[The Pentateuch]

And Moses said unto the Lord: then¹ the Egyptians shall hear it / for thou broughtest this people with thy might from among them. And it will be told to the inhabitants of this land also / for they have heard likewise / that thou the Lord art among this people / and that thou art seen face to face / & y• t•y cloud standeth over them & that thou goest before them by day time in a pillar of a cloud / & in a pillar of fire by night. If thou shall kill all this people as they were but one man then the nations which have heard the fame of the / will speak saying: because yt Lord was not able to bring in this people in to • land which he swore unto them / therefore he slew them in the wilderness.

And Moses sayed vnto the Lorde: then¹ the Egiptians shall heare it / for thou broughtest this people with thy mighte from amonge them. And it wilbe tolde to the inhabiters of this lande also / for they haue herde likewise / that thou the Lorde art amōge this people / ād yt thou art sene face to face / & y• t•y cloude stondeth ouer them & that thou goest before them by daye tyme in a piler of a cloude / & in a piler of fyre by nyght. Yf thou shall kill all this people as thei were but one mā then the nacions which haue herde the fame of the / will speake sayenge: because yt Lorde was not able to bringe in this people in to • londe which he swore vnto them / therfore he slewe them in the wildernesse.
