And the Lord said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt.

They saw not one another, neither rose any from his place for three days: but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.

And Pharaoh called unto Moses, and said, Go ye, serve the Lord; only let your flocks and your herds be stayed: let your little ones also go with you.

And Moses said, Thou must give us also sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice unto the Lord our God.

Our cattle also shall go with us; there shall not an hoof be left behind; for thereof must we take to serve the Lord our God; and we know not with what we must serve the Lord, until we come thither.

Exod.10:21-26

耶和华对摩西说：“你向天伸杖，使埃及地黑暗，这黑暗似乎摸得着。

”

摩西说：“你总要把祭物和燔祭牲交给我们，使我们可以祭祀耶和华我们的神。

我们的牲畜也要带去，连一蹄也不留下，因为我们要从中取出来，侍奉耶和华我们的神。我们未到那里，还不知道用什么侍奉耶和华。”
