Exodus 8:8-15

8After Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh, Moses cried out to Adonai concerning the frogs, which He had brought upon Pharaoh.

9So Adonai acted according to the word of Moses, and the frogs died out in the houses, the courts and the fields.

10They piled them together in large heaps, and the land stank.

11But when Pharaoh saw that there was relief, he hardened his heart and did not listen to them—just as Adonai had said.

12So Adonai said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch out your staff and strike the dust of the earth, and it will become gnats throughout all the land of Egypt.’”

13So they did. When Aaron stretched out his hand with his staff and struck the dust of the earth, there were gnats on men and animals. All the dust of the earth became gnats throughout all the land of Egypt.

14When the magicians attempted the same with their secret arts to bring forth gnats, they could not. There were gnats on men and animals.

15So the magicians said to Pharaoh, “This is the finger of God.” But Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he did not listen to them—just as Adonai had said.
