Exod 8:1 And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, “Go to Pharaoh and say to him, ‘Thus
said יהוה, “Let My people go, so that they serve Me.
Exod 8:2 “But if you refuse to let them go, see, I am smiting all your border
with frogs.
Exod 8:3 “And the river shall swarm with frogs, which shall go up and shall
come into your house, and into your bedroom, and on your bed, and into the
houses of your servants, and on your people, and into your ovens, and into
your kneading bowls,
Exod 8:4 and the frogs shall come up on you and on your people and on all
your servants.” ’ ”
Exod 8:5 And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Say to Aharon, ‘Stretch out your hand
with your rod over the streams, over the rivers, and over the ponds, and
cause frogs to come up on the land of Mitsrayim.’ ”
Exod 8:6 So Aharon stretched out his hand over the waters of Mitsrayim,
and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Mitsrayim.
Exod 8:7 And the magicians did so with their magic, and brought up frogs on
the land of Mitsrayim.
Exod 8:8 Pharaoh then called for Mosheh and Aharon, and said, “Pray to
יהוה to take away the frogs from me and from my people, and I shall let the
people go to slaughter to יהוה.”
Exod 8:9 And Mosheh said to Pharaoh, “Explain yourself to me: When am I
to pray for you, and for your servants, and for your people, to destroy the
frogs from you and your houses, and remain only in the river?”
Exod 8:10 So he said, “Tomorrow.” And he said, “Let it be according to
your word, so that you know that there is no one like יהוה our Elohim.
Exod 8:11 “And the frogs shall turn aside from you, and from your houses,
and from your servants, and from your people – they shall remain in the river
only.”
Exod 8:12 And Mosheh and Aharon went out from Pharaoh. And Mosheh
cried out to יהוה concerning the frogs which He had brought against Pharaoh.
Exod 8:13 And יהוה did according to the word of Mosheh. And the frogs
died out of the houses, out of the courtyards, and out of the fields.
Exod 8:14 And they gathered them together in heaps, and the land stank.
Exod 8:15 And when Pharaoh saw that there was relief, he hardened his
heart and did not listen to them, as יהוה had said.
Exod 8:16 And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Say to Aharon, ‘Stretch out your rod,
and strike the dust of the land, so that it becomes gnats in all the land of
Mitsrayim.’ ”
Exod 8:17 And they did so, and Aharon stretched out his hand with his rod
and struck the dust of the earth, and it became gnats on man and beast. All the
dust of the land became gnats in all the land of Mitsrayim.
Exod 8:18 And the magicians did similarly with their magic to bring forth
gnats, but they were unable. And there were gnats on man and beast.
Exod 8:19 The magicians then said to Pharaoh, “This is the finger of
Elohim!” But the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not listen to
them, as יהוה had said.
Exod 8:20 And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Rise early in the morning and stand
before Pharaoh as he comes out to the water, and say to him, ‘Thus said יהוה,
“Let My people go, so that they serve Me.
Exod 8:21 “Or else, if you do not let My people go, see, I am sending
swarms of flies on you and your servants, and on your people and into your
houses. And the houses of the Mitsrites shall be filled with swarms of flies,
and also the ground on which they stand.
Exod 8:22 “And in that day I shall separate the land of Goshen, in which My
people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there, so that you know that I
am יהוה in the midst of the land.
Exod 8:23 “And I shall put a distinction between My people and your
people. Tomorrow this sign shall be.” ’ ”
Exod 8:24 And יהוה did so, and thick swarms of flies came into the house of
Pharaoh, and into his servants’ houses, and into all the land of Mitsrayim,
and the land was ruined because of the swarms of flies.
Exod 8:25 Pharaoh then called for Mosheh and Aharon, and said, “Go,
slaughter to your Elohim in the land.”
Exod 8:26 And Mosheh said, “It is not right to do so, for we would be
slaughtering the abomination of the Mitsrites to יהוה our Elohim. See, if we
slaughter the abomination of the Mitsrites before their eyes, would they not
stone us?
Exod 8:27 “Let us go three days’ journey into the wilderness, then we shall
slaughter to יהוה our Elohim, as He commands us.”
