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
and if thou refuse to let them go behold i will smite all thy borders with frogs
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
and the frogs shall come up both on thee and upon thy people and upon all thy servants
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
and aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of egypt and the frogs came up and covered the land of egypt
and the magicians did so with their enchantments and brought up frogs upon the land of egypt
then pharaoh called for moses and aaron and said intreat 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
and moses said unto pharaoh glory over me when shall i intreat 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
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
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
and moses and aaron went out from pharaoh and moses cried unto the lord because of the frogs which he had brought against pharaoh
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
and they gathered them together upon heaps and the land stank
but when pharaoh saw that there was respite he hardened his heart and hearkened not unto them as the lord had said
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
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
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
then the magicians said unto pharaoh this is the finger of god and pharaohs heart was hardened and he hearkened not unto them as the lord had said
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
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
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
and i will put a division between my people and thy people to morrow shall this sign
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
and pharaoh called for moses and for aaron and said go ye sacrifice to your god in the land
and moses said it is not meet so to do for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the egyptians to the lord our god lo shall we sacrifice the abomination of the egyptians before their eyes and will they not stone
we will go three days journey into the wilderness and sacrifice to the lord our god as he shall command
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 intreat for me
and moses said behold i go out from thee and i will intreat 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
and moses went out from pharaoh and intreated the lord
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
and pharaoh hardened his heart at this time also neither would he let the people go
