Exodus 8:24 CPDV

²²  And in that day, I will cause a miracle in the land of Goshen, where my people are, so that flies will not be there. And you will know that I am the Lord in the midst of the earth.

²³  And I will set a division between my people and your people. Tomorrow this sign will be.'

²⁴  And the Lord did so. And there came very grievous flies into the houses of Pharaoh and of his servants, and into all the land of Egypt. And the land was polluted, in this way, by the flies.

²⁵  And Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron, and he said to them, 'Go and sacrifice to your God in this land.'

²⁶  And Moses said: 'It cannot be so. For we will immolate the abominations of the Egyptians to the Lord our God. For if we slaughter those things which the Egyptians worship, in their presence, they will stone us.
