Exodus 10:22-29 ▼

22 And Moses stretched out his hand toward the heavens, and there was thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days.

23 They could not see, each man his brother, and no man rose from his place for three days. And for all the sons of Israel there was light in their dwellings.

24 And Pharaoh called to Moses and said, “Go, serve YHWH. Only your? flocks and your? herds shall stay behind; also your? little ones shall go with you?.”

25 And Moses said, “You also must give into our hands sacrifices and burnt offerings, and we shall make them to YHWH our God.

26 And also our livestock shall go with us. Not a hoof shall remain, for from it we shall take to serve YHWH our God, and we do not know with what we shall serve YHWH until we arrive there.”

27 And YHWH strengthened the heart of Pharaoh, and he was not willing to send them out.

28 And Pharaoh said to him, “Go away from me! Take heed to yourself—do not again see my face! For in the day you see my face, you shall die!”

29 And Moses said, “Thus you have spoken! I will not ever again see your face!”
