8. Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, "If you pray to the Lord to get rid of the frogs from me and my people, then I’ll let the people go so that they can offer sacrifices to the Lord."
9. Moses said to Pharaoh, "Have it your way. When should I pray for you and your officials and your people to remove the frogs from your houses, courtyards, and fields? They’ll stay only in the Nile."
10. Pharaoh said, "Tomorrow!"Moses said, "Just as you say! That way you will know that there is no one like the Lord our God.
11. The frogs will leave you, your houses, your officials, and your people. They’ll stay only in the Nile."
12. After Moses and Aaron had left Pharaoh, Moses cried out to the Lord about the frogs that the Lord had brought on Pharaoh.
13. The Lord did as Moses asked. The frogs died inside the houses, out in the yards, and in the fields.
14. They gathered them together in big piles, and the land began to stink.
15. But when Pharaoh saw that the disaster was over, he became stubborn again and wouldn’t listen to them, just as the Lord had said.
16. Then the Lord said to Moses, "Tell Aaron, ‘Stretch out your shepherd’s rod and hit the land’s dirt so that lice appear in the whole land of Egypt.’"
17. They did this. Aaron stretched out his hand with his shepherd’s rod, hit the land’s dirt, and lice appeared on both people and animals. All the land’s dirt turned into lice throughout the whole land of Egypt.
