And the LORD appointed a set time, saying, To morrow the LORD shall do this thing in the land.

and Jehovah setteth an appointed time, saying, To-morrow doth Jehovah do this thing in the land.'

And the time was fixed by the Lord, and he said, Tomorrow the Lord will do this thing in the land.

And the Lord appointed a time, saying: "Tomorrow, the Lord will accomplish this word in the land."

Et statuit Jehova tempus, dicendo, Cras faciet Jehova rem hanc in terra.

And the Lord appointed a set time,.... For the coming of this plague, that it might plainly appear it came from him, and was not owing to any natural cause:
saying, tomorrow the Lord shall do this thing in the land; thus giving him time and space, as he had often done before, to consider the matter well, repent of his obstinacy, and dismiss the people of Israel, and so prevent the plague coming upon the cattle, as threatened.
