Exodus 7:22-29 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

22. But the Egyptian magicians did the same by their magic arts. So Pharaoh hardened his heart and would not listen to them, just as the Lord had said.

23. Pharaoh turned away and went into his house, with no concern even for this.

24. All the Egyptians had to dig round about the Nile for drinking water, since they could not drink any water from the Nile.

25. Seven days passed after the Lord had struck the Nile.

26. Then the Lord said to Moses: Go to Pharaoh and tell him: Thus says the Lord: Let my people go to serve me.

27. If you refuse to let them go, then I will send a plague of frogs over all your territory.

28. The Nile will teem with frogs. They will come up and enter into your palace and into your bedroom and onto your bed, into the houses of your servants, too, and among your people, even into your ovens and your kneading bowls.

29. The frogs will come up over you and your people and all your servants.
