29 Moses said, "Behold, I go out from you, and I will pray to Yahweh that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, tomorrow; only don't let Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to Yahweh."

7434. 'And Jehovah said to Moses' means further instruction. This is clear from the meaning of 'saying', when done by Jehovah to Moses, as instruction, dealt with in 7186, 7226, 7267, 7304, 7380, 7415, at this point further instruction since it is a statement of what further things had to be done.