Exod 8:28 And Pharaoh said, “I am letting you go, then you shall slaughter to
יהוה your Elohim in the wilderness. Only, do not go very far away! Pray for
me.”
Exod 8:29 And Mosheh said, “See, when I leave you I shall pray to יהוה, and
tomorrow the swarms of flies shall depart from Pharaoh, from his servants,
and from his people. But do not let Pharaoh again deceive, not to let the
people go to slaughter to יהוה.”
Exod 8:30 And Mosheh went out from Pharaoh and prayed to יהוה.
Exod 8:31 And יהוה did according to the word of Mosheh and removed the
swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people. Not
one remained.
Exod 8:32 But Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time too, and did not let the
people go.

Exod 9:1 And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Go in to Pharaoh and speak to him,
‘Thus said יהוה Elohim of the Heḇrews, “Let My people go, so that they serve
Me.
Exod 9:2 “For if you refuse to let them go, and still hold them,
Exod 9:3 see, the hand of יהוה is on your livestock in the field, on the horses,
on the donkeys, on the camels, on the cattle, and on the sheep – a very
grievous pestilence.
Exod 9:4 “And יהוה shall separate between the livestock of Yisra’ĕl and the
livestock of Mitsrayim, and let no matter die of all that belongs to the
children of Yisra’ĕl.” ’ ”
Exod 9:5 And יהוה set an appointed time, saying, “Tomorrow יהוה is going to
do this word in the land.”
Exod 9:6 And יהוה did this word on the next day, and all the livestock of
Mitsrayim died, but of the livestock of the children of Yisra’ĕl, not one died.
Exod 9:7 Then Pharaoh sent, and see, not even one of the livestock of the
Yisra’ĕlites was dead. But the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not
let the people go.
Exod 9:8 And יהוה said to Mosheh and Aharon, “Fill your hands with ashes
from a furnace and let Mosheh scatter it toward the heavens before the eyes
of Pharaoh.
Exod 9:9 “And it shall become fine dust in all the land of Mitsrayim, and it
shall cause boils that break out in sores on man and beast in all the land of
Mitsrayim.”
Exod 9:10 So they took ashes from the furnace and stood before Pharaoh,
and Mosheh scattered them toward the heavens. And they caused boils,
breaking out in sores on man and beast.
Exod 9:11 And the magicians were unable to stand before Mosheh because
of the boils, for the boils were on the magicians and on all the Mitsrites.
Exod 9:12 But יהוה hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he did not listen to
them, as יהוה had said to Mosheh.
Exod 9:13 And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Rise early in the morning and stand
before Pharaoh, and say to him, ‘Thus said יהוה Elohim of the Heḇrews, “Let
My people go, so that they serve Me,
Exod 9:14 for at this time I am sending all My plagues unto your heart, and
on your servants and on your people, so that you know that there is no one
like Me in all the earth.
Exod 9:15 “Now if I had stretched out My hand and struck you and your
people with pestilence, then you would have been cut off from the earth.
Exod 9:16 “And for this reason I have raised you up, in order to show you
My power, and in order to declare My Name in all the earth.
Exod 9:17 “You still exalt yourself against My people in that you do not let
them go!
Exod 9:18 “See, tomorrow about this time I am causing very heavy hail to
rain down, such as has not been in Mitsrayim, from the day of its founding
until now.
Exod 9:19 “And now send, bring your livestock to safety, and all that you
have in the field, for the hail shall come down on every man and every beast
which is found in the field and is not brought home, and they shall die.” ’ ”
Exod 9:20 Those among the servants of Pharaoh who feared the word of יהוה
made their servants and livestock flee to the houses.
Exod 9:21 But those who did not set their heart on the word of יהוה left their
servants and livestock in the field.
Exod 9:22 Then יהוה said to Mosheh, “Stretch out your hand toward the
heavens, and let there be hail in all the land of Mitsrayim – on man, and on
beast, and on every plant of the field, throughout the land of Mitsrayim.”
