A oddzielę dnia onego ziemię Gosen, w której lud mój mieszka, aby tam nie było rozmaitego robactwa, abyś poznał, żem Ja Pan w pośrodku ziemi.
W tym dniu jednak wyróżnię ziemię Goszen, w której przebywa mój lud. Tam nie będzie chmar much, po to, abyś poznał, że Ja, PAN, jestem obecny w granicach tej ziemi.
Ale na ten czas będzie od nich wolna ziemie Gessen, kędy mieszka lud mój, tak iż tam namniejszy robak nie postoi, abyś ty poznał żem ja Pan jest na ziemi.
Ale Mojżesz powiedział: Nie godzi się tak czynić; gdyż spełnimy naszemu Bogu, WIEKUISTEMU, wstrętną dla Micrejczyków ofiarę. A jeśli w ich oczach spełnimy wstrętną dla Micrejczyków ofiarę czyż nas nie ukamienują?
A oddzielę dnia onego ziemię Gosen, w której lud mój mieszka, aby tam nie było rozmaitego robactwa, abyś poznał, żem Ja Pan w pośrodku ziemi.
W owym dniu oddzielę ziemię Goszen, w której mieszka mój lud, aby tam nie było rozmaitych much. I poznasz, że ja jestem PAN pośrodku ziemi.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And I will sever in that day the land of Goshen, in which my people dwell,.... Distinguish it from other parts of the land of Egypt:
that no swarms of flies shall be there; which was a very wonderful thing, and so the word may be rendered. "I will marvellously sever or separate" o, and so the Targum of Jonathan, "I will do wonders or miracles in that day": as they were to make such a difference in one part of the country from another, and so near as Goshen was to the place where Pharaoh lived, and to bound and limit such sort of creatures as flies, which move swiftly from place to place, and particularly to keep the land of Goshen clear of them; when, as Bishop Patrick observes, it was a country that abounded with cattle, whose dung is apt to breed flies:
to the end thou mayest know that I am the Lord in the midst of the earth; he is God over all the earth, and rules as a King in the midst of it, and does whatsoever he pleases in it; see Psalms 74:12 and in the midst of the land of Goshen where his people dwelt, and over whom he was King in a peculiar manner, and took a peculiar care of them, to protect and defend them; and which must the more vex and distress the Egyptians, when they saw the Israelites clear of those plagues they were afflicted with.
o והפליתי "faciamque mirabilem", V. L. "miraculose agam", Fagius; "marvellously sever", Ainsworth.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
I will sever ... - This severance constituted a specific difference between this and the preceding plagues. Pharaoh could not of course attribute the exemption of Goshen from a scourge, which fell on the valley of the Nile, to an Egyptian deity, certainly not to Chepera (see the last note), a special object of worship in Lower Egypt.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Exodus 8:22. I will sever in that day — הפליתי hiphleythi, has been translated by some good critics, I will miraculously separate; so the Vulgate: Faciam mirabilem, "I will do a marvellous thing." And the Septuagint, παραδοξασω, I will render illustrious the land of Goshen in that day; and this he did, by exempting that land, and its inhabitants the Israelites, from the plagues by which he afflicted the land of Egypt.
