Exodus 8 (NET) New English Translation

1 Then the LORD said to Moses, "Go to Pharaoh and tell him, 'Thus says the LORD: "Release my people in order that they may serve me!
2 But if you refuse to release them, then I am going to plague all your territory with frogs.
3 The Nile will swarm with frogs, and they will come up and go into your house, in your bedroom, and on your bed, and into the houses of your servants and your people, and into your ovens and your kneading troughs.
4 Frogs will come up against you, your people, and all your servants."'"
5 The LORD spoke to Moses, "Tell Aaron, 'Extend your hand with your staff over the rivers, over the canals, and over the ponds, and bring the frogs up over the land of Egypt.'"
6 So Aaron extended his hand over the waters of Egypt, and frogs came up and covered the land of Egypt.
7 The magicians did the same with their secret arts and brought up frogs on the land of Egypt too.
8 Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and said, "Pray to the LORD that he may take the frogs away from me and my people, and I will release the people that they may sacrifice to the LORD."
9 Moses said to Pharaoh, "You may have the honor over me— when shall I pray for you, your servants, and your people, for the frogs to be removed from you and your houses, so that they will be left only in the Nile?"
10 He said, "Tomorrow." And Moses said, "It will be as you say, so that you may know that there is no one like the LORD our God.
11 The frogs will depart from you, your houses, your servants, and your people; they will be left only in the Nile."
12 Then Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh, and Moses cried to the LORD because of the frogs that he had brought on Pharaoh.
13 The LORD did as Moses asked— the frogs died out of the houses, the villages, and the fields.
14 The Egyptians piled them in countless heaps, and the land stank.
15 But when Pharaoh saw that there was relief, he hardened his heart and did not listen to them, just as the LORD had predicted.
16 The LORD said to Moses, "Tell Aaron, 'Extend your staff and strike the dust of the ground, and it will become gnats throughout all the land of Egypt.'"
17 They did so; Aaron extended his hand with his staff, he struck the dust of the ground, and it became gnats on people and on animals. All the dust of the ground became gnats throughout all the land of Egypt.
18 When the magicians attempted to bring forth gnats by their secret arts, they could not. So there were gnats on people and on animals.
19 The magicians said to Pharaoh, "It is the finger of God!" But Pharaoh's heart remained hard, and he did not listen to them, just as the LORD had predicted.
20 The LORD said to Moses, "Get up early in the morning and position yourself before Pharaoh as he goes out to the water, and tell him, 'Thus says the LORD, "Release my people that they may serve me!
21 If you do not release my people, then I am going to send swarms of flies on you and on your servants and on your people and in your houses. The houses of the Egyptians will be full of flies, and even the ground they stand on.
22 But on that day I will mark off the land of Goshen, where my people are staying, so that no swarms of flies will be there, that you may know that I am the LORD in the midst of this land.
23 I will put a division between my people and your people. This sign will take place tomorrow."'"
24 The LORD did so; a thick swarm of flies came into Pharaoh's house and into the houses of his servants, and throughout the whole land of Egypt the land was ruined because of the swarms of flies.
25 Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and said, "Go, sacrifice to your God within the land."
26 But Moses said, "That would not be the right thing to do, for the sacrifices we make to the LORD our God would be an abomination to the Egyptians. If we make sacrifices that are an abomination to the Egyptians right before their eyes, will they not stone us?
27 We must go on a three-day journey into the desert and sacrifice to the LORD our God, just as he is telling us."
28 Pharaoh said, "I will release you so that you may sacrifice to the LORD your God in the desert. Only you must not go very far. Do pray for me."
29 Moses said, "I am going to go out from you and pray to the LORD, and the swarms of flies will go away from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people tomorrow. Only do not let Pharaoh deal falsely again by not releasing the people to sacrifice to the LORD."
30 So Moses went out from Pharaoh and prayed to the LORD,
31 and the LORD did as Moses asked— he removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people. Not one remained!
32 But Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also and did not release the people.

9 And Moses H4872 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto Pharaoh H6547 , Glory H6286 over H5921 PREP-1MS me : when H4970 shall I entreat H6279 for thee , and for thy servants H5650 , and for thy people H5971 , to destroy H3772 the frogs H6854 from H4480 PREP-2MS thee and thy houses H1004 , that they may remain H7604 in the river H2975 only H7535 ADV ?
10 And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , Tomorrow H4279 . And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , Be it according to thy word H1697 : that H4616 L-CONJ thou mayest know H3045 that H3588 CONJ there is none H369 NPAR like unto the LORD H3068 our God H430 .
11 And the frogs H6854 shall depart H5493 from H4480 PREP-2MS thee and from thy houses H1004 , and from thy servants H5650 , and from thy people H5971 ; they shall remain H7604 in the river H2975 only H7535 ADV .
12 And Moses H4872 and Aaron H175 went out H3318 W-VQY3MS from M-PREP Pharaoh H6547 EMS : and Moses H4872 cried H6817 unto H413 PREP the LORD H3068 EDS because of PREP the frogs H6854 which H834 RPRO he had brought H7760 VQQ3MS against Pharaoh H6547 .

14 And they gathered them together H6651 upon heaps H2563 : and the land H776 D-GFS stank H887 .
15 But when Pharaoh H6547 EMS saw H7200 W-VIY3MS that H3588 CONJ there was H1961 VQP3FS respite H7309 , he hardened H3513 his heart H3820 CMS-3MS , and hearkened H8085 not H3808 W-NPAR unto H413 PREP-3MS them ; as H834 K-RPRO the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS had said H1696 VPQ3MS .
