[The Pentateuch]

Moses kept the sheep of Jethro his father in law priest of Midian, and he drove the flock to the backside of the desert, and came to the mountain of God, Horeb. And the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of a bush. And he perceived that the bush burned with fire and consumed not. Than Moses said: I will goo hē ce and see this great sight, how it cometh that the bush burneth not. And when the Lord saw that he came for to see, he called unto him out of the bush and said: Moses Moses And he answered: here am I. And he said: come not hither, but put thy shoes off thy feet: for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground. And he said: I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob And Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look upon God.
