Exodus 3:17-19
1599 Geneva Bible
17 Therefore I did say, I will bring you out of the affliction of Egypt unto the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, unto a land that floweth with milk and honey.
18 Then shall they obey my voice, and thou and the Elders of Israel shall go unto the King of Egypt, and say unto him, The Lord God of the Hebrews hath [a]met with us: we pray thee now therefore, let us go three days’ journey in the wilderness, that we may [b]sacrifice unto the Lord our God.
19 ¶ But I know, that the King of Egypt will not let you go, but by strong hand.
