which is escaped, which remaineth unto you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which groweth
for you out of the field:
6
And they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants, and the
houses of all the Egyptians; which neither thy fathers, nor thy fathers’ fathers have seen, since the
day that they were upon the earth unto this day. And he turned himself, and went out from Pharaoh.
7
And Pharaoh’s servants said unto him, How long shall this man be a snare unto us? let the men
go, that they may serve the L
ORD
their God: knowest thou not yet that Egypt is destroyed?
8
And
Moses and Aaron were brought again unto Pharaoh: and he said unto them, Go, serve the L
ORD
your God:
but
who
are
they that shall go?
9
And Moses said, We will go with our young and with
our old, with our sons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with our herds will we go; for
we
must hold
a feast unto the L
ORD
.
10
And he said unto them, Let the L
ORD
be so with you, as I
will let you go, and your little ones: look
to it;
for evil
is
before you.
11
Not so: go now ye
that are
men, and serve the L
ORD
; for that ye did desire. And they were driven out from Pharaoh’s presence.
12
And the L
ORD
said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts,
that they may come up upon the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land,
even
all that the hail
hath left.
13
And Moses stretched forth his rod over the land of Egypt, and the L
ORD
brought an east
wind upon the land all that day, and all
that
night;
and
when it was morning, the east wind brought
the locusts.
14
And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the coasts of
Egypt: very grievous
were they;
before them there were no such locusts as they, neither after them
shall be such.
15
For they covered the face of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened; and
they did eat every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left: and there
remained not any green thing in the trees, or in the herbs of the field, through all the land of Egypt.
16
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste; and he said, I have sinned against the
L
ORD
your God, and against you.
17
Now therefore forgive, I pray thee, my sin only this once, and
intreat the L
ORD
your God, that he may take away from me this death only.
18
And he went out from
Pharaoh, and intreated the L
ORD
.
19
And the L
ORD
turned a mighty strong west wind, which took
away the locusts, and cast them into the Red sea; there remained not one locust in all the coasts of
Egypt.
20
But the L
ORD
hardened Pharaoh’s heart, so that he would not let the children of Israel go.
21
And the L
ORD
said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand toward heaven, that there may be
darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness
which
may be felt.
22
And Moses stretched forth
his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days:
23
They
saw not one another, neither rose any from his place for three days: but all the children of Israel
had light in their dwellings.
24
And Pharaoh called unto Moses, and said, Go ye, serve the L
ORD
; only let your flocks and
your herds be stayed: let your little ones also go with you.
25
And Moses said, Thou must give us
also sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice unto the L
ORD
our God.
26
Our cattle also
shall go with us; there shall not an hoof be left behind; for thereof must we take to serve the L
ORD
our God; and we know not with what we must serve the L
ORD
, until we come thither.
