¹ και ειπεν κυριος προς μωυσην λεγων ιδου δεδωκα σε θεον φαραω και ααρων ο αδελφος σου εσται σου προφητης

² συ δε λαλησεις αυτω παντα οσα σοι εντελλομαι ο δε ααρων ο αδελφος σου λαλησει προς φαραω ωστε εξαποστειλαι τους υιους ισραηλ εκ της γης αυτου

³ εγω δε σκληρυνω την καρδιαν φαραω και πληθυνω τα σημεια μου και τα τερατα εν γη αιγυπτω

⁴ και ουκ εισακουσεται υμων φαραω και επιβαλω την χειρα μου επ' αιγυπτον και εξαξω συν δυναμει μου τον λαον μου τους υιους ισραηλ εκ γης αιγυπτου συν εκδικησει μεγαλη

⁵ και γνωσονται παντες οι αιγυπτιοι οτι εγω ειμι κυριος εκτεινων την χειρα επ' αιγυπτον και εξαξω τους υιους ισραηλ εκ μεσου αυτων

⁶ εποιησεν δε μωυσης και ααρων καθαπερ ενετειλατο αυτοις κυριος ουτως εποιησαν

⁷ μωυσης δε ην ετων ογδοηκοντα ααρων δε ο αδελφος αυτου ετων ογδοηκοντα τριων ηνικα ελαλησεν προς φαραω

⁸ και ειπεν κυριος προς μωυσην και ααρων λεγων

⁹ και εαν λαληση προς υμας φαραω λεγων δοτε ημιν σημειον η τερας και ερεις ααρων τω αδελφω σου λαβε την ραβδον και ριψον αυτην επι την γην εναντιον φαραω και εναντιον των θεραποντων αυτου και εσται δρακων

¹⁰ εισηλθεν δε μωυσης και ααρων εναντιον φαραω και των θεραποντων αυτου και εποιησαν ουτως καθαπερ ενετειλατο αυτοις κυριος και ερριψεν ααρων την ραβδον εναντιον φαραω και εναντιον των θεραποντων αυτου και εγενετο δρακων

¹¹ συνεκαλεσεν δε φαραω τους σοφιστας αιγυπτου και τους φαρμακους και εποιησαν και οι επαοιδοι των αιγυπτιων ταις φαρμακειαις αυτων ωσαυτως

¹² και ερριψαν εκαστος την ραβδον αυτου και εγενοντο δρακοντες και κατεπιεν η ραβδος η ααρων τας εκεινων ραβδους

¹³ και κατισχυσεν η καρδια φαραω και ουκ εισηκουσεν αυτων καθαπερ ελαλησεν αυτοις κυριος

¹⁴ ειπεν δε κυριος προς μωυσην βεβαρηται η καρδια φαραω του μη εξαποστειλαι τον λαον

¹⁵ βαδισον προς φαραω το πρωι ιδου αυτος εκπορευεται επι το υδωρ και στηση συναντων αυτω επι το χειλος του ποταμου και την ραβδον την στραφεισαν εις οφιν λημψη εν τη χειρι σου

¹⁶ και ερεις προς αυτον κυριος ο θεος των εβραιων απεσταλκεν με προς σε λεγων εξαποστειλον τον λαον μου ινα μοι λατρευση εν τη ερημω και ιδου ουκ εισηκουσας εως τουτου

¹⁷ ταδε λεγει κυριος εν τουτω γνωση οτι εγω κυριος ιδου εγω τυπτω τη ραβδω τη εν τη χειρι μου επι το υδωρ το εν τω ποταμω και μεταβαλει εις αιμα

¹⁸ και οι ιχθυες οι εν τω ποταμω τελευτησουσιν και εποζεσει ο ποταμος και ου δυνησονται οι αιγυπτιοι πιειν υδωρ απο του ποταμου

¹⁹ ειπεν δε κυριος προς μωυσην ειπον ααρων τω αδελφω σου λαβε την ραβδον σου και εκτεινον την χειρα σου επι τα υδατα αιγυπτου και επι τους ποταμους αυτων και επι τας διωρυγας αυτων και επι τα ελη αυτων και επι παν συνεστηκος υδωρ αυτων και εσται αιμα και εγενετο αιμα εν παση γη αιγυπτου εν τε τοις ξυλοις και εν τοις λιθοις

²⁰ και εποιησαν ουτως μωυσης και ααρων καθαπερ ενετειλατο αυτοις κυριος και επαρας τη ραβδω αυτου επαταξεν το υδωρ το εν τω ποταμω εναντιον φαραω και εναντιον των θεραποντων αυτου και μετεβαλεν παν το υδωρ το εν τω ποταμω εις αιμα

²¹ και οι ιχθυες οι εν τω ποταμω ετελευτησαν και επωζεσεν ο ποταμος και ουκ ηδυναντο οι αιγυπτιοι πιειν υδωρ εκ του ποταμου και ην το αιμα εν παση γη αιγυπτου

