Exodus 7:1-13

1And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, SeeH7200, I have madeH5414 thee a godH430 to PharaohH6547: and AaronH175 thy brotherH251 shall be thy prophetH5030.

2Thou shalt speakH1696 allH3605 that I commandH6680 thee: and AaronH175 thy brotherH251 shall speakH1696 unto PharaohH6547, that he letH7971 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 goH7971 outH7971 of his landH776.

3And I will hardenH7185 Pharaoh’sH6547 heartH3820, and multiplyH7235 my signsH226 and my wondersH4159 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714.

4But PharaohH6547 will notH3808 hearken unto youH5414, and I will layH5414 my handH3027 uponH413 EgyptH4714, and bringH3318 forthH3318 my hostsH6635, my peopleH5971 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 by greatH1419 judgmentsH8201.

5And the EgyptiansH4714 shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068, when I stretchH5186 forthH3318 mine handH3027 uponH5921 EgyptH4714, and bringH3318 outH3318 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 from among them.

6And MosesH4872 and AaronH175 didH6213 soH3651; as the LORDH3068 commandedH6680 them, soH3651 didH6213 they.

7And MosesH4872 was fourscore yearsH8141 oldH1121, and AaronH175 fourscore and threeH7969 yearsH8141 oldH1121, when they spake unto PharaohH6547.

8And the LORDH3068 spake unto MosesH4872 and unto AaronH175, sayingH559,

9When PharaohH6547 shall speakH1696 unto youH3588, sayingH559, Shew a wonderH4159 for youH3588: then thou shalt sayH559 unto AaronH175, TakeH3947 thy rodH4294, and castH7993 it downH7993 beforeH6440 PharaohH6547, that it becomeH1961 a serpentH8577.

10And MosesH4872 and AaronH175 wentH935 in unto PharaohH6547, and they didH6213 soH3651, as the LORDH3068 had commandedH6680: and AaronH175 castH7993 downH7993 his rodH4294 beforeH6440 PharaohH6547 and beforeH6440 his servantsH5650, and it becameH1961 a serpentH8577.

11Then PharaohH6547 also calledH7121 for the wiseH2450 menH2450 and the sorcerersH3784: and they also, the magiciansH2748 of EgyptH4714, didH6213 in like mannerH3651 with their enchantments.

12For they castH7993 downH7993 everyH376 manH376 his rodH4294, and they becameH1961 serpentsH8577: but Aaron’sH175 rodH4294 swallowedH1104 upH1104 their rodsH4294.

13And Pharaoh’sH6547 heartH3820 was hardenedH2388, and he hearkened notH3808 unto them; as the LORDH3068 had spokenH1696.