Exod 9:23 Then Mosheh stretched out his rod toward the heavens. And יהוה
sent thunder and hail, and fire came down to the earth. And יהוה rained hail
on the land of Mitsrayim.
Exod 9:24 Thus there came to be hail, and fire flashing continually in the
midst of the hail, very heavy, such as had not been in all the land of
Mitsrayim since it became a nation.
Exod 9:25 And the hail smote in all the land of Mitsrayim all that was in the
field, both man and beast. And the hail smote every plant of the field and
broke every tree of the field.
Exod 9:26 Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Yisra’ĕl were,
there was no hail.
Exod 9:27 Pharaoh then sent and called for Mosheh and for Aharon, and
said to them, “I have sinned this time. יהוה is righteous, and my people and I
are wrong.
Exod 9:28 “Pray to יהוה, for there has been enough of the thunder and hail of
Elohim. And I am letting you go, so that you stay no longer.”
Exod 9:29 And Mosheh said to him, “As soon as I go out of the city, let me
spread out my hands to יהוה, let the thunder cease and the hail be no more, so
that you know that the earth belongs to יהוה.
Exod 9:30 “But as for you and your servants, I know that you do not yet fear
before יהוה Elohim.”
Exod 9:31 And the flax and the barley were smitten, for the barley was in
the head and the flax was in bud.
Exod 9:32 But the wheat and the spelt were not smitten, for they were late
crops.
Exod 9:33 And Mosheh went out of the city from Pharaoh and spread out his
hands to יהוה, and the thunder and the hail ceased, and the rain was not
poured on the earth.
Exod 9:34 And Pharaoh saw that the rain, and the hail, and the thunder had
ceased, yet he sinned again and he hardened his heart, he and his servants.
Exod 9:35 And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not let the
children of Yisra’ĕl go, as יהוה had said through Mosheh.

Exod 10:1 And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Go in to Pharaoh, for I have hardened
his heart and the hearts of his servants, so that I show these signs of Mine
before him,
Exod 10:2 and that you relate in the hearing of your son and your son’s son
what I have done in Mitsrayim, and My signs which I have done among them.
And you shall know that I am יהוה.”
Exod 10:3 And Mosheh and Aharon came in to Pharaoh and said to him,
“Thus said יהוה Elohim of the Heḇrews, ‘Till when shall you refuse to
humble yourself before Me? Let My people go, so that they serve Me.
Exod 10:4 ‘Or else, if you refuse to let My people go, see, tomorrow I am
bringing locusts within your borders.
Exod 10:5 ‘And they shall cover the surface of the land, so that no one is
able to see the land. And they shall eat the rest of what has escaped, which
remains to you from the hail, and they shall eat every tree which grows up for
you out of the field.
Exod 10:6 ‘And they shall fill your houses, and the houses of all your
servants, and the houses of all the Mitsrites, which neither your fathers nor
your fathers’ fathers have seen, since the day that they were on the earth to
this day.’ ” Then he turned and went out from Pharaoh.
Exod 10:7 And Pharaoh’s servants said to him, “Till when would this one be
a snare to us? Let the men go, so that they serve יהוה their Elohim. Do you not
yet know that Mitsrayim is destroyed?”
Exod 10:8 And Mosheh and Aharon were brought back to Pharaoh, and he
said to them, “Go, serve יהוה your Elohim. Who are the ones that are going?”
Exod 10:9 And Mosheh said, “We are going with our young and our old,
with our sons and our daughters, with our flocks and our herds we are going,
for we have a festival to יהוה.”
Exod 10:10 And he said to them, “Let יהוה be with you as I let you and your
little ones go! Watch, for evil is before your face!
Exod 10:11 “Not so! You men go now, and serve יהוה, for that is what you
desired.” And they were driven out from the presence of Pharaoh.
Exod 10:12 And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Stretch out your hand over the land of
Mitsrayim for the locusts to come upon the land of Mitsrayim, and eat every
plant of the land – all that the hail has left.”
Exod 10:13 And Mosheh stretched out his rod over the land of Mitsrayim,
and יהוה brought an east wind on the land all that day and all that night.
Morning came, and the east wind brought the locusts.
