6 Frogs are sent. 13 Moses prayeth, and they die.  17 Lice are sent, whereby the sorcerers acknowledge God’s power. 24 Egypt is plagued with noisome flies.  30 Moses prayeth again.

Afterward the Lord said unto Moses, Go unto Pharaoh, and tell him, Thus saith the Lord, Let my people go, that they may serve me.

And if thou wilt not let them go, behold, I will smite all thy country with [a]frogs:

And the river shall crawl full of frogs, which shall go up and come into thine house, and into thy chamber, where thou sleepest, and upon thy bed, and into the house of thy servants, and upon thy people, and into thy ovens, and [b]into thy kneading troughs.

Yea, the frogs shall climb up upon thee, and on thy people, and upon all thy servants.

¶ Also the Lord said to Moses, Say thou unto Aaron, Stretch out thine hand with thy rod upon the streams, upon the rivers, and upon the ponds, and cause frogs to come up upon the land of Egypt.

Then Aaron stretched out his hand upon the waters of Egypt, and the [c]frogs came up and covered the land of [d]Egypt.

And the sorcerers did likewise with their sorceries, and brought frogs up upon the land of Egypt.

Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, [e]Pray ye unto the Lord, that he may take away the frogs from me, and from my people, and I will let the people go, that they may do sacrifice unto the Lord.

And Moses said unto Pharaoh, [f]Concerning me, even [g]command when I shall pray for thee, and for thy servants, and for thy people, to destroy the frogs from thee and from thine houses, that they may remain in the river only.

10 Then he said, Tomorrow. And he answered, Be it [h]as thou hast said, that thou mayest know, that there is none like unto the Lord our God.

11 So the frogs shall depart from thee, and from thine houses, and from thy servants, and from thy people: only they shall remain in the river.

12 Then Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh: and Moses cried unto the Lord concerning the frogs, which he had [i]sent unto Pharaoh.

13 And the Lord did according to the saying of Moses: So the frogs [j]died in the houses, in the towns, and the fields.

14 And they gathered them together by heaps, and the land stank of them.

15 But when Pharaoh saw that he had rest given him, he [k]hardened his heart, and hearkened not unto them, as the Lord had said.
