Exodus 8:22-24

Tree of Life Version

²² But Moses said, “That would not be right. For the offerings we intend to sacrifice to Adonai our God are an abomination to the Egyptians. If we sacrifice what is an abomination to the Egyptians, wouldn’t they stone us? ²³ We must walk a three-day journey into the wilderness and sacrifice to Adonai our God—just as He tells us.”

²⁴ Pharaoh said, “I will let you go, so that you may sacrifice to Adonai your God in the wilderness. Only you must not go very far away. Pray for me.”
