Exodus 10:6
Exodus 10:6 in Multiple Translations
They will fill your houses and the houses of all your officials and every Egyptian—something neither your fathers nor your grandfathers have seen since the day they came into this land.’” Then Moses turned and left Pharaoh’s presence.
And they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians; which neither thy fathers, nor thy fathers’ fathers have seen, since the day that they were upon the earth unto this day. And he turned himself, and went out from Pharaoh.
and thy houses shall be filled, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians; as neither thy fathers nor thy fathers’ fathers have seen, since the day that they were upon the earth unto this day. And he turned, and went out from Pharaoh.
And your houses will be full of them, and the houses of your servants and of all the Egyptians; it will be worse than anything your fathers have seen or their fathers, from the day when they were living on the earth till this day. And so he went out from Pharaoh.
They will swarm into your houses and into the houses of all your officials—in fact into the houses of every Egyptian. This is something that none of your forefathers ever saw from the time they arrived in this country.’” Then Moses and Aaron turned and left Pharaoh.
And they shall fil thine houses, and all thy seruants houses, and the houses of all the Egyptians, as neither thy fathers, nor thy fathers fathers haue seene, since the time they were vpon the earth vnto this day. So he returned, and went out from Pharaoh.
and they have filled thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians, which neither thy fathers nor thy father's fathers have seen, since the day of their being on the ground unto this day,' — and he turneth and goeth out from Pharaoh.
Your houses shall be filled, and the houses of all your servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians, as neither your fathers nor your fathers’ fathers have seen, since the day that they were on the earth to this day.’” He turned, and went out from Pharaoh.
And they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians; which neither thy fathers, nor thy fathers' fathers have seen, since the day that they were upon the earth to this day. And he turned himself, and went out from Pharaoh.
And they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of thy servants, and of all the Egyptians: such a number as thy fathers have not seen, nor thy grandfathers, from the time they were first upon the earth, until this present day. And he turned himself away, and went forth from Pharao.
They will fill your houses, and the houses of all your officials, and the houses of all the rest of the Egyptians. There will be more locusts than you or your parents or your grandparents have ever seen, from the time your ancestors first came to this land until the present time!’” Then he/I turned and Aaron and I left the king.

Context — The Eighth Plague: Locusts
4But if you refuse to let My people go, I will bring locusts into your territory tomorrow.
5They will cover the face of the land so that no one can see it. They will devour whatever is left after the hail and eat every tree that grows in your fields.
6They will fill your houses and the houses of all your officials and every Egyptian—something neither your fathers nor your grandfathers have seen since the day they came into this land.’” Then Moses turned and left Pharaoh’s presence.
7Pharaoh’s officials asked him, “How long will this man be a snare to us? Let the people go, so that they may worship the LORD their God. Do you not yet realize that Egypt lies in ruins?” 8So Moses and Aaron were brought back to Pharaoh. “Go, worship the LORD your God,” he said. “But who exactly will be going?”Cross References

