And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh, and Moses cried unto the LORD upon the appointment of frogs which he had made unto Pharaoh.

And Moses answered, "It is not mete so to do. For we must offer unto the LORD our God, that which is an abomination unto the Egyptians: behold shall we sacrifice that which is an abomination unto the Egyptians before their eyes, and shall they not stone us?

We will therefore go three days' journey into the desert and sacrifice unto the LORD our God as he hath commanded us."

And Pharaoh said, "I will let you go, that ye may sacrifice unto the LORD your God in the wilderness: only go not far away, and see that ye pray for me."

And Moses went out from Pharaoh and prayed unto the LORD.

Pray ye unto the LORD, that the thunder of God and hail may cease, and I will let you go, and ye shall tarry no longer."

then thou shalt appoint unto the LORD all that openeth the matrix, and all the firstborn among the beasts which thou hast if they be males.

And the men came with the women - even as many as were willing hearted - and brought bracelets, earrings, rings and girdles and all manner jewels of gold; and all the men that waved wave offerings of gold unto the LORD;

And all that hove up gold or brass, brought a heave offering unto the LORD. And all men with whom was found sethim-wood meet for any manner work or service, brought it.

And the children of Israel brought willing offerings unto the LORD; both men and women, as many as their hearts made them willing to bring, for all manner works which the LORD had commanded to make by the hand of Moses.
