Exodus 7:1-13

1And Jehovah saidH559 unto MosesH4872, SeeH7200, I have madeH5414 thee as GodH430 to PharaohH6547; and AaronH175 thy brotherH251 shall beH1961 thy prophetH5030. 2Thou shalt speakH1696 all that I commandH6680 thee; and AaronH175 thy brotherH251 shall speakH1696 unto PharaohH6547, that he let the children of IsraelH3478 goH7971 out of his landH776. 3And I will hardenH7185 Pharaoh’sH6547 heartH3820, and multiplyH7235 my signsH226 and my wondersH4159 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714. 4But PharaohH6547 will not hearken unto you, and I will lay my handH3027 upon EgyptH4714, and bringH3318 forthH3318 my hostsH6635, my peopleH5971 the children of IsraelH3478, out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 by greatH1419 judgmentsH8201. 5And the Egyptians shall knowH3045 that I am Jehovah, when I stretchH5186 forthH3318 my handH3027 upon EgyptH4714, and bringH3318 out the children of IsraelH3478 from among them. 6And MosesH4872 and AaronH175 did soH3651; as Jehovah commandedH6680 them, soH3651 did they. 7And MosesH4872 was fourscore yearsH8141 old, and AaronH175 fourscore and threeH7969 yearsH8141 old, when they spake unto PharaohH6547.

8And Jehovah spake unto MosesH4872 and unto AaronH175, sayingH559, 9When PharaohH6547 shall speakH1696 unto you, sayingH559, Show a wonderH4159 for you; then thou shalt sayH559 unto AaronH175, TakeH3947 thy rodH4294, and castH7993 it downH7993 before PharaohH6547, that it becomeH1961 a serpentH8577. 10And MosesH4872 and AaronH175 wentH935 in unto PharaohH6547, and they did soH3651, as Jehovah had commandedH6680: and AaronH175 castH7993 downH7993 his rodH4294 before PharaohH6547 and before his servantsH5650, and it becameH1961 a serpentH8577. 11Then PharaohH6547 alsoH1571 calledH7121 for the wiseH2450 men and the sorcerersH3784: and they alsoH1571, the magiciansH2748 of EgyptH4714, did in like manner with their enchantments. 12For they castH7993 down every manH376 his rodH4294, and they becameH1961 serpentsH8577: but Aaron’s rodH4294 swallowedH1104 up their rodsH4294. 13And Pharaoh’s heartH3820 was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them; as Jehovah had spokenH1696.
