Exodus 3:1-2-6 The Message (MSG)

1-2. Moses was shepherding the flock of Jethro, his father-in-law, the priest of Midian. He led the flock to the west end of the wilderness and came to the mountain of God, Horeb. The angel of God appeared to him in flames of fire blazing out of the middle of a bush. He looked. The bush was blazing away but it didn’t burn up.

3. Moses said, “What’s going on here? I can’t believe this! Amazing! Why doesn’t the bush burn up?”

4. God saw that he had stopped to look. God called to him from out of the bush, “Moses! Moses!”He said, “Yes? I’m right here!”

5. God said, “Don’t come any closer. Remove your sandals from your feet. You’re standing on holy ground.”

6. Then he said, “I am the God of your father: The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, the God of Jacob.”Moses hid his face, afraid to look at God.
