Exodus 9:8-12
International Children’s Bible
The Boils
8 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “Fill your hands with the ashes from a furnace. Moses, throw the ashes into the air in front of the king of Egypt. 9 The ashes will spread like dust through all the land of Egypt. The dust will cause boils to break out and become sores on the skin. These sores will be on people and animals everywhere in the land.”
10 So Moses and Aaron took ashes from a furnace. Then they went and stood before the king. Moses threw ashes into the air. It caused boils to break out and become sores on people and animals. 11 The magicians could not stand before Moses. This was because all the Egyptians had boils, even the magicians. 12 But the Lord made the king stubborn. So he refused to listen to Moses and Aaron. This happened just as the Lord had said.
