2 and that ayou may tell in the hearing of your son and your son’s son the mighty things I have done in Egypt, and My signs which I have done among them, that you may bknow that I am the Lord.”
3 So Moses and Aaron came in to Pharaoh and said to him, “Thus says the Lord God of the Hebrews: ‘How long will you refuse to ahumble yourself before Me? Let My people go, that they may bserve Me.
4 Or else, if you refuse to let My people go, behold, tomorrow I will bring alocusts into your territory.
