Exodus 8:2-14

2If you refuse to let them go, I will send thousands of frogs to bring trouble to your whole country.

3The Nile river will be full of frogs. The frogs will go into your house. They will jump into your bed. They will go into the houses of your servants. They will go into the houses of your people. They will jump into your ovens and into your dishes.

4The frogs will jump all over you. They will jump on your people and on all your servants.” ’

5Then the Lord said to Moses, ‘Say to Aaron, “Take your stick in your hand. Then raise your hand over the rivers, the streams and the pools. You will cause frogs to come up over the whole of Egypt.” ’

6So Aaron lifted up his hand over the water of Egypt. Then the frogs came up and they covered the whole of Egypt.

7But the magicians used their magic to do the same thing. They also made frogs come up on the land of Egypt.

8Then Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron to come to him. He said, ‘Pray to the Lord. Ask him to remove the frogs from me and from my people. Then I will let your people go. They can offer sacrifices to the Lord.’

9Moses said to Pharaoh, ‘I will let you choose the time when I should pray to God. Then I will ask God to do this for you, for your servants and for your people. I will ask God to remove the frogs from you and from all your houses. The frogs will remain only in the Nile river.’

10Pharaoh said, ‘Do it tomorrow.’ Moses answered, ‘I will do what you have asked. Then you will know that there is nobody like the Lord our God.

11The frogs will go away from you and your houses. They will go away from your servants and your people. They will remain only in the river.’

12So Moses and Aaron left Pharaoh. Then Moses prayed to the Lord about the frogs that he had brought to punish Pharaoh.

13And the Lord did what Moses asked. The frogs in the houses, in the yards and in the fields all died.

14The people swept the frogs together to make big heaps. There was a very bad smell over the whole country.
