22 So Moses (drawn out) stretched out his hand toward heaven, and total darkness covered all the land of Egypt (land of bondage) for three days. 23 No one could see anyone else, and for three days no one left his place. Yet all the Israelites (God prevails) had light in their dwellings. 24 Then Pharaoh (great house) summoned Moses (drawn out) and said, “Go, worship the LORD {YHWH}. Even your⁺ little ones may go with you⁺; only your⁺ flocks and herds must stay behind.” 25 But Moses (drawn out) replied, “You must also provide us with sacrifices and burnt offerings to present to the LORD our God {YHWH Elohenu}. 26 Even our livestock must go with us; not a hoof will be left behind, for we will need some of them to worship the LORD our God {YHWH Elohenu}, and we will not know how we are to worship the LORD until we arrive.” 27 But the LORD {YHWH} hardened Pharaoh’s (great house) heart, and he was unwilling to let them go. 28 “Depart from me!” Pharaoh (great house) said to Moses. “Make sure you never see my face again, for on the day you see my face, you will die.” 29 “As you say,” Moses (drawn out) replied, “I will never see your face again.” Exodus 10:22-29, Berean Annotated Bible.
