Exodus 3:17-20

17I promise I will take you away from your misery in Egypt to the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites, a land flowing with milk and honey.” ’

18“The leaders of Israel will listen to you. Then you and the leaders must go to the king of Egypt and say to him, ‘The Lord God of the Hebrews has met with us. Please let us travel three days into the desert to offer sacrifices to the Lord our God.’

19I know that the king of Egypt will not let you go, even if he is forced to.

20So I will use my power to strike Egypt. After all the miracles that I will do there, he will let you go.
