Exodus 3:6 in Context — Exodus 3

4 L’Éternel vit qu’il se détournait pour voir; et Dieu l’appela du milieu du buisson, et dit: Moïse! Moïse! Et il répondit: Me voici!

5 Dieu dit: N’approche pas d’ici, ôte tes souliers de tes pieds, car le lieu sur lequel tu te tiens est une terre sainte.

6 Et il ajouta: Je suis le Dieu de ton père, le Dieu d’Abraham, le Dieu d’Isaac et le Dieu de Jacob. Moïse se cacha le visage, car il craignait de regarder Dieu.

7 L’Éternel dit: J’ai vu la souffrance de mon peuple qui est en Égypte, et j’ai entendu les cris que lui font pousser ses oppresseurs, car je connais ses douleurs.

8 Je suis descendu pour le délivrer de la main des Égyptiens, et pour le faire monter de ce pays dans un bon et vaste pays, dans un pays où coulent le lait et le miel, dans les lieux qu’habitent les Cananéens, les Héthiens, les Amoréens, les Phéréziens, les Héviens et les Jébusiens.
