WEB·Exodus 7
1Yahweh said to Moses, “Behold, I have made you as God to Pharaoh; and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet.
KJVAnd the LORDH3068 saidH559(H8799) unto MosesH4872, SeeH7200(H8798), I have madeH5414(H8804) thee a godH430 to PharaohH6547: and AaronH175 thy brotherH251 shall be thy prophetH5030.
2 You shall speak all that I command you; and Aaron your brother shall speak to Pharaoh, that he let the children of Israel go out of his land.
KJVThou shalt speakH1696(H8762) all that I commandH6680(H8762) thee: and AaronH175 thy brotherH251 shall speakH1696(H8762) unto PharaohH6547, that he sendH7971(H8765) the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 out of his landH776.
3 I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.
KJVAnd I will hardenH7185(H8686) Pharaoh'sH6547 heartH3820, and multiplyH7235(H8689) my signsH226 and my wondersH4159 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
4 But Pharaoh will not listen to you, so I will lay my hand on Egypt, and bring out my armies, my people the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgments.
KJVBut PharaohH6547 shall not hearkenH8085(H8799) unto you, that I may layH5414(H8804) my handH3027 upon EgyptH4714, and bring forthH3318(H8689) mine armiesH6635, and my peopleH5971 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 by greatH1419 judgmentsH8201.
5 The Egyptians shall know that I am Yahweh when I stretch out my hand on Egypt, and bring the children of Israel out from among them.”

6 Moses and Aaron did so. As Yahweh commanded them, so they did.
KJVAnd MosesH4872 and AaronH175 didH6213(H8799) as the LORDH3068 commandedH6680(H8765) them, so didH6213(H8804) they.
7 Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron eighty-three years old, when they spoke to Pharaoh.

8 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,
KJVAnd the LORDH3068 spakeH559(H8799) unto MosesH4872 and unto AaronH175, sayingH559(H8800),
9 “When Pharaoh speaks to you, saying, ‘Perform a miracle!’ then you shall tell Aaron, ‘Take your rod, and cast it down before Pharaoh, and it will become a serpent.’”
KJVWhen PharaohH6547 shall speakH1696(H8762) unto you, sayingH559(H8800), ShewH5414(H8798) a miracleH4159 for you: then thou shalt sayH559(H8804) unto AaronH175, TakeH3947(H8798) thy rodH4294, and castH7993(H8685) it beforeH6440 PharaohH6547, and it shall become a serpentH8577.
10 Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and they did so, as Yahweh had commanded. Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh and before his servants, and it became a serpent.
KJVAnd MosesH4872 and AaronH175 went inH935(H8799) unto PharaohH6547, and they didH6213(H8799) so as the LORDH3068 had commandedH6680(H8765): and AaronH175 cast downH7993(H8686) his rodH4294 beforeH6440 PharaohH6547, and beforeH6440 his servantsH5650, and it became a serpentH8577.
11 Then Pharaoh also called for the wise men and the sorcerers. They also, the magicians of Egypt, did the same thing with their enchantments.
KJVThen PharaohH6547 also calledH7121(H8799) the wise menH2450 and the sorcerersH3784(H8764): now the magiciansH2748 of EgyptH4714, they also didH6213(H8799) in like mannerH3651 with their enchantmentsH3858.
12 For they each cast down their rods, and they became serpents; but Aaron’s rod swallowed up their rods.
KJVFor they cast downH7993(H8686) every manH376 his rodH4294, and they became serpentsH8577: but Aaron'sH175 rodH4294 swallowed upH1104(H8799) their rodsH4294.
13 Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he didn’t listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken.
KJVAnd he hardenedH2388(H8799) Pharaoh'sH6547 heartH3820, that he hearkenedH8085(H8804) not unto them; as the LORDH3068 had saidH1696(H8765).
14 Yahweh said to Moses, “Pharaoh’s heart is stubborn. He refuses to let the people go.
KJVAnd the LORDH3068 saidH559(H8799) unto MosesH4872, Pharaoh'sH6547 heartH3820 is hardenedH3515, he refusethH3985(H8765) to let the peopleH5971 goH7971(H8763).
