Exodus 10:7-9

The Voice

Servants (to Pharaoh): ⁷ How much longer will you let this man trap us? Why don’t you just release the people and let them go serve the Eternal their God? Look around you! Don’t you see that Egypt is in ruins?

Pharaoh: Some of your people may go and serve this God of yours, the Eternal! But not all. Who will be going with you?

Moses: ⁹ No. All of us must go—the young and the old. We will take our sons, daughters, flocks, and herds with us. We are all going into the desert to celebrate a great festival to the Eternal.
