Exodus 4:8-10
1599 Geneva Bible
8 So shall it be, if they will not believe thee, neither obey [a]the voice of the first sign, yet shall they believe for the voice of the second sign.
9 But if they will not yet believe these two signs, neither obey unto thy voice, then shalt thou take of the [b]water of the river, and pour it upon the dry land: so the water which thou shalt take out of the river, shall be turned to blood upon the dry land.
10 ¶ But Moses said unto the Lord, Oh my Lord, I am not eloquent, [c]neither at any time have been, nor yet since thou hast spoken unto thy servant: but I am [d]slow of speech and slow of tongue.
