Exodus 8:5-20
5And Jehovah saidH559 to MosesH4872, SayH559 unto Aaron, Stretch out thy hand with thy staff over the streams, over the riversH2975, and over the ponds, and cause frogsH6854 to come up on the land of Egypt.
6And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.
7And the scribes did so with their sorceries, and brought up frogsH6854 on the land of Egypt.
8And PharaohH6547 called MosesH4872 and AaronH175, and said, Intreat Jehovah, that he may take away the frogsH6854 from me and from my people; and I will let the people goH3318, that they may sacrifice to Jehovah.
9And MosesH4872 said to Pharaoh, Glory over me, for what time shall I intreat for thee, and for thy bondmen, and for thy people, to cut off the frogsH6854 from thee and from thy housesH1004; [so that] they shall remain in the river only?
10And he said, For to-morrow. And he said, Be it according to thy word; that thou mayest know that there is none like Jehovah our 1God.
11And the frogs shall depart from thee, and from thy houses, and from thy bondmen, and from thy people: they shall remain in the river only.
12And MosesH4872 and AaronH175 went out from Pharaoh; and MosesH4872 cried to Jehovah because of the frogs that he had brought against Pharaoh.
13And Jehovah did according to the word of Moses; and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields.
14And they gathered them in heaps; and the land stank.
15And PharaohH6547 saw that there was respite; and he hardened his heartH3820, and hearkened not to them, as Jehovah had saidH559.
16And Jehovah saidH559 to MosesH4872, SayH559 unto Aaron, StretchH7971 out thy staff, and smite the dust of the earth, and it shall become gnats throughout the land of Egypt.
17And they did so; and Aaron stretchedH7971 out his hand with his staff, and smote the dust of the earthH127, and there arose gnats on man and on beast: all the dust of the landH127 became gnats throughout the landH127 of EgyptH4713.
18And the scribes did soH4616 with their sorceries, to bring forth gnats; but they could not. And the gnats were on man and on beast.
19Then the scribes said to Pharaoh, This is the finger of 2God! But Pharaoh's heart wasH1961 stubborn, and he hearkened not to them, as Jehovah had said.
20And Jehovah said to Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before PharaohH6547 — behold, he will goH935 out to the water — and say to him, ThusH3651 saith Jehovah, Let my people goH935, that they may serve me.
