А Мойсей відказав: „Не годи́ться чинити так, бо то огиду для Єгипту ми прино́сили б у жертву Господу, Богові нашому. Тож бу́демо прино́сити в жертву огиду для єги́птян на їхніх очах, і вони не вкамену́ють нас?

Що це означає
Pin the moment: Pharaoh has just been pounded by the plague of flies, and he's cracking — but only a little. His offer (right before this verse) is: "Fine, sacrifice to your God — but do it here, inside Egypt." It sounds generous. It's actually a trap. Moses' answer is the verse you're holding: no. Not "maybe," not "let me think about it" — "Не годиться чинити так" — it is not fitting, not permissible, to do it that way.
Why not? Because the animals Israel would need to sacrifice to the LORD were, to Egyptian eyes, sacred — bulls, cows, rams, the very creatures wrapped up in Egyptian worship (think of the bull-god Apis, the cow-goddess Hathor). To slit their throats on an altar, in public, "before their eyes," wouldn't read as devotion — it would read as blasphemy against Egypt's gods. Moses isn't worried about logistics. He's telling Pharaoh: what we do to worship our God will be an outrage to your religion, and your people will stone us for it.
Easy to miss: this is the third time in this stretch of Exodus that Pharaoh tries to negotiate down the terms of obedience — sacrifice here, don't go far, don't take everyone. Each time, Moses (and behind him, God) refuses the compromise. The verse sits in a pattern: real worship of the true God cannot be safely contained inside the boundaries the ruling power sets [[cite:matthew-henry
