Exodus 9:1-5 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

1. Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh and say to him: This is what Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, says: Let My people go, so that they may worship Me.

2. But if you refuse to let them go and keep holding them,

3. then the Lord’s hand will bring a severe plague against your livestock in the field — the horses, donkeys, camels, herds, and flocks.

4. But the Lord will make a distinction between the livestock of Israel and the livestock of Egypt, so that nothing of all that the Israelites own will die.”

5. And the Lord set a time, saying, “Tomorrow the Lord will do this thing in the land.”
