Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and said, “Go, serve the Lord – only your flocks and herds will be detained. Even your families may go with you.”
If we do so, won’t their livestock, their property, and all their animals become ours? So let’s consent to their demand, so they will live among us.”
But Moses said, “Will you also provide us with sacrifices and burnt offerings that we may present them to the Lord our God?
Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and said, “Go, sacrifice to your God within the land.”
Pharaoh said, “I will release you so that you may sacrifice to the Lord your God in the desert. Only you must not go very far. Do pray for me.”
Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and said, “Pray to the Lord that he may take the frogs away from me and my people, and I will release the people that they may sacrifice to the Lord.”
Pray to the Lord, for the mighty thunderings and hail are too much! I will release you and you will stay no longer.”
