⁴ The third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and springs of water,^(A) and they became blood.^(B)

¹⁰ The third angel sounded his trumpet, and a great star, blazing like a torch, fell from the sky^(A) on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water^(B)— ¹¹ the name of the star is Wormwood.^[a] A third^(C) of the waters turned bitter, and many people died from the waters that had become bitter.^(D)

¹⁷ This is what the Lord says: By this you will know that I am the Lord:^(A) With the staff that is in my hand I will strike the water of the Nile, and it will be changed into blood.^{(B) 18} The fish in the Nile will die, and the river will stink;^(C) the Egyptians will not be able to drink its water.’”^(D)

¹⁹ The Lord said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Take your staff^(E) and stretch out your hand^(F) over the waters of Egypt—over the streams and canals, over the ponds and all the reservoirs—and they will turn to blood.’ Blood will be everywhere in Egypt, even in vessels^[a] of wood and stone.”

²⁰ Moses and Aaron did just as the Lord had commanded.^(G) He raised his staff in the presence of Pharaoh and his officials and struck the water of the Nile,^(H) and all the water was changed into blood.^(I)

⁵ Then I heard the angel in charge of the waters say:

⁷ He said in a loud voice, “Fear God^(A) and give him glory,^(B) because the hour of his judgment has come. Worship him who made^(C) the heavens, the earth, the sea and the springs of water.”^(D)

⁸ I will fill your mountains with the slain; those killed by the sword will fall on your hills and in your valleys and in all your ravines.^(A)

⁵ Then the Lord said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch out your hand with your staff^(A) over the streams and canals and ponds, and make frogs^(B) come up on the land of Egypt.’”
