Exodus 8:18-22
18The soothsayerH2748 priestsH2748 triedH6213 with their secretH3909 artsH3909 to produceH3318 1gnatsH3654, but 2they couldH3201 not; so there were 3gnatsH3654 on every personH120 and animalH929. 19Then the soothsayerH2748 priestsH2748 saidH559 to PharaohH6547, “4ThisH1931 is the fingerH676 of GodH430.” But Pharaoh’sH6547 heartH3820 was 5hardenedH2388, and he did not listenH8085 to them, justH3512 asH3512 the LordH3068 had saidH1696.
20Then the LordH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872, “6RiseH7925 earlyH7925 in the morningH1242 and presentH3320 yourself beforeH6440 PharaohH6547, 7as 8he comesH3318 outH3318 to the waterH4325; and sayH559 to him, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 saysH559: “9LetH7971 My peopleH5971 goH7971, so that they may serveH5647 Me. 21For ifH518 you are not going to letH7971 My peopleH5971 goH7971, beholdH2009, I will sendH7971 swarmsH6157 ofH6157 fliesH6157 on you and on your servantsH5650 and on your peopleH5971, and into your housesH1004; and the housesH1004 of the EgyptiansH4714 will be fullH4390 of swarmsH6157 ofH6157 fliesH6157, and alsoH1571 the groundH127 on whichH834 they live. 2210But on that dayH3117 I will setH6395 apartH6395 the landH776 of GoshenH1657, whereH834 My peopleH5971 are 11livingH5975, so that noH1115 swarmsH6157 ofH6157 fliesH6157 will be thereH8033, inH4616 orderH4616 thatH4616 you may knowH3045 that 1213I, the LordH3068, am in the midstH7130 of the landH776.
