7 Now then, return the man’s wife, for he is a ^hprophet, so that he will ⁱpray for you, and you shall live. But if you do not return her, know that you shall surely die, you and all who are yours.”

17 ^vNow therefore, forgive my sin, please, only this once, and ^wplead with the Lord your God only to remove this death from me.”

12 Let her not be as one dead, whose flesh is half eaten away when he comes out of his mother’s womb.” 13 And Moses cried to the Lord, “O God, please heal her—please.”

7 And the people came to Moses and said, “We have sinned, for we have spoken against the Lord and against you. ^ePray to the Lord, that he take away the serpents from us.” So Moses prayed for the people.

19 And all the people said to Samuel, ^y“Pray for your servants to the Lord your God, that we may not die, for we have added to all our sins this evil, to ask for ourselves a king.”

24 And Simon answered, “Pray for me to the Lord, that nothing of what you have said may come upon me.”
