But if you (A)refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all your territory with (B)frogs. So the river shall bring forth frogs abundantly, which shall go up and come into your house, into your (C)bedroom, on your bed, into the houses of your servants, on your people, into your ovens, and into your kneading bowls. And the frogs shall come up on you, on your people, and on all your servants.” ’ ”

Then the Lord spoke to Moses, “Say to Aaron, (D)‘Stretch out your hand with your rod over the streams, over the rivers, and over the ponds, and cause frogs to come up on the land of Egypt.’ ” So Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt, and (E)the frogs came up and covered the land of Egypt.
