22 And in that day aI will set apart the land of bGoshen, in which My people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there, in order that you may cknow that I am the Lord in the midst of the dland.
23 I will make a difference between My people and your people. Tomorrow this asign shall be.” ’ ”
24 And the Lord did so. aThick swarms of flies came into the house of Pharaoh, into his servants’ houses, and into all the land of Egypt. The land was corrupted because of the swarms of flies.
25 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, “Go, sacrifice to your God in the land.”
26 And Moses said, “It is not right to do so, for we would be sacrificing athe abomination of the Egyptians to the Lord our God. If we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, then will they not1 stone us?
