And Moses said to the LORD, 'Look, I'm not a good speaker, so how will Pharaoh listen to me?'

Listen up — God wants you to call out Israel's leaders. Tell them straight up: 'This is what the Lord God says to you so-called shepherds: You're in serious trouble for only looking out for yourselves! Aren't shepherds supposed to take care of their sheep?'

I'm going to take a third of them through some serious fire — not to destroy them, but to refine them like precious metals. Silver and gold have to go through intense heat to become pure, and that's what I'm doing with them. When they're going through it, they'll call out to me, and I'll actually listen. I'll look at them and say 'These are my people,' and they'll finally say back 'The Lord is my God.'
