Exodus 9:8-17
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 1boilsH7822 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. 112The 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 3the LordH3068 4hardenedH2388 Pharaoh’sH6547 heartH3820, and he did not listenH8085 to them, justH3512 asH3512 the LordH3068 had spokenH1696 to MosesH4872.
13Then the LordH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872, “5RiseH7925 upH7925 earlyH7925 in the morningH1242 and standH3320 beforeH6440 PharaohH6547 and sayH559 to him, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068, the GodH430 of the HebrewsH5680 saysH559: “6LetH7971 My peopleH5971 goH7971, so that they may serveH5647 Me. 14For thisH2088 timeH6471 I am going to sendH7971 allH3605 My plaguesH4046 7on you and your servantsH5650 and your peopleH5971, soH5668 thatH5668 8you may knowH3045 that thereH369 isH369 noH369 oneH369 likeH3644 Me in allH3605 the earthH776. 15For had I nowH6258 putH7971 outH7971 My handH3027 and struckH5221 you and your peopleH5971 with plagueH1698, you would then have been eliminatedH3582 from the earthH776. 16But indeedH199, 9for thisH2088 reasonH5668 I have allowed you to 10remainH5975, in orderH5668 to showH7200 you My powerH3581 and inH4616 orderH4616 toH4616 proclaimH5608 My nameH8034 throughoutH3605 the earthH776. 17StillH5750 you exaltH5549 yourself against My peopleH5971 11by not lettingH7971 them goH7971.
