Exodus 7:17-21
17ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068, “1By thisH2088 you shall knowH3045 that I am the LordH3068: beholdH2009, I will strikeH5221 2the waterH4325 that is in the NileH2975 with the staffH4294 that is in my handH3027, and 3it will be turnedH2015 to bloodH1818. 184The fishH1710 that are in the NileH2975 will dieH4191, and the NileH2975 will 5becomeH887 foulH887, and the EgyptiansH4714 will 67findH3811 difficultyH3811 in drinkingH8354 waterH4325 from the NileH2975.”’” 19Then the LordH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872, “SayH559 to AaronH175, ‘TakeH3947 your staffH4294 and 8stretchH5186 out your handH3027 overH5921 the watersH4325 of EgyptH4714, overH5921 their riversH5104, overH5921 their 9streamsH2975, and overH5921 their poolsH98, and overH5921 allH3605 their reservoirsH4723 of waterH4325, that they may becomeH1961 bloodH1818; and there will be bloodH1818 throughout allH3605 the landH776 of EgyptH4714, both in vessels of woodH6086 and in vessels of stoneH68.’”
20So MosesH4872 and AaronH175 didH6213 evenH3651 as the LordH3068 had commandedH6680. And he liftedH7311 up 1011the staffH4294 and struckH5221 the waterH4325 that was in the NileH2975, in the sightH5869 of PharaohH6547 and in the sightH5869 of his servantsH5650, and 12allH3605 the waterH4325 that was in the NileH2975 was turnedH2015 to bloodH1818. 21The fishH1710 that were in the NileH2975 diedH4191, and the NileH2975 13becameH887 foulH887, so that the EgyptiansH4714 couldH3201 not drinkH8354 waterH4325 from the NileH2975. And the bloodH1818 was through allH3605 the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
