17
and now, bear with, I pray you, my sin, only this time, and make ye supplication to Jehovah your God, that He turn aside from off me only this death.'
7
and the people come in unto Moses and say, `We have sinned, for we have spoken against Jehovah, and against thee; pray unto Jehovah, and He doth turn aside from us the serpent;' and Moses prayeth in behalf of the people.
6891. 'And you are to say to them' means instruction. This is clear from the meaning of 'saying to them' - when it is to be done by Moses, who represents the law from God - as instruction, as above in 6879, 6881, 6883.