Exod 10:14 And the locusts went up over all the land of Mitsrayim and
settled within all the borders of Mitsrayim, very grievous. There had never
been locusts like them before, nor would there again be like them.
Exod 10:15 And they covered the surface of all the land, so that the land was
darkened. And they ate every plant of the land and all the fruit of the trees
which the hail had left, and no greenness was left on the trees or on the plants
of the field, in all the land of Mitsrayim.
Exod 10:16 Pharaoh then called for Mosheh and Aharon in haste, and said,
“I have sinned against יהוה your Elohim and against you.
Exod 10:17 “And now, please forgive my sin only this once, and pray to יהוה
your Elohim, that He would only turn away this death from me.”
Exod 10:18 And he went out from Pharaoh and prayed to יהוה.
Exod 10:19 And יהוה turned a very strong west wind, which took the locusts
away and blew them into the Sea of Reeds. Not one locust was left within all
the border of Mitsrayim.
Exod 10:20 However, יהוה hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he did not let
the children of Yisra’ĕl go.
Exod 10:21 And יהוה said to Mosheh, “Stretch out your hand toward the
heavens, and let there be darkness over the land of Mitsrayim, even a
darkness which is felt.”
Exod 10:22 And Mosheh stretched out his hand toward the heavens, and
there was thick darkness in all the land of Mitsrayim for three days.
Exod 10:23 They did not see one another, nor did anyone rise from his place
for three days, while all the children of Yisra’ĕl had light in their dwellings.
Exod 10:24 And Pharaoh called to Mosheh and said, “Go, serve יהוה, only
leave your flocks and your herds behind. Let your little ones go with you
too.”
Exod 10:25 But Mosheh said, “You yourself are to provide us with
slaughterings and burnt offerings, to prepare for יהוה our Elohim.
Exod 10:26 “And our livestock are to go with us too, not a hoof is to be left
behind, for we have to take some of them to serve יהוה our Elohim, and we
ourselves do not know with what we are to serve יהוה until we come there.”
Exod 10:27 However, יהוה hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he would not
let them go.
Exod 10:28 And Pharaoh said to him, “Get away from me! Watch yourself
and see my face no more, for in the day you see my face you die!”
Exod 10:29 And Mosheh said, “You have spoken rightly – never again do I
see your face!”

Exod 11:1 And יהוה said to Mosheh, “I am bringing yet one more plague on
Pharaoh and on Mitsrayim. After that he is going to let you go from here.
When he lets you go, he shall drive you out from here altogether.
Exod 11:2 “Speak now in the hearing of the people, and let every man ask
from his neighbour and every woman from her neighbour, objects of silver
and objects of gold.”
Exod 11:3 And יהוה gave the people favour in the eyes of the Mitsrites. And
the man Mosheh was very great in the land of Mitsrayim, in the eyes of
Pharaoh’s servants and in the eyes of the people.
Exod 11:4 And Mosheh said, “Thus said יהוה, ‘About midnight I am going
out into the midst of Mitsrayim,
Exod 11:5 and all the first-born in the land of Mitsrayim shall die, from the
first-born of Pharaoh who sits on his throne, even to the first-born of the
female servant who is behind the handmill, and all the first-born of cattle.
Exod 11:6 ‘And there shall be a great cry throughout all the land of
Mitsrayim, such as has never been or ever be again.
Exod 11:7 ‘But against any of the children of Yisra’ĕl no dog shall move its
tongue, against man or against beast, so that you know that יהוה makes
distinction between Mitsrayim and Yisra’ĕl.’
Exod 11:8 “And all these servants of yours shall come down to me and bow
down to me, saying, ‘Get out, you and all the people at your feet!’ And after
that I shall go out.” And he went out from Pharaoh in great displeasure.
Exod 11:9 But יהוה said to Mosheh, “Pharaoh is not going to listen to you, in
order to multiply My wonders in the land of Mitsrayim.”
Exod 11:10 And Mosheh and Aharon did all these wonders before Pharaoh,
however, יהוה hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he did not let the children
of Yisra’ĕl go out of his land.
