*
And I will sever in that day the land of Goshen ,
in which my people dwell ,
that no swarms of flies shall be there ;
to the end thou mayest know that I am the LORD in the midst of the earth .
*
And I will put a division between my people and thy people :
to morrow shall this sign be .
*
And the LORD did so ;
and there came a grievous swarm of flies into the house of Pharaoh Par #
oh #,
and into his servants houses ,
and into all the land of Egypt :
the land was corrupted by reason of the swarm of flies .
*
And Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron ,
and said ,
Go ye ,
sacrifice to your God in the land .
*
And Moses said ,
It is not meet so to do ;
for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to the LORD our God :
lo ,
shall we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes ,
and will they not stone us ?
*
We will go three days journey into the wilderness ,
and sacrifice to the LORD our God ,
as he shall command us .
*
And Pharaoh said ,
I will let you go ,
that ye may sacrifice to the LORD your God in the wilderness ;
only ye shall not go very far away :
intreat for me b @#
ad #.
*
And Moses said ,
Behold ,
I go out from thee ,
and I will intreat the LORD that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh Par #
oh #,
from his servants ,
and from his people ,
to morrow :
but let not Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the LORD .
*
And Moses went out from Pharaoh Par #
oh #,
and intreated the LORD .
*
And the LORD did according to the word of Moses ;
and he removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh Par #
oh #,
from his servants ,
and from his people ;
there remained not one .
*
And Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time also ,
neither would he let the people go .
