Exodus 10:3-19

3And MosesH4872 and AaronH175 wentH935 in unto PharaohH6547, and saidH559 unto him, ThusH3541 saith the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of the HebrewsH5680, HowH4970 longH5704 wilt thou refuseH3985 to humble thyself beforeH6440 meH413? letH7971 my peopleH5971 goH935, that they may serveH5647 meH413.

4Else, ifH518 thou refuseH3986 to letH7971 my peopleH5971 goH935, beholdH2005, tomorrowH4279 will I bringH935 locustsH697 intoH935 thy borderH1366:

5and they shall coverH3680 the faceH7200 of the earthH776, that one shall notH3808 be ableH3201 to seeH7200 the earthH776: and they shall eatH398 the residue of that whichH5869 is escapedH6413, whichH5869 remaineth unto youH3605 from the hailH1259, and shall eatH398 everyH3605 treeH6086 whichH5869 groweth for youH3605 outH4480 of the fieldH7704:

6and thy housesH1004 shall be filledH4390, and the housesH1004 of allH3605 thy servantsH5650, and the housesH1004 of allH3605 the EgyptiansH4713; as neitherH3808 thy fathersH1 norH3808 thy fathers’H1 fathersH1 have seenH7200, sinceH834 the dayH3117 that they were uponH5921 the earthH127 unto this dayH3117. And he turnedH6437, and wentH3318 outH3318 from PharaohH6547.

7And Pharaoh’sH6547 servantsH5650 saidH559 unto him, HowH4970 longH5704 shall this manH376 be a snareH4170 unto usH413? letH7971 the menH376 goH7971, that they may serveH5647 the LORDH3068 their GodH430: knowest thou notH2088 yet that EgyptH4714 is destroyedH6?

8And MosesH4872 and AaronH175 were broughtH7725 againH7725 unto PharaohH6547: and he saidH559 unto them, GoH1980, serveH5647 the LORDH3068 your GodH430; but who are they that shall goH1980?

9And MosesH4872 saidH559, WeH3588 will go with our youngH5288 and with our oldH1121, with our sonsH1121 and with our daughtersH1323, with our flocksH6629 and with our herdsH1241 will weH3588 go; for weH3588 mustH1121 hold a feastH2282 unto the LORDH3068.

10And he saidH559 unto them, SoH3651 be the LORDH3068 with youH834, as I will letH7971 youH834 goH7971, and your littleH2945 onesH2945: lookH7200 to it; for evilH7451 is beforeH6440 youH834.

11NotH3808 soH3651: goH4994 nowH4994 ye that are menH1397, and serveH5647 the LORDH3068; for that is whatH3588 ye desireH1245. And they were drivenH1644 outH1644 from Pharaoh’sH6547 presenceH6440.

12And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, StretchH5186 outH5186 thine handH3027 over the landH776 of EgyptH4714 for the locustsH697, that they may comeH5927 upH5927 uponH5921 the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and eatH398 everyH3605 herbH6212 of the landH776, evenH853 allH3605 that the hailH1259 hath leftH7604.

13And MosesH4872 stretchedH5186 forthH5375 his rodH4294 over the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and the LORDH3068 broughtH5375 an eastH6921 windH7307 uponH5921 the landH776 allH3605 that dayH3117, and allH3605 the nightH3915; and when it was morningH1242, the eastH6921 windH7307 broughtH5375 the locustsH697.

14And the locustsH697 wentH5927 upH5927 over allH3605 the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and restedH5117 in allH3605 the bordersH1366 of EgyptH4714; veryH3966 grievousH3515 were they; beforeH6440 them there were noH3808 suchH3651 locustsH697 as they, neitherH3808 afterH310 them shall be suchH3651.

15For they coveredH3680 the faceH5869 of the wholeH3605 earthH776, soH3808 that the landH776 was darkenedH2821; and they didH834 eatH398 everyH3605 herbH6212 of the landH776, and allH3605 the fruitH6529 of the treesH6086 whichH834 the hailH1259 had leftH3498: and there remainedH3498 notH3808 anyH3605 greenH3418 thingH3605, either treeH6086 or herbH6212 of the fieldH7704, throughH3605 allH3605 the landH776 of EgyptH4714.

16Then PharaohH6547 calledH7121 for MosesH4872 and AaronH175 in hasteH4116; and he saidH559, I have sinnedH2398 againstH2398 the LORDH3068 your GodH430, and againstH2398 youH7121.

17NowH6258 therefore forgiveH5375, I prayH4994 thee, my sinH2403 onlyH389 this onceH6471, and entreatH6279 the LORDH3068 your GodH430, that he may takeH5375 awayH5493 from meH4994 this deathH4194 onlyH389.

18And he wentH3318 outH3318 from PharaohH6547, and entreatedH6279 the LORDH3068.

19And the LORDH3068 turnedH2015 an exceedingH3966 strongH2389 westH3220 windH7307, whichH7307 tookH5375 upH5375 the locustsH697, and droveH8628 them intoH2015 the Red SeaH3220; there remainedH7604 notH3808 one locustH697 in allH3605 the borderH1366 of EgyptH4714.
