I know that he can speak well. And look, he is also coming out to meet you. When he sees you, he will be glad in his heart. 15 Now you shall speak to him and put the words in his mouth. And I will be with your mouth and with his mouth, and I will teach you what you shall do.

3. Exodus 4:13-16 16 So he shall be your spokesman to the people. And he himself shall be as a mouth for you, and you shall be to him as God.
