Exodus 10:21–29

²¹And the Lord said unto Moses, ^uStretch out thine hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt. ²²And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a ^xthick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days: ²³they saw not one another, neither rose any from his place for three days: ^ybut all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings. ²⁴And Pharaoh called unto Moses, and ^zsaid, Go ye, serve the Lord; only let your flocks and your herds be stayed: let your ^alittle ones also go with you. ²⁵And Moses said, Thou must give us also sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice unto the Lord our God. ²⁶Our cattle also shall go with us; there shall not a hoof be left behind; for thereof must we take to serve the Lord our God; and we know not with what we must serve the Lord, until we come thither. ²⁷But the Lord ^bhardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he would not let them go. ²⁸And Pharaoh said unto him, Get thee from me, take heed to thyself, see my face no more; for in that day thou seest my face thou shalt die. ²⁹And Moses said, Thou hast spoken well, ^cI will see thy face again no more.
