Pharaoh said,“ Who is the Lord? Why should I obey him? Why should I let Israel go? I don’t even know the Lord. And I won’t let Israel go.”

法老说：“耶和华是谁，使我听他的话，容以色列人去呢？我不认识耶和华，也不容以色列人去！”

法老说：“耶和华是谁，要我听他的话，让以色列人去？我不认识耶和华，也不放以色列人走！”

法老说：“耶和华是谁，要我听他的话，让以色列人去？我不认识耶和华，也不放以色列人走！”

法老说：“耶和华是谁？我凭什么要听从祂，放走以色列人？我不认识祂，也不会让以色列人离开！”

法老回答：“耶和华是谁，我要听他的话，让以色列人离开呢？我不认识耶和华，也不让以色列人离开。”

法老說：「耶和華是誰，使我聽他的話，容以色列人去呢？我不認識耶和華，也不容以色列人去！」

法老說：「耶和華是誰，要我聽他的話，讓以色列人去？我不認識耶和華，也不放以色列人走！」

法老說：「耶和華是誰，要我聽他的話，讓以色列人去？我不認識耶和華，也不放以色列人走！」

法老說：「耶和華是誰？我憑什麼要聽從祂，放走以色列人？我不認識祂，也不會讓以色列人離開！」

法老回答：“耶和華是誰，我要聽他的話，讓以色列人離開呢？我不認識耶和華，也不讓以色列人離開。”

法老說：『永恆主是誰，我須聽他的話，而讓以色列人走呢？我不認識永恆主；我不讓以色列人走！』

法老曰、耶和華為誰、使我聽其命、而釋以色列民乎、我不識耶和華、亦不釋以色列民、

法老曰、誰為耶和華、使我惟命是聽、而釋以色列族乎。我不識耶和華、曷肯釋以色列族。

法老曰、誰為耶和華使我聽其命、而釋以色列民、我不識耶和華亦不釋以色列民、

Pharaoh said,“ Who is the Lord, that I should obey him and let Israel go? I do not know the Lord and I will not let Israel go.”

But Pharaoh said,“ Who is the Lord, that I should obey his voice and let Israel go? I do not know the Lord, and moreover, I will not let Israel go.”

“ Is that so?” retorted Pharaoh.“ And who is the Lord? Why should I listen to him and let Israel go? I don’t know the Lord, and I will not let Israel go.”

But Pharaoh responded,“ Who is the LORD that I should obey him by letting Israel go? I don’t know the LORD, and besides, I will not let Israel go.”

But Pharaoh said,“ Who is the Lord that I should obey His voice to let Israel go? I do not know the Lord, and besides, I will not let Israel go.”

And Pharaoh said,“ Who is the Lord, that I should obey His voice to let Israel go? I do not know the Lord, nor will I let Israel go.”

And Pharaoh said, Who is Jehovah, that I should hearken unto his voice to let Israel go? I know not Jehovah, and moreover I will not let Israel go.

But Pharaoh responded,“ Who is Yahweh that I should obey Him by letting Israel go? I do not know anything about Yahweh, and besides, I will not let Israel go.”

And Pharaoh said, Who[ is] the LORD, that I should obey his voice to let Israel go? I know not the LORD, neither will I let Israel go.

But Pharaoh said,“ Who is the LORD that I should obey him by releasing Israel? I do not know the LORD, and I will not release Israel!”

Pharaoh said,“ Who is Yahweh, that I should listen to his voice to let Israel go? I don’t know Yahweh, and moreover I will not let Israel go.”

But I know that the king of Egypt will not let you and your people go. Only a mighty hand could make him do that.

Which one of all the gods of those countries has been able to save his land from me? So how can the Lord save Jerusalem from my power?”

Who is the Mighty One? Why should we serve him? What would we get if we prayed to him?’

Don’t let Hezekiah trick you. He’s telling you lies. Don’t believe him. No god of any nation or kingdom has been able to save his people from my power. No god has been able to save his people from the power of the kings who ruled before me. So your god won’t save you from my power either!’ ”

Eli’s sons were good for nothing. They didn’t honor the Lord.

“ We won’t listen to the message you have spoken to us in the Lord’ s name!We will certainly do everything we said we would. We’ll burn incense to the female god called the Queen of Heaven. We’ll pour out drink offerings to her. We’ll do just as we and our people of long ago have done. Our kings and our officials also did it. All of us did it in the towns of Judah and the streets of Jerusalem. At that time we had plenty of food. We were well off. We didn’t suffer any harm.

They didn’t think it was important to know God. So God let them continue to have evil thoughts. They did things they shouldn’t do.

Foolish people say in their hearts,“ There is no God.” They do all kinds of horrible and evil things. No one does anything good.

Because he is proud, that evil person doesn’t turn to the Lord. There is no room for God in any of his thoughts.

They will do things like that because they do not know the Father or me.

He will punish those who don’t know God. He will punish those who don’t obey the good news about our Lord Jesus.

They say,“ What we speak with our tongues will win the battle. What we say with our lips will keep us safe. No one will have victory over us.”

They were comparing the God of Jerusalem to the gods of the other nations of the world. But those gods were only statues. They had been made by human hands.
