Exodus 8:1-7 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

1. And Yahweh said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh, and say to him, ‘Thus says Yahweh, “Release my people so that they may serve me.”

2. And if you are refusing to release, look, I am going to plague all of your territory with frogs.

3. And the Nile will swarm with frogs, and they will go up and come into your house and into your bedroom and onto your bed and into the house of your servants and among your people and into your ovens and into your kneading troughs.

4. And the frogs will go up against you and against your people and against all of your servants.’ ”

5. And Yahweh said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, ‘Stretch out your hand with your staff over the rivers, over the canals, and over the pools, and bring up the frogs on the land of Egypt.’ ”

6. And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt, and the frogs went up and covered the land of Egypt.

7. And the magicians did likewise with their secret arts, and they brought up frogs over the land of Egypt.
