And Moses replied, 'Here I am.' 5 God said, 'Do not come any closer. Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.' 6 Then he said, 'I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.'

I am sending you to Pharaoh to bring my people, the Israelites, out of Egypt.' 11 But Moses said to God, 'Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the Israelites out of Egypt?' 12 God reassured him, 'I will certainly be with you. And this will be the sign to you that I have sent you: when you have brought the people out of Egypt, you will worship God on this mountain.' 13 Then Moses said to God, 'Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them, "The God of your ancestors has sent me to you," and they ask me, "What is his name?" What should I tell them?' 14 God replied to Moses, 'I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: "I AM has sent me to you."' 15 God also said to Moses, 'Say to the Israelites, "The LORD, the God of your ancestors—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob—has sent me to you. This is my name forever, and this is how I am to be remembered in every generation." 16 Go, assemble the elders of Israel, and tell them, 'The LORD, the God of your ancestors—the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob—has appeared to me and said: "I have watched over you and have seen what has been done to you in Egypt." 17 'And I have promised to bring you up out of your affliction in Egypt to the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites—a land flowing with milk and honey.' 18 The elders of Israel will listen to you.

Now please let us take a three-day journey into the wilderness to offer sacrifices to the LORD our God.'

That is for the priests, the descendants of Aaron, who have been consecrated to burn incense. Leave the sanctuary, for you have been unfaithful, and you will not be honored by the Lord God.' 19 Uzziah, who was holding a censer to burn incense, became angry.