Exodus 10:6 Summary
[This verse, Exodus 10:6, shows that God's judgment is not just limited to the outdoors, but it can also affect our personal lives and homes, as seen in the plague of locusts that will fill the houses of the Egyptians. This is a reminder that God is sovereign over all things, including our daily lives, as stated in Psalm 103:19. Just like the Israelites were called to trust in God's power and authority, as seen in Exodus 14:13-14, we can also trust in His goodness and provision, even in the midst of challenges, as seen in Matthew 6:25-34.]
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the significance of the locusts filling the houses in Exodus 10:6?
The locusts filling the houses represent a severe judgment from God, similar to the plague of hail in Exodus 9:13-35, which would have a profound impact on the daily lives of the Egyptians, affecting their homes and their food supply, as seen in Exodus 10:5.
Why does Moses turn and leave Pharaoh's presence after delivering this message?
Moses turns and leaves Pharaoh's presence because he has faithfully delivered God's message, as seen in Deuteronomy 18:18, and now the response is up to Pharaoh, as God is sovereign over the situation, as stated in Proverbs 21:1.
How does this verse relate to the overall narrative of the Exodus?
This verse is part of the larger story of God's redemption of the Israelites from slavery in Egypt, as promised in Genesis 15:13-14 and Exodus 6:6-8, and serves as a reminder of God's power and authority over all nations, as seen in Psalm 135:9-12.
What can we learn from Pharaoh's response to Moses' message in this verse?
We can learn that Pharaoh's hardness of heart, as seen in Exodus 7:13, is a result of his refusal to acknowledge God's sovereignty, as stated in Romans 1:20-21, and that this refusal ultimately leads to judgment, as seen in Exodus 12:12.
Reflection Questions
- How do I respond when faced with the reality of God's judgment, and what does this reveal about my heart?
- In what ways can I, like Moses, faithfully deliver God's message to those around me, even if it is difficult or unpopular?
- What are some areas in my life where I may be resisting God's sovereignty, and how can I surrender to His will, as seen in 1 Samuel 15:22-23?
- How can I trust in God's power and authority, even when faced with seemingly insurmountable challenges, as seen in Exodus 14:13-14?

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Exodus 10:6
And they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians; which neither thy fathers, nor thy fathers' fathers have seen, since the day that they were upon the earth unto this day.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Exodus 10:6
Such for number, or shape, or mischievous effects, as were never seen before.
Trapp's Commentary on Exodus 10:6
Exodus 10:6 And they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians; which neither thy fathers, nor thy fathers’ fathers have seen, since the day that they were upon the earth unto this day. And he turned himself, and went out from Pharaoh.Ver. 6. And he turned himself.] No man may turn himself to go out of the great Turk’ s presence, but must go backward till he be out of the room. Dissension falling out between Queen Elizabeth and the Earl of Essex about a fit man for the government of Ireland, he uncivilly turned his back, as it were in contempt with a scornful look: she, waxing impatient, gave him a cuff on the ear, bidding him come again when she sent for him, &c. But Moses may not be imagined to have so turned himself. Turk. Hist. Camden’ s Elis., fol. 494.
Ellicott's Commentary on Exodus 10:6
(6) They shall fill thy houses.—“They shall run to and fro in the city,” says the prophet Joel; “they shall run upon the wall, they shall climb up upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows, like a thief.” Modern travellers bear abundant witness to the same effect; as Burckhardt: “They overwhelm the province of Nedjd sometimes to such a degree that, having destroyed the harvest, they penetrate by thousands into the private dwellings, and devour whatsoever they can find, even the leather of the water vessels” (Notes, vol. ii., p. 90). And Morier: “They entered the inmost recesses of the houses, were found in every corner, stuck to our clothes, and infected our food” (Second Journey, p. 100). Kalisch is quite correct when he says: “Sometimes they penetrate into the houses; they fly into the mouths of the inmates; they throw themselves on the food; they gnaw leather, and even wood” (Commentary, p. 123). Which neither thy fathers, nor thy fathers’ fathers have seen.—Only one notice of locusts has been found in the native records. He turned himself, and went out.—It seems to be meant that Moses did not on this occasion wait to see what effect his menace would have on Pharaoh. He “knew that Pharaoh would not yet fear the Lord” (Exodus 9:30).
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Exodus 10:6
Verse 6. They shall fill thy houses] Dr. Shaw mentions this circumstance; "they entered," says he, "Into our very houses and bed-chambers, like so many thieves." - Ibid. p. 187.
Cambridge Bible on Exodus 10:6
6. thy houses shall be filled, &c.] Cf. Morier, describing an invasion in Persia (ibid. p. 89), ‘They entered the inmost recesses of the houses, were found in every corner, stuck to our clothes, and infested our food.’ And he turned] i.e. Moses, though Aaron also, according to v. 3, had gone in. See the note on vv. 1b, 2, at the end.
Barnes' Notes on Exodus 10:6
Fill thy houses - The terraces, courts, and even the inner apartments are said to be filled in a moment by a locust storm. Compare Joe 2:9.
