Exodus 9:1-13

1Then the LordH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872, “GoH935 to PharaohH6547 and speakH1696 to him, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068, the GodH430 of the HebrewsH5680 saysH559: “1LetH7971 My peopleH5971 goH7971, so that they may serveH5647 Me. 2For 2ifH518 you refuseH3986 to letH7971 them goH7971 and 3continueH5750 to holdH2388 them, 3beholdH2009, 4the handH3027 of the LordH3068 5will comeH1961 with a veryH3966 severeH3515 plagueH1698 on your livestockH4735 whichH834 are in the fieldH7704, on the horsesH5483, on the donkeysH2543, on the camelsH1581, on the herdsH1241, and on the flocksH6629. 46But the LordH3068 will makeH6395 aH6395 distinctionH6395 betweenH996 the livestockH4735 of IsraelH3478 and the livestockH4735 of EgyptH4714, so that 7nothingH3808H1697 will dieH4191 of allH3605 that belongs to the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478.”’” 5And the LordH3068 setH7760 a definiteH4150 timeH4150, sayingH559, “TomorrowH4279 the LordH3068 will doH6213 thisH2088 thingH1697 in the landH776.” 6So the LordH3068 didH6213 thisH2088 thingH1697 on the nextH4283 dayH4283, and 8allH3605 the livestockH4735 of EgyptH4714 diedH4191; 9but not oneH259 of the livestockH4735 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 diedH4191. 7And PharaohH6547 sentH7971 men, and they learned that, beholdH2009, not evenH5704 oneH259 of the livestockH4735 of IsraelH3478 was deadH4191. But 10the heartH3820 of PharaohH6547 was 11hardenedH3513, and he did not letH7971 the peopleH5971 goH7971.

8Then the LordH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872 and AaronH175, “TakeH3947 for yourselves handfulsH4393H2651 of sootH6368 from a kilnH3536, and MosesH4872 shall tossH2236 it toward the skyH8064 in the sightH5869 of PharaohH6547. 9Then it will becomeH1961 fine dustH80 overH5921 allH3605 the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and will turnH1961 into 12boilsH7822 breakingH6524 outH6524 with soresH76 on every personH120 and animalH929 through allH3605 the landH776 of EgyptH4714.” 10So they tookH3947 sootH6368 from a kilnH3536, and stoodH5975 beforeH6440 PharaohH6547; and MosesH4872 tossedH2236 it toward the skyH8064, and it becameH1961 boilsH7822 breakingH6524 outH6524 with soresH76 on every personH120 and animalH929. 1113The soothsayerH2748 priestsH2748 couldH3201 not standH5975 beforeH6440 MosesH4872 becauseH4480H6440 of the boilsH7822, for the boilsH7822 were on the soothsayerH2748 priestsH2748 as well as on allH3605 the EgyptiansH4714. 12But 14the LordH3068 15hardenedH2388 Pharaoh’sH6547 heartH3820, and he did not listenH8085 to them, justH3512 asH3512 the LordH3068 had spokenH1696 to MosesH4872.

13Then the LordH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872, “16RiseH7925 upH7925 earlyH7925 in the morningH1242 and standH3320 beforeH6440 PharaohH6547 and sayH559 to him, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068, the GodH430 of the HebrewsH5680 saysH559: “17LetH7971 My peopleH5971 goH7971, so that they may serveH5647 Me.
