The Plague of Boils

⁸ Then Yahweh said to Moses and Aaron, “Take for yourselves handfuls of soot from a kiln, and let Moses toss it toward the sky in the sight of Pharaoh. ⁹ And it will become fine dust over all the land of Egypt, and it will become ^(A)boils breaking out with sores on man and beast through all the land of Egypt.” ¹⁰ So they took the soot from the kiln and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses tossed it toward the sky, and it became boils breaking out with sores on man and beast. ^11 (B)And the ^[a]magicians could not stand before Moses because of the boils, for the boils were on the magicians ^[b]as well as on all the Egyptians. ¹² And ^(C)Yahweh ^[c]hardened Pharaoh’s heart with strength, and he did not listen to them, just as Yahweh had spoken to Moses.
