And the LORD{H3068} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Moses{H4872}, Go{H935}{(H8798)} in unto Pharaoh{H6547}: for I have hardened{H3513}{(H8689)} his heart{H3820}, and the heart{H3820} of his servants{H5650}, that I might shew{H7896}{(H8800)} these my signs{H226} before{H7130} him:

And that thou mayest tell{H5608}{(H8762)} in the ears{H241} of thy son{H1121}, and of thy son's{H1121} son{H1121}, what things I have wrought{H5953}{(H8694)} in Egypt{H4714}, and my signs{H226} which I have done{H7760}{(H8804)} among them; that ye may know{H3045}{(H8804)} how that I am the LORD{H3068}.

And Moses{H4872} and Aaron{H175} came in{H935}{(H8799)} unto Pharaoh{H6547}, and said{H559}{(H8799)} unto him, Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068} God{H430} of the Hebrews{H5680}, How long{H4970} wilt thou refuse{H3985}{(H8765)} to humble{H6031}{(H8736)} thyself before{H6440} me? let my people{H5971} go{H7971}{(H8761)}, that they may serve{H5647}{(H8799)} me.

Else{H3588}, if thou refuse{H3986} to let my people{H5971} go{H7971}{(H8763)}, behold, to morrow{H4279} will I bring{H935}{(H8688)} the locusts{H697} into thy coast{H1366}:

And they shall cover{H3680}{(H8765)} the face{H5869} of the earth{H776}, that one cannot be able{H3201}{(H8799)} to see{H7200}{(H8800)} the earth{H776}: and they shall eat{H398}{(H8804)} the residue{H3499} of that which is escaped{H6413}, which remaineth{H7604}{(H8737)} unto you from the hail{H1259}, and shall eat{H398}{(H8804)} every tree{H6086} which groweth{H6779}{(H8802)} for you out of the field{H7704}:

And they shall fill{H4390}{(H8804)} thy houses{H1004}, and the houses{H1004} of all thy servants{H5650}, and the houses{H1004} of all the Egyptians{H4714}; which neither thy fathers{H1}, nor thy fathers{H1}' fathers{H1} have seen{H7200}{(H8804)}, since the day{H3117} that they were upon the earth{H127} unto this day{H3117}. And he turned{H6437}{(H8799)} himself, and went out{H3318}{(H8799)} from Pharaoh{H6547}.

And Pharaoh's{H6547} servants{H5650} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto him, How long shall this man be a snare{H4170} unto us? let the men{H582} go{H7971}{(H8761)}, that they may serve{H5647}{(H8799)} the LORD{H3068} their God{H430}: knowest{H3045}{(H8799)} thou not yet{H2962} that Egypt{H4714} is destroyed{H6}{(H8804)}?

And Moses{H4872} and Aaron{H175} were brought again{H7725}{(H8714)} unto Pharaoh{H6547}: and he said{H559}{(H8799)} unto them, Go{H3212}{(H8798)}, serve{H5647}{(H8798)} the LORD{H3068} your God{H430}: but who are they that shall go{H1980}{(H8802)}?

And Moses{H4872} said{H559}{(H8799)}, We will go{H3212}{(H8799)} with our young{H5288} and with our old{H2205}, with our sons{H1121} and with our daughters{H1323}, with our flocks{H6629} and with our herds{H1241} will we go{H3212}{(H8799)}; for we must hold a feast{H2282} unto the LORD{H3068}.

And he said{H559}{(H8799)} unto them, Let the LORD{H3068} be so with you, as I will let you go{H7971}{(H8762)}, and your little ones{H2945}: look{H7200}{(H8798)} to it; for evil{H7451} is before{H6440} you.

Not so: go{H3212}{(H8798)} now ye that are men{H1397}, and serve{H5647}{(H8798)} the LORD{H3068}; for that ye did desire{H1245}{(H8764)}. And they were driven out{H1644}{(H8762)} from Pharaoh's{H6547} presence{H6440}.

And the LORD{H3068} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Moses{H4872}, Stretch out{H5186}{(H8798)} thine hand{H3027} over the land{H776} of Egypt{H4714} for the locusts{H697}, that they may come up{H5927}{(H8799)} upon the land{H776} of Egypt{H4714}, and eat{H398}{(H8799)} every herb{H6212} of the land{H776}, even all that the hail{H1259} hath left{H7604}{(H8689)}.

And Moses{H4872} stretched forth{H5186}{(H8799)} his rod{H4294} over the land{H776} of Egypt{H4714}, and the LORD{H3068} brought{H5090}{(H8765)} an east{H6921} wind{H7307} upon the land{H776} all that day{H3117}, and all that night{H3915}; and when it was morning{H1242}, the east{H6921} wind{H7307} brought{H5375}{(H8804)} the locusts{H697}.

