08:001

a NAME="1">1 And HaShem said unto Moses: 'Say unto Aaron: Stretch forth thy hand with thy rod over the rivers, over the canals, and over the pools, and cause frogs to come up upon the land of Egypt.

08:002

And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt

08:003

And the magicians did in like manner with their secret arts, and brought up frogs upon the land of Egypt

08:004

Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said: 'Entreat HaShem, that He take away the frogs from me, and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may sacrifice unto HaShem.

08:005

And Moses said unto Pharaoh: 'Have thou this glory over me; against what time shall I entreat for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, that the frogs be destroyed from thee and thy houses, and remain in the river only?

08:006

And he said: 'Against to-morrow.' And he said: 'Be it according to thy word; that thou mayest know that there is none like unto HaShem our G-d

08:007

And the frogs shall depart from thee, and from thy houses, and from thy servants, and from thy people; they shall remain in the river only.

08:008

And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh; and Moses cried unto HaShem concerning the frogs, which He had brought upon Pharaoh

08:009

And HaShem did according to the word of Moses; and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields

08:010

And they gathered them together in heaps; and the land stank

08:011

But when Pharaoh saw that there was respite, he hardened his heart, and hearkened not unto them; as HaShem had spoken. And HaShem said unto Moses: 'Say unto Aaron: Stretch out thy rod, and smite the dust of the earth, that it may become gnats throughout all the land of Egypt.

08:013

And they did so; and Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, and smote the dust of the earth, and there were gnats upon man, and upon beast; all the dust of the earth became gnats throughout all the land of Egypt

08:014

And the magicians did so with their secret arts to bring forth gnats, but they could not; and there were gnats upon man, and upon beast

08:015

Then the magicians said unto Pharaoh: 'This is the finger of G-d'; and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them; as HaShem had spoken. early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh; lo, he cometh forth to the water; and say unto him: Thus saith HaShem: Let My people go, that they may serve Me

08:017

Else, if thou wilt not let My people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies upon thee, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people, and into thy houses; and the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground whereon they are

08:018

And I will set apart in that day the land of Goshen, in which My people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there; to the end that thou mayest know that I am HaShem in the midst of the earth

08:019

And I will put a division between My people and thy people--by to-morrow shall this sign be.

08:020

And HaShem did so; and there came grievous swarms of flies into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants' houses; and in all the land of Egypt the land was ruined by reason of the swarms of flies

08:021

And Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said: 'Go ye, sacrifice to your G-d in the land.

08:022

And Moses said: 'It is not meet so to do; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to HaShem our G-d; lo, if we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, will they not stone us

08:023

We will go three days' journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to HaShem our G-d, as He shall command us.

08:024

And Pharaoh said: 'I will let you go, that ye may sacrifice to HaShem your G-d in the wilderness; only ye shall not go very far away; entreat for me.

08:025

And Moses said: 'Behold, I go out from thee, and I will entreat HaShem that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, tomorrow; only let not Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to HaShem.

08:026

And Moses went out from Pharaoh, and entreated HaShem

08:027

And HaShem did according to the word of Moses; and He removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people; there remained not one

08:028

And Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also, and he did not let the people go
