Exodus 8:28 in Context — Exodus 8

26 E Moisés respondeu: Não convém que façamos assim, porque sacrificaríamos ao SENHOR nosso Deus a abominação dos egípcios. Eis que, se sacrificássemos a abominação dos egípcios diante deles, não nos apedrejariam?

27 Caminho de três dias iremos pelo deserto, e sacrificaremos ao SENHOR nosso Deus, como ele nos dirá.

28 E disse Faraó: Eu vos deixarei ir para que sacrifiqueis ao SENHOR vosso Deus no deserto, contanto que não vades mais longe; orai por mim.

29 E respondeu Moisés: Eis que, quando eu sair de tua presença, rogarei ao SENHOR que as diversas variedades de moscas se afastem de Faraó, e de seus servos, e de seu povo amanhã; contanto que Faraó não falte mais, não deixando o povo ir sacrificar ao SENHOR.

30 Então Moisés saiu da presença de Faraó, e orou ao SENHOR.
