Aaron’s Staff Becomes a Serpent
8 And Yahweh spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying, 9 “When Pharaoh speaks to you, saying, ‘[a](A)Work a miraculous wonder,’ then you shall say to Aaron, ‘(B)Take your staff and throw it down before Pharaoh, that it may become a [b]serpent.’” 10 So Moses and Aaron came to Pharaoh, and thus they did just as Yahweh had commanded; and Aaron threw his staff down before Pharaoh and [c]his [d]servants, and it (C)became a [e]serpent. 11 Then Pharaoh also (D)called for the wise men and the sorcerers, and they also, the [f](E)magicians of Egypt, did [g]the same with (F)their secret arts. 12 And each one threw down his staff, and they became [h]serpents. But Aaron’s staff swallowed up their staffs. 13 Yet (G)Pharaoh’s heart was [i]hardened with strength, and he did not listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken.

Christian Standard Bible
8 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, 9 “When Pharaoh tells you, ‘Perform a miracle,’ tell Aaron, ‘Take your staff and throw it down before Pharaoh. It will become a serpent.’”(A) 10 So Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh and did just as the Lord had commanded. Aaron threw down his staff before Pharaoh and his officials, and it became a serpent. 11 But then Pharaoh called the wise men and sorcerers—the magicians(B) of Egypt, and they also did the same thing by their occult practices.(C) 12 Each one threw down his staff, and it became a serpent. But Aaron’s staff swallowed their staffs. 13 However, Pharaoh’s heart was hard,(D) and he did not listen to them, as the Lord had said.
