And Moses went out from Pharaoh, and entreated the Lord. ] He did as he promised he would, and prayed to the Lord to remove the flies from Pharaoh and his people.
28
Pharaoh answered, “I will let you go and sacrifice to the LORD your God in the wilderness, but you must not go very far. Now pray for me.”
29
“As soon as I leave you,” Moses said, “I will pray to the LORD, so that tomorrow the swarms of flies will depart from Pharaoh and his officials and his people. But Pharaoh must not act deceitfully again by refusing to let the people go and sacrifice to the LORD.”
30
Then Moses left Pharaoh and prayed to the LORD,
31
and the LORD did as Moses requested. He removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh and his officials and his people; not one fly remained.
32
But Pharaoh hardened his heart this time as well, and he would not let the people go.
