²⁸ Pharaoh said, “I will let you go to offer sacrifices to the Lord your God in the wilderness, but you must not go very far. Now pray^(A) for me.”

²⁸ Pray^(A) to the Lord, for we have had enough thunder and hail. I will let you go;^(B) you don’t have to stay any longer.”

¹⁷ Now forgive^(A) my sin once more and pray^(B) to the Lord your God to take this deadly plague away from me.”