²² εποιησαν δε ωσαυτως και οι επαοιδοι των αιγυπτιων ταις φαρμακειαις αυτων και εσκληρυνθη η καρδια φαραω και ουκ εισηκουσεν αυτων καθαπερ ειπεν κυριος

²³ επιστραφεις δε φαραω εισηλθεν εις τον οικον αυτου και ουκ επεστησεν τον νουν αυτου ουδε επι τουτω

²⁴ ωρυξαν δε παντες οι αιγυπτιοι κυκλω του ποταμου ωστε πιειν υδωρ και ουκ ηδυναντο πιειν υδωρ απο του ποταμου

²⁵ και ανεπληρωθησαν επτα ημεραι μετα το παταξαι κυριον τον ποταμον

²⁶ ειπεν δε κυριος προς μωυσην εισελθε προς φαραω και ερεις προς αυτον ταδε λεγει κυριος εξαποστειλον τον λαον μου ινα μοι λατρευσωσιν

²⁷ ει δε μη βουλει συ εξαποστειλαι ιδου εγω τυπτω παντα τα ορια σου τοις βατραχοις

²⁸ και εξερευξεται ο ποταμος βατραχους και αναβαντες εισελευσονται εις τους οικους σου και εις τα ταμιεια των κοιτωνων σου και επι των κλινων σου και εις τους οικους των θεραποντων σου και του λαου σου και εν τοις φυραμασιν σου και εν τοις κλιβανοις σου

²⁹ και επι σε και επι τους θεραποντας σου και επι τον λαον σου αναβησονται οι βατραχοι

¹ Yahweh spoke to Moses, Go in to Pharaoh, and tell him, "This is what Yahweh says, 'Let my people Go, that they may serve me.

² If you refuse to let them go, behold, I will plague all your borders with frogs:

³ and the river shall swarm with frogs, which shall go up and come into your house, and into your bedroom, and on your bed, and into the house of your servants, and on your people, and into your ovens, and into your kneading troughs:

⁴ and the frogs shall come up both on you, and on your people, and on all your servants.'"

⁵ Yahweh said to Moses, "Tell Aaron, 'Stretch forth your hand with your rod over the rivers, over the streams, and over the pools, and cause frogs to come up on the land of Egypt.'"

⁶ Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.

⁷ The magicians did the same thing with their enchantments, and brought up frogs on the land of Egypt.

⁸ Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, "Entreat Yahweh, that he take away the frogs from me, and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may sacrifice to Yahweh."

⁹ Moses said to Pharaoh, "I give you the honor of setting the time that I should pray for you, and for your servants, and for your people, that the frogs be destroyed from you and your houses, and remain in the river only."

¹⁰ He said, "Tomorrow." He said, "Be it according to your word, that you may know that there is none like Yahweh our God.

¹¹ The frogs shall depart from you, and from your houses, and from your servants, and from your people. They shall remain in the river only."

¹² Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh, and Moses cried to Yahweh concerning the frogs which he had brought on Pharaoh.

¹³ Yahweh did according to the word of Moses, and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields.

¹⁴ They gathered them together in heaps, and the land stank.

¹⁵ But when Pharaoh saw that there was a respite, he hardened his heart, and didn't listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken.

¹⁶ Yahweh said to Moses, "Tell Aaron, 'Stretch out your rod, and strike the dust of the earth, that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt.'"

¹⁷ They did so; and Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, and struck the dust of the earth, and there were lice on man, and on animal; all the dust of the earth became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.

¹⁸ The magicians tried with their enchantments to bring forth lice, but they couldn't. There were lice on man, and on animal.

¹⁹ Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, "This is the finger of God:" and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he didn't listen to them; as Yahweh had spoken.

²⁰ Yahweh said to Moses, "Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh; behold, he comes forth to the water; and tell him, 'This is what Yahweh says, "Let my people go, that they may serve me.

²¹ Else, if you will not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies on you, and on your servants, and on your people, and into your houses: and the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground whereon they are.

²² 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 you may know that I am Yahweh in the midst of the earth.

²³ I will put a division between my people and your people: by tomorrow shall this sign be."'"

²⁴ Yahweh 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 corrupted by reason of the swarms of flies.

²⁵ Pharaoh called for Moses and for Aaron, and said, "Go, sacrifice to your God in the land!"

²⁶ Moses said, "It isn't appropriate to do so; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to Yahweh our God. Behold, shall we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, and won't they stone us?

²⁷ We will go three days' journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice to Yahweh our God, as he shall command us."

²⁸ Pharaoh said, "I will let you go, that you may sacrifice to Yahweh your God in the wilderness, only you shall not go very far away. Pray for me."

²⁹ Moses said, "Behold, I go out from you, and I will pray to Yahweh that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people, tomorrow; only don't let Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in not letting the people go to sacrifice to Yahweh."

³⁰ Moses went out from Pharaoh, and prayed to Yahweh.

³¹ Yahweh 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.

³² Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also, and he didn't let the people go.
