7
"You shall no longer supply the people with straw for making bricks. They must go and gather their own straw.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 5:1-23

But require of them the same quota of bricks as before; do not reduce it. For they are lazy; that is why they are crying out, 'Let us go and sacrifice to our God.'Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 5:1-23

So the Israelite foremen went and appealed to Pharaoh: "Why are you treating your servants this way?Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 5:1-23

No straw has been given to your servants, yet we are told, 'Make bricks!' Look, your servants are being beaten, but the fault is with your own people."Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 5:1-23
17
"You are slackers!" Pharaoh replied. "Slackers! That is why you keep saying, 'Let us go and sacrifice to the LORD.'Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 5:1-23

And I will bring you into the land that I swore to give to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. I will give it to you as a possession. I am the LORD!'"Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 6:6-13

11
"Go and tell Pharaoh king of Egypt to let the Israelites go out of his land."Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 6:6-13
12
But in the LORD's presence Moses replied, "If the Israelites will not listen to me, then why would Pharaoh listen to me, since I am unskilled in speech?"Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 6:6-13
13
Then the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron and gave them a charge concerning both the Israelites and Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring the Israelites out of the land of Egypt.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 6:6-13

3
But I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and though I will multiply My signs and wonders in the land of Egypt,Read from NKJV · (Exodus) Exodus 7:2-9

And the Egyptians will know that I am the LORD, when I stretch out My hand against Egypt and bring the Israelites out from among them."Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 5 Introduction

9
"When Pharaoh tells you, 'Perform a miracle,' you are to say to Aaron, 'Take your staff and throw it down before Pharaoh,' and it will become a serpent."Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 7:2-9
10
So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and did just as the LORD had commanded. Aaron threw his staff down before Pharaoh and his officials, and it became a serpent.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 7:10-13
11
But Pharaoh called the wise men and sorcerers and magicians of Egypt, and they also did the same things by their magic arts.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 7:10-13
12
Each one threw down his staff, and it became a serpent. But Aaron's staff swallowed up the other staffs.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 7:10-13

Go to Pharaoh in the morning as you see him walking out to the water. Wait on the bank of the Nile to meet him, and take in your hand the staff that was changed into a snake.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 7:14-25
16
Then say to him, 'The LORD, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to tell you: Let My people go, so that they may worship Me in the wilderness. But you have not listened until now.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 7:14-25
17
This is what the LORD says: By this you will know that I am the LORD. Behold, with the staff in my hand I will strike the water of the Nile, and it will turn to blood.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 7:14-25
18
The fish in the Nile will die, the river will stink, and the Egyptians will be unable to drink its water.'"Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 7:14-25
22
But the magicians of Egypt did the same things by their magic arts. So Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he would not listen to Moses and Aaron, just as the LORD had said.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 7:14-25
23
Instead, Pharaoh turned around, went into his palace, and did not take any of this to heart.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 7:14-25
24
So all the Egyptians dug around the Nile for water to drink, because they could not drink the water from the river.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 7:14-25
25
And seven full days passed after the LORD had struck the Nile.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 7:14-25

And the LORD said to Moses, "Tell Aaron, 'Stretch out your hand with your staff over the rivers and canals and ponds, and cause the frogs to come up onto the land of Egypt.'"Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 8:1-15
6
So Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt, and the frogs came up and covered the land of Egypt.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 8:1-15
7
But the magicians did the same thing by their magic arts, and they also brought frogs up onto the land of Egypt.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 8:1-15
8
Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and said, "Pray to the LORD to take the frogs away from me and my people. Then I will let your people go, that they may sacrifice to the LORD."Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 8:1-15
9
Moses said to Pharaoh, "You may have the honor over me. When shall I pray for you and your officials and your people that the frogs (except for those in the Nile) may be taken away from you and your houses?"Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 8:1-15
10
"Tomorrow," Pharaoh answered. "May it be as you say," Moses replied, "so that you may know that there is no one like the LORD our God.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 8:1-15
11
The frogs will depart from you and your houses and your officials and your people; they will remain only in the Nile."Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 8:1-15

14
They were piled into countless heaps, and there was a terrible stench in the land.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 8:1-15

16
Then the LORD said to Moses, "Tell Aaron, 'Stretch out your staff and strike the dust of the earth, that it may turn into swarms of gnats throughout the land of Egypt.'"Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 8:16-19
17
This they did, and when Aaron stretched out his hand with his staff and struck the dust of the earth, gnats came upon man and beast. All the dust of the earth turned into gnats throughout the land of Egypt.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 8:16-19
18
The magicians tried to produce gnats using their magic arts, but they could not. And the gnats remained on man and beast.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 8:16-19
19
"This is the finger of God," the magicians said to Pharaoh. But Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he would not listen to them, just as the LORD had said.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 8:16-19

22
But on that day I will give special treatment to the land of Goshen, where My people live; no swarms of flies will be found there. In this way you will know that I, the LORD, am in the land.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 8:20-32
23
I will make a distinction between My people and your people. This sign will take place tomorrow.'"Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 8:20-32
24
And the LORD did so. Thick swarms of flies poured into Pharaoh's palace and into the houses of his officials. Throughout Egypt the land was ruined by swarms of flies.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 8:20-32
25
Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron and said, "Go, sacrifice to your God within this land."Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 8:20-32
26
But Moses replied, "It would not be right to do that, because the sacrifices we offer to the LORD our God would be detestable to the Egyptians. If we offer sacrifices that are detestable before the Egyptians, will they not stone us?Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 8:20-32
27
We must make a three-day journey into the wilderness and sacrifice to the LORD our God as He commands us."Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 8:20-32

and the LORD did as Moses requested. He removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh and his officials and his people; not one fly remained.Read from KJV · (Exodus) Exodus 8:20-32
