Exodus 8:27-29
1599 Geneva Bible
27 Let us go three days’ journey in the desert, and sacrifice unto the Lord our God, (A)as he hath commanded us.
28 And Pharaoh said, I will let you go, that ye may sacrifice unto the Lord your God in the wilderness: but [a]go not far away, pray for me.
29 And Moses said, Behold, I will go out from thee, and pray unto the Lord, that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people tomorrow: but let Pharaoh from henceforth [b]deceive no more, in not suffering the people to sacrifice unto the Lord.
