出埃及記 4:10 - 14 Moses said to the Lord, "Pardon your servant, Lord. I have never been eloquent, neither in the past nor since you have spoken to your servant. I am slow of speech and tongue." The Lord said to him, "Who gave human beings their mouths? Who makes them deaf or mute? Who gives them sight or makes them blind? Is it not I, the Lord? Now go; I will help you speak and will teach you what to say." But Moses said, "Pardon your servant, Lord. Please send someone else." Then the Lord's anger burned against Moses and he said, "What about your brother, Aaron the Levite? I know he can speak well. He is already on his way to meet you, and he will be glad to see you.
摩西對耶和華說:「主啊,我素日不是能言的人,就是從你對僕人說話以後,也是這樣。我本是拙口笨舌的。」 耶和華對他說:「誰造人的口呢?誰使人口啞、耳聾、目明、眼瞎呢?豈不是我耶和華嗎? 現在去吧,我必賜你口才,指教你所當說的話。」 摩西說:「主啊,你願意打發誰,就打發誰去吧!」 耶和華向摩西發怒說:「不是有你的哥哥利未人亞倫嗎?我知道他是能言的;現在他出來迎接你,他一見你,心裡就歡喜。

You must go to everyone I send you to and say whatever I command you. Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you and will rescue you," declares the Lord. Then the Lord reached out his hand and touched my mouth and said to me, "I have put my words in your mouth.

耶利米說,耶和華的話臨到我說: 我未將你造在腹中,我已曉得你;你未出母胎,我已分別你為聖;我已派你作列國的先知。 我就說:主耶和華啊,我不知怎樣說,因為我是年幼的。 耶和華對我說:你不要說我是年幼的,因為我差遣你到誰那裡去,你都要去;我吩咐你說什麼話,你都要說。 你不要懼怕他們,因為我與你同在,要拯救你。這是耶和華說的。 於是耶和華伸手按我的口,對我說:我已將當說的話傳給你。 看哪,我今日立你在列邦列國之上,為要施行拔出、拆毀、毀壞、傾覆,又要建立、栽植。

My clan is the weakest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my family." The Lord answered, "I will be with you, and you will strike down all the Midianites, leaving none alive." Gideon replied, "If now I have found favor in your eyes, give me a sign that it is really you talking to me.
耶和華的使者向基甸顯現,對他說:「大能的勇士啊,耶和華與你同在!」 基甸說:「主啊,耶和華若與我們同在,我們何至遭遇這一切事呢?我們的列祖不是向我們說『耶和華領我們從埃及上來』嗎?他那樣奇妙的作為在那裡呢?現在他卻丟棄我們,將我們交在米甸人手裡。」 耶和華觀看基甸,說:「你靠著你這能力去從米甸人手裡拯救以色列人,不是我差遣你去的嗎?」 基甸說:「主啊,我有何能拯救以色列人呢?我家在瑪拿西支派中是至貧窮的。我在我父家是至微小的。」 耶和華對他說:「我與你同在,你就必擊打米甸人,如擊打一人一樣。」 基甸說:「我若在你眼前蒙恩,求你給我一個證據,使我知道與我說話的就是主。

Are not Abana and Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Couldn't I wash in them and be cleansed?" So he turned and went off in a rage. Naaman's servants went to him and said, "My father, if the prophet had told you to do some great thing, would you not have done it? How much more, then, when he tells you, 'Wash and be cleansed'!" So he went down and dipped himself in the Jordan seven times, as the man of God had told him, and his flesh was restored and became clean like that of a young boy.

Elijah went up to him and threw his cloak around him. Elisha then left his oxen and ran after Elijah. "Let me kiss my father and mother goodbye," he said, "and then I will come with you." "Go back," Elijah replied. "What have I done to you?" So Elisha left him and went back. He took his yoke of oxen and slaughtered them. He burned the plowing equipment to cook the meat and gave it to the people, and they ate. Then he set out to follow Elijah and became his servant.
