02_EXO_08_01 And the LORD spake unto Moses, Go unto Pharaoh, and say unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Let my people go, that they may serve me.
02_EXO_08_02 And if thou refuse to let [them] go, behold, I will smite all thy borders with frogs:
02_EXO_08_03 And the river shall bring forth frogs abundantly, which shall go up and come into thine house, and into thy bedchamber, and upon thy bed, and into the house of thy servants, and upon thy people, and into thine ovens, and into thy kneadingtroughs:
02_EXO_08_04 And the frogs shall come up both on thee, and upon thy people, and upon all thy servants.
02_EXO_08_05 And the LORD spake unto Moses, Say unto Aaron, Stretch forth thine hand with thy rod over the streams, over the rivers, and over the ponds, and cause frogs to come up upon the land of Egypt.
02_EXO_08_06 And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.
02_EXO_08_07 And the magicians did so with their enchantments, and brought up frogs upon the land of Egypt.
02_EXO_08_08 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, Entreat the LORD, that he may take away the frogs from me, and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may do sacrifice unto the LORD.
02_EXO_08_09 And Moses said unto Pharaoh, Glory over me: when shall I entreat for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, to destroy the frogs from thee and thy houses, [that] they may remain in the river only?
02_EXO_08_10 And he said, To morrow. And he said, [Be it] according to thy word: that thou mayest know that [there is] none like unto the LORD our God.
02_EXO_08_11 And the frogs shall depart from thee, and from thy houses, and from thy servants, and from thy people; they shall remain in the river only.
02_EXO_08_12 And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh: and Moses cried unto the LORD because of the frogs which he had brought against Pharaoh.
02_EXO_08_13 And the LORD did according to the word of Moses; and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the villages, and out of the fields.
02_EXO_08_14 And they gathered them together upon heaps: and the land stank.
02_EXO_08_15 But when Pharaoh saw that there was respite, he hardened his heart, and hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had said.
02_EXO_08_16 And the LORD said unto Moses, Say unto Aaron, Stretch out thy rod, and smite the dust of the land, that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
02_EXO_08_17 And they did so; for Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, and smote the dust of the earth, and it became lice in man, and in beast; all the dust of the land became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
02_EXO_08_18 And the magicians did so with their enchantments to bring forth lice, but they could not: so there were lice upon man, and upon beast.
02_EXO_08_19 Then the magicians said unto Pharaoh, This [is] the finger of God: and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had said.
02_EXO_08_20 And the LORD said unto Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh; lo, he cometh forth to the water; and say unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Let my people go, that they may serve me.
02_EXO_08_21 Else, if thou wilt not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms [of flies] upon thee, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people, and into thy houses: and the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms [of flies], and also the ground whereon they [are].
02_EXO_08_22 And I will sever in that day the land of Goshen, in which my people dwell, that no swarms [of flies] shall be there; to the end thou mayest know that I [am] the LORD in the midst of the earth.
02_EXO_08_23 And I will put a division between my people and thy people: to morrow shall this sign be.
02_EXO_08_24 And the LORD did so; and there came a grievous swarm [of flies] into the house of Pharaoh, and [into] his servants' houses, and into all the land of Egypt: the land was corrupted by reason of the swarm [of flies].
02_EXO_08_25 And Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said, Go ye, sacrifice to your God in the land.
02_EXO_08_26 And Moses said, It is not meet so to do; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, and will they not stone us?
02_EXO_08_27 We will go three days' journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to the LORD our God, as he shall command us.
02_EXO_08_28 And Pharaoh said, I will let you go, that ye may sacrifice to the LORD your God in the wilderness; only ye shall not go very far away: entreat for me.
02_EXO_08_29 And Moses said, Behold, I go out from thee, and I will entreat the LORD that the swarms [of flies] may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, to morrow: but let not Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the LORD.
02_EXO_08_30 And Moses went out from Pharaoh, and entreated the LORD.
02_EXO_08_31 And the LORD did according to the word of Moses; and he removed the swarms [of flies] from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people; there remained not one.
02_EXO_08_32 And Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time also, neither would he let the people go.
