Exodus 7:1-13

1Then the LordH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872, “1SeeH7200, I have madeH5414 you as GodH430 to PharaohH6547, and your brotherH251 AaronH175 shall be your prophetH5030. 2As for you, you shall speakH1696 allH3605 that I commandH6680 you, and your brotherH251 2AaronH175 shall speakH1696 to PharaohH6547 that he letH7971 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 goH7971 outH7971 of his landH776. 3But 3I will hardenH7185 Pharaoh’sH6547 heartH3820, so that I may 4multiplyH7235 My signsH226 and My wondersH4159 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714. 4When 5PharaohH6547 does not listenH8085 to you, I will layH5414 My handH3027 on EgyptH4714 and 6bringH3318 outH3318 My armiesH6635, My peopleH5971 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, from the landH776 of EgyptH4714 by 7greatH1419 judgmentsH8201. 5Then 8the EgyptiansH4714 shall knowH3045 that I am the LordH3068, when I 9extendH5186 My handH3027 overH5921 EgyptH4714 and bringH3318 outH3318 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 from their midstH8432.” 6So MosesH4872 and AaronH175 didH6213 this; 10as the LordH3068 commandedH6680 them, soH3651 they didH6213. 7And MosesH4872 was 11eightyH8084 yearsH8141 oldH1121 and AaronH175 12eighty-threeH8084, when they spokeH1696 to PharaohH6547.

8Now the LordH3068 spokeH559 to MosesH4872 and AaronH175, sayingH559, 9“WhenH3588 PharaohH6547 speaksH1696 to you, sayingH559, ‘1314WorkH5414 a miracleH4159,’ then you shall sayH559 to AaronH175, ‘15TakeH3947 your staffH4294 and throwH7993 it downH7993 beforeH6440 PharaohH6547, so that it may turnH1961 into a serpentH8577.’” 10So MosesH4872 and AaronH175 cameH935 to PharaohH6547, and soH3651 they didH6213, justH3512 asH3512 the LordH3068 had commandedH6680; and AaronH175 threwH7993 his staffH4294 downH7993 beforeH6440 PharaohH6547 and 16his servantsH5650, and it 17turnedH1961 into a serpentH8577. 11Then PharaohH6547 alsoH1571 18calledH7121 for the wiseH2450 menH2450 and the sorcerersH3784, and they tooH1571, the 19soothsayerH2748 priestsH2748 of EgyptH4714, didH6213 the sameH3651 with 20their secretH3909 artsH3909. 12For eachH376 oneH376 threwH7993 downH7993 his staffH4294, and they turnedH1961 into serpentsH8577. But Aaron’sH175 staffH4294 swallowedH1104 their staffsH4294. 13Yet 21Pharaoh’sH6547 heartH3820 was 22hardenedH2388, and he did not listenH8085 to them, justH3512 asH3512 the LordH3068 had saidH1696.
