said, “If they do not believe you or do not respond to the first sign, they might believe because of the second sign. ⁹ If they do not believe even these two signs or listen to your voice, you are to take some water from the Nile and pour it on the dry land. The water which you take from the Nile will become blood on the dry land.”

¹⁰ But Moses said to the Lord, “Please, Lord, I have never been eloquent, either in the past or more recently or even since you started speaking to your servant, for my mouth and tongue are slow and clumsy.”^[a]
