Exodus 8:8-15

8Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and said, “Appeal to the Lord to remove the frogs from me and my people. Then I will let the people go and they can sacrifice to the Lord.”

9Moses said to Pharaoh, “You may have the honor of choosing. When should I appeal on behalf of you, your officials, and your people, that the frogs be taken away from you and your houses, and remain only in the Nile?”

10“Tomorrow,” he answered. Moses replied, “As you have said, so that you may know there is no one like the Lord our God,

11the frogs will go away from you, your houses, your officials, and your people. The frogs will remain only in the Nile.”

12After Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh, Moses cried out to the Lord for help concerning the frogs that he had brought against Pharaoh.

13The Lord did as Moses had said: the frogs in the houses, courtyards, and fields died.

14They piled them in countless heaps, and there was a terrible odor in the land.

15But when Pharaoh saw there was relief, he hardened his heart and would not listen to them, as the Lord had said.