And the locusts{H697} went up{H5927}{(H8799)} over all the land{H776} of Egypt{H4714}, and rested{H5117}{(H8799)} in all the coasts{H1366} of Egypt{H4714}: very{H3966} grievous{H3515} were they; before{H6440} them there were no such{H3651} locusts{H697} as they, neither after{H310} them shall be such.

For they covered{H3680}{(H8762)} the face{H5869} of the whole earth{H776}, so that the land{H776} was darkened{H2821}{(H8799)}; and they did eat{H398}{(H8799)} every herb{H6212} of the land{H776}, and all the fruit{H6529} of the trees{H6086} which the hail{H1259} had left{H3498}{(H8689)}: and there remained{H3498}{(H8738)} not any green thing{H3418} in the trees{H6086}, or in the herbs{H6212} of the field{H7704}, through all the land{H776} of Egypt{H4714}.

Then Pharaoh{H6547} called{H7121}{(H8800)} for Moses{H4872} and Aaron{H175} in haste{H4116}{(H8762)}; and he said{H559}{(H8799)}, I have sinned{H2398}{(H8804)} against the LORD{H3068} your God{H430}, and against you.

Now therefore forgive{H5375}{(H8798)}, I pray thee, my sin{H2403} only this once{H6471}, and intreat{H6279}{(H8685)} the LORD{H3068} your God{H430}, that he may take away{H5493}{(H8686)} from me this death{H4194} only.

And he went out{H3318}{(H8799)} from Pharaoh{H6547}, and intreated{H6279}{(H8799)} the LORD{H3068}.

And the LORD{H3068} turned{H2015}{(H8799)} a mighty{H3966} strong{H2389} west{H3220} wind{H7307}, which took away{H5375}{(H8799)} the locusts{H697}, and cast{H8628}{(H8799)} them into the Red{H5488} sea{H3220}; there remained{H7604}{(H8738)} not one{H259} locust{H697} in all the coasts{H1366} of Egypt{H4714}.

But the LORD{H3068} hardened{H2388}{(H8762)} Pharaoh's{H6547} heart{H3820}, so that he would not let the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} go{H7971}{(H8765)}.

And the LORD{H3068} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Moses{H4872}, Stretch out{H5186}{(H8798)} thine hand{H3027} toward heaven{H8064}, that there may be darkness{H2822} over the land{H776} of Egypt{H4714}, even darkness{H2822} which may be felt{H4959}{(H8686)}.

And Moses{H4872} stretched forth{H5186}{(H8799)} his hand{H3027} toward heaven{H8064}; and there was a thick{H653} darkness{H2822} in all the land{H776} of Egypt{H4714} three{H7969} days{H3117}:

They saw{H7200}{(H8804)} not one{H376} another{H251}, neither rose{H6965}{(H8804)} any{H376} from his place for three{H7969} days{H3117}: but all the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} had light{H216} in their dwellings{H4186}.

And Pharaoh{H6547} called{H7121}{(H8799)} unto Moses{H4872}, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, Go{H3212}{(H8798)} ye, serve{H5647}{(H8798)} the LORD{H3068}; only let your flocks{H6629} and your herds{H1241} be stayed{H3322}{(H8714)}: let your little ones{H2945} also go{H3212}{(H8799)} with you.

And Moses{H4872} said{H559}{(H8799)}, Thou must give{H5414}{(H8799)} us{H3027} also sacrifices{H2077} and burnt offerings{H5930}, that we may sacrifice{H6213}{(H8804)} unto the LORD{H3068} our God{H430}.

Our cattle{H4735} also shall go{H3212}{(H8799)} with us; there shall not an hoof{H6541} be left behind{H7604}{(H8735)}; for thereof must we take{H3947}{(H8799)} to serve{H5647}{(H8800)} the LORD{H3068} our God{H430}; and we know{H3045}{(H8799)} not with what we must serve{H5647}{(H8799)} the LORD{H3068}, until we come{H935}{(H8800)} thither.

But the LORD{H3068} hardened{H2388}{(H8762)} Pharaoh's{H6547} heart{H3820}, and he would{H14}{(H8804)} not let them go{H7971}{(H8763)}.

And Pharaoh{H6547} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto him, Get{H3212}{(H8798)} thee from me, take heed{H8104}{(H8734)} to thyself, see{H7200}{(H8800)} my face{H6440} no more{H3254}{(H8686)}; for in that day{H3117} thou seest{H7200}{(H8800)} my face{H6440} thou shalt die{H4191}{(H8799)}.

And Moses{H4872} said{H559}{(H8799)}, Thou hast spoken{H1696}{(H8765)} well{H3651}, I will see{H7200}{(H8800)} thy face{H6440} again{H3254}{(H8686)} no more.
