Exodus 3:18-20

New American Standard Bible

¹⁸ Then ^(A)they will ^[a]pay attention to what you say; and ^(B)you with the elders of Israel will come to the king of Egypt, and you will say to him, ‘The Lord, the God of the Hebrews, has met with us. So now, please let us go a ^(C)three days’ journey into the wilderness, so that we may sacrifice to the Lord our God.’ ¹⁹ But I know that the king of Egypt ^(D)will not permit you to go, ^(E)except ^[b]under compulsion. ²⁰ So I will reach out with ^(F)My hand and strike Egypt with all My ^(G)miracles which I shall do in the midst of it; and ^(H)after that he will let you go.
