Exodus 3:17-22
New International Version
17 And I have promised to bring you up out of your misery in Egypt(A) into the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites—a land flowing with milk and honey.’(B)
18 “The elders of Israel will listen(C) to you. Then you and the elders are to go to the king of Egypt and say to him, ‘The Lord, the God of the Hebrews,(D) has met(E) with us. Let us take a three-day journey(F) into the wilderness to offer sacrifices(G) to the Lord our God.’ 19 But I know that the king of Egypt will not let you go unless a mighty hand(H) compels him. 20 So I will stretch out my hand(I) and strike the Egyptians with all the wonders(J) that I will perform among them. After that, he will let you go.(K)
21 “And I will make the Egyptians favorably disposed(L) toward this people, so that when you leave you will not go empty-handed.(M) 22 Every woman is to ask her neighbor and any woman living in her house for articles of silver(N) and gold(O) and for clothing, which you will put on your sons and daughters. And so you will plunder(P) the Egyptians.”(Q)

Exodus 3:17-22
King James Version
17 And I have said, I will bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt unto the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, unto a land flowing with milk and honey.
18 And they shall hearken to thy voice: and thou shalt come, thou and the elders of Israel, unto the king of Egypt, and ye shall say unto him, The Lord God of the Hebrews hath met with us: and now let us go, we beseech thee, three days' journey into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice to the Lord our God.
19 And I am sure that the king of Egypt will not let you go, no, not by a mighty hand.
20 And I will stretch out my hand, and smite Egypt with all my wonders which I will do in the midst thereof: and after that he will let you go.
21 And I will give this people favour in the sight of the Egyptians: and it shall come to pass, that, when ye go, ye shall not go empty.
22 But every woman shall borrow of her neighbour, and of her that sojourneth in her house, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment: and ye shall put them upon your sons, and upon your daughters; and ye shall spoil the Egyptians.
