1 Dixitque Dominus ad Moysen : Ecce constitui te Deum Pharaonis : et Aaron frater tuus erit propheta tuus.

2 Tu loqueris ei omnia quæ mando tibi : et ille loquetur ad Pharaonem, ut dimittat filios Israël de terra sua.

3 Sed ego indurabo cor ejus, et multiplicabo signa et ostenta mea in terra Ægypti,

4 et non audiet vos : immittamque manum meam super Ægyptum, et educam exercitum et populum meum filios Israël de terra Ægypti per judicia maxima.

5 Et scient Ægyptii quia ego sum Dominus qui extenderim manum meam super Ægyptum, et eduxerim filios Israël de medio eorum.

6 Fecit itaque Moyses et Aaron sicut præceperat Dominus : ita egerunt.

7 Erat autem Moyses octoginta annorum, et Aaron octoginta trium, quando locuti sunt ad Pharaonem.

8 Dixitque Dominus ad Moysen et Aaron :

9 Cum dixerit vobis Pharao, Ostendite signa : dices ad Aaron : Tolle virgam tuam, et projice eam coram Pharaone, ac vertetur in colubrum.

10 Ingressi itaque Moyses et Aaron ad Pharaonem, fecerunt sicut præceperat Dominus : tulitque Aaron virgam coram Pharaone et servis ejus, quæ versa est in colubrum.

11 Vocavit autem Pharao sapientes et maleficos : et fecerunt etiam ipsi per incantationes ægyptiacas et arcana quædam similiter.

12 Projeceruntque singuli virgas suas, quæ versæ sunt in dracones : sed devoravit virga Aaron virgas eorum.

13 Induratumque est cor Pharaonis, et non audivit eos, sicut præceperat Dominus.

14 Dixit autem Dominus ad Moysen : Ingravatum est cor Pharaonis : non vult dimittere populum.

15 Vade ad eum mane, ecce egredietur ad aquas : et stabis in occursum ejus super ripam fluminis : et virgam quæ conversa est in draconem, tolles in manu tua.

16 Dicesque ad eum : Dominus Deus Hebræorum misit me ad te, dicens : Dimitte populum meum ut sacrificet mihi in deserto : et usque ad præsens audire noluisti.

17 Hæc igitur dicit Dominus : In hoc scies quod sim Dominus : ecce percutiam virga, quæ in manu mea est, aquam fluminis, et vertetur in sanguinem.

18 Pisces quoque, qui sunt in fluvio, morientur, et computrescent aquæ, et affligentur Ægyptii bibentes aquam fluminis.

19 Dixit quoque Dominus ad Moysen : Dic ad Aaron : Tolle virgam tuam, et extende manum tuam super aquas Ægypti, et super fluvios eorum, et rivos ac paludes, et omnes lacus aquarum, ut vertantur in sanguinem : et sit cruor in omni terra Ægypti, tam in ligneis vasis quam in saxeis.

20 Feceruntque Moyses et Aaron sicut præceperat Dominus : et elevans virgam percussit aquam fluminis coram Pharaone et servis ejus : quæ versa est in sanguinem.

21 Et pisces, qui erant in flumine, mortui sunt : computruitque fluvius, et non poterant Ægyptii bibere aquam fluminis, et fuit sanguis in tota terra Ægypti.

22 Feceruntque similiter malefici Ægyptiorum incantationibus suis : et induratum est cor Pharaonis, nec audivit eos, sicut præceperat Dominus.

23 Avertitque se, et ingressus est domum suam, nec apposuit cor etiam hac vice.

24 Foderunt autem omnes Ægyptii per circuitum fluminis aquam ut biberent : non enim poterant bibere de aqua fluminis.

25 Impletique sunt septem dies, postquam percussit Dominus fluvium.

2535. 'He will pray for you' means that it will thus be revealed. This is clear from the meaning of 'praying'. Regarded in itself prayer is talking to God and at the same time some inner view of the things that are being prayed for. Answering to this there is something akin to an influx into the perception or thought of the person's mind, which effects a certain opening of his internals towards God. But the experience varies according to the person's state and according to the essence of whatever he is praying for. If his prayer springs from love and faith, and if they are wholly celestial and spiritual things about which and for which he prays, something like a revelation is present within his prayer which manifests itself in the affection of the one praying in the form of hope, comfort, or some inward joy. This is why 'praying' in the internal sense means to be revealed. Here such a meaning is all the greater since it is a prophet who, it is said, will pray, and 'prophet' is used to mean the Lord, whose prayer was nothing else than an internal speaking to the Divine, and at the same time revelation. That there was revelation when He prayed is evident in Luke,

It happened, when Jesus was baptized and prayed, that heaven was opened. Luke 3:21.

In the same gospel,

It happened, when Jesus took Peter, James, and John, He went up on the mountain to pray. When He was praying the appearance of His face was altered, and His clothing became dazzling white. Luke 9:28-29.

Also in John, He said when praying,

Father, glorify Your name. Then a voice came from heaven, I have both glorified it and will glorify it again. John 12:27-28.

Here it is evident that the Lord's praying consisted in a talking to the Divine and at the same time in revelation.
