Moses replied, "Behold, when I leave you, I will pray to the Lord (Yahweh) that the swarms of flies leave Pharaoh, his servants, and the people tomorrow. Only Pharaoh must stop acting in a degrading manner (being deceitful, deceiving—Hebr. talal) and refuse to let the people go to sacrifice to the Lord (Yahweh)." [The unusual word for deceit (Hebr. talal) has the same root as the word tel, which is used to describe a city that has been built up and torn down. Pharaoh's approach is like a cruel joke in which Pharaoh's expectations have been built up like a city visible to all, only to be demolished, rebuilt, and demolished again.]
