God:
[whispering] Moses...

Moses:
Here I am.

God:
Take the sandals from your feet, for the place on which you stand is holy ground.

Moses:
Who are you?

God:
I Am that I Am.

Moses:
I don't understand.

God:
I am the God of your ancestors, Abraham, Issac, and Jacob.

Miriam:
[disembodied] You are born of our mother Yocheved! You are our brother!

[Moses quickly removes his sandals and throws them behind him.]

Moses:
What do you want with me?

God:
I have seen the oppression of my people in Egypt, and have heard their cry. [sounds of screams and cracking whips] So I shall stretch forth my hand, and lead them out of Egypt, and deliver them into a good land. A land flowing with milk and honey. And so, unto Pharaoh, I shall send... you.

Moses:
Me? W-who am I to lead these people? They'll never believe me, they won't even listen!

God:
I shall teach you what to say.

Moses:
[disembodied] Let my people go!

Moses:
But I was their enemy. I was the prince of Egypt, the son of the man who slaughtered... their children! You've chosen the wrong messenger! H-how can I even speak to these people?

God:
Who made man's mouth? Who made the deaf, the mute, the seeing, or the blind? Did not I? Now go!

[Moses falls to the ground, cowering.]

God:
[soothing, lifting Moses up] Oh, Moses, I shall be with you when you go to the king of Egypt. But Pharaoh will not listen. So I will stretch out my hand and smite Egypt with all my wonders! Take the staff in your hand, Moses. With it, you shall do my wonders! [whispering] I will be with you, Moses.
