Exodus 10:8-29

8And Moses and Aaron were brought again to Pharaoh. And he said to them, Go, serve Jehovah your 1God. Who are they that shall go? 9And Moses said, We will go with our young and with our old, with our sons and with our daughters; with our flocks and with our herds will we go; for we have a feast of Jehovah. 10And he said to them, Let Jehovah be so with you, as I let you go, and your little ones: see that evil is before you! 11Not so: go now, ye [that are] men, and serve Jehovah! for it is that ye have desired. And they were driven out from Pharaoh's presence. 12And Jehovah said to Moses, Stretch out thy hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up over the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land — all that the hail hath left. 13And Moses stretched out his staff over the land of Egypt, and Jehovah brought an east wind on the land all that day and all that night. When it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts. 14And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the borders of Egypt, very grievous; before them there were no such locusts as they, neither after them will be such. 15And they covered the face of the whole land, so that the land was darkened; and they ate every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees that the hail had left; and there remained not any green thing on the trees, and in the herbs of the field, throughout the land of Egypt. 16And Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron in haste; and he said, I have sinned against Jehovah your 2God, and against you. 17And now, forgive, I pray you, my sin only this time, and intreat Jehovah your 3God that he may take away from me this death only! 18And he went out from Pharaoh, and intreated Jehovah. 19And Jehovah turned a very powerful west wind, which took away the locusts, and drove them into the Red Sea: there remained not one locust in all the borders of Egypt. 20And Jehovah made Pharaoh's heart stubborn, and he did not let the children of Israel go. 21And Jehovah said to Moses, Stretch out thy hand toward the heavens, that there may be darkness in the land of Egypt — so that one may feel darkness. 22And Moses stretched out his hand toward the heavens; and there was a thick darkness throughout the land of Egypt three days: 23they saw not one another, neither rose any from his place, for three days. But all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings. 24And Pharaoh called Moses and said, Go, serve Jehovah; only, let your flocks and your herds remain; let your little ones also go with you. 25And Moses said, Thou must give also sacrifices and burnt-offerings into our hands, that we may sacrifice to Jehovah our 4God. 26Our cattle also must go with us: there shall not a hoof be left behind; for we must take thereof to serve Jehovah our 5God; and we do not know with what we must serve Jehovah, until we come there. 27But Jehovah made Pharaoh's heart stubborn, and he would not let them go. 28And Pharaoh said to him, Get thee from me, take heed to thyself, see my face no more; for in the day thou seest my face thou shalt die. 29And Moses said, Thou hast spoken rightly: I will see thy face again no more!
