Exodus 10:24-26
Exodus 10:24-26 The Message (MSG)
Pharaoh called in Moses: “Go and worship GOD. Leave your flocks and herds behind. But go ahead and take your children.” But Moses said, “You have to let us take our sacrificial animals and offerings with us so we can sacrifice them in worship to our GOD. Our livestock has to go with us with not a hoof left behind; they are part of the worship of our GOD. And we don’t know just what will be needed until we get there.”
Exodus 10:24-26 King James Version (KJV)
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.

Then Pharaoh called to Moses, and said, “Go, serve the LORD; only let your flocks and your herds be detained. Even your little ones may go with you.” But Moses said, “You must also let us have sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice them to the LORD our God. Therefore, our livestock too shall go with us; not a hoof shall be left behind, for we shall take some of them to serve the LORD our God. And until we arrive there, we ourselves do not know with what we shall serve the LORD.”

Again the king of Egypt called for Moses. He said, “All of you may go and worship the LORD. You may take your women and children with you, but you must leave your flocks and herds here.” Moses said, “You must let us have animals to use as sacrifices and burnt offerings, because we have to offer them to the LORD our God. So we must take our animals with us; not a hoof will be left behind. We have to use some of the animals to worship the LORD our God. We won’t know exactly what we will need to worship the LORD until we get there.”

And we won’t know how we are to worship the LORD until we get there.”
