1 After that, Moses (drawn out) and Aaron (light bringer) went to Pharaoh (great house) and said, “This is what the LORD, the God {YHWH Elohe} of Israel (he wrestles with God), says: ‘Let My people go, so that they may hold a feast to Me in the wilderness.’”

2 But Pharaoh (great house) replied, “Who is the LORD {YHWH} that I should obey His voice and let Israel (he wrestles with God) go? I do not know the LORD, and I will not let Israel go.”

3 “The God {Elohe} of the Hebrews (those from beyond) has met with us,” they answered. “Please let us go on a three-day journey into the wilderness to sacrifice to the LORD {YHWH} our God, or He may strike us with plagues or with the sword.”