15 Go to Pharaoh in the morning. Behold, he is going out to the water. You shall stand by the river’s bank to meet him. You shall take the rod which was turned to a serpent in your hand.
KJVGetH3212(H8798) thee unto PharaohH6547 in the morningH1242; lo, he goeth outH3318(H8802) unto the waterH4325; and thou shalt standH5324(H8738) by the river'sH2975 brinkH8193 against he comeH7125(H8800); and the rodH4294 which was turnedH2015(H8738) to a serpentH5175 shalt thou takeH3947(H8799) in thine handH3027.
16 You shall tell him, ‘Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to you, saying, “Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness. Behold, until now you haven’t listened.”
KJVAnd thou shalt sayH559(H8804) unto him, The LORDH3068 GodH430 of the HebrewsH5680 hath sentH7971(H8804) me unto thee, sayingH559(H8800), Let my peopleH5971 goH7971(H8761), that they may serveH5647(H8799) me in the wildernessH4057: and, behold, hithertoH3541 thou wouldest not hearH8085(H8804).
17 Yahweh says, “In this you shall know that I am Yahweh. Behold: I will strike with the rod that is in my hand on the waters which are in the river, and they shall be turned to blood.
KJVThus saithH559(H8804) the LORDH3068, In this thou shalt knowH3045(H8799) that I am the LORDH3068: behold, I will smiteH5221(H8688) with the rodH4294 that is in mine handH3027 upon the watersH4325 which are in the riverH2975, and they shall be turnedH2015(H8738) to bloodH1818.
18 The fish that are in the river will die and the river will become foul. The Egyptians will loathe to drink water from the river.”’”
KJVAnd the fishH1710 that is in the riverH2975 shall dieH4191(H8799), and the riverH2975 shall stinkH887(H8804); and the EgyptiansH4714 shall lotheH3811(H8738) to drinkH8354(H8800) of the waterH4325 of the riverH2975.
19 Yahweh said to Moses, “Tell Aaron, ‘Take your rod, and stretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, over their streams, and over their pools, and over all their ponds of water, that they may become blood. There will be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.’”
KJVAnd the LORDH3068 spakeH559(H8799) unto MosesH4872, SayH559(H8798) unto AaronH175, TakeH3947(H8798) thy rodH4294, and stretch outH5186(H8798) thine handH3027 upon the watersH4325 of EgyptH4714, upon their streamsH5104, upon their riversH2975, and upon their pondsH98, and upon all their poolsH4723 of waterH4325, that they may become bloodH1818; and that there may be bloodH1818 throughout all the landH776 of EgyptH4714, both in vessels of woodH6086, and in vessels of stoneH68.
20 Moses and Aaron did so, as Yahweh commanded; and he lifted up the rod, and struck the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh, and in the sight of his servants; and all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood.
KJVAnd MosesH4872 and AaronH175 didH6213(H8799) so, as the LORDH3068 commandedH6680(H8765); and he lifted upH7311(H8686) the rodH4294, and smoteH5221(H8686) the watersH4325 that were in the riverH2975, in the sightH5869 of PharaohH6547, and in the sightH5869 of his servantsH5650; and all the watersH4325 that were in the riverH2975 were turnedH2015(H8735) to bloodH1818.
21 The fish that were in the river died. The river became foul. The Egyptians couldn’t drink water from the river. The blood was throughout all the land of Egypt.
KJVAnd the fishH1710 that was in the riverH2975 diedH4191(H8804); and the riverH2975 stankH887(H8799), and the EgyptiansH4714 couldH3201(H8804) not drinkH8354(H8800) of the waterH4325 of the riverH2975; and there was bloodH1818 throughout all the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
22 The magicians of Egypt did the same thing with their enchantments. So Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he didn’t listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken.
KJVAnd the magiciansH2748 of EgyptH4714 didH6213(H8799) so with their enchantmentsH3909: and Pharaoh'sH6547 heartH3820 was hardenedH2388(H8799), neither did he hearkenH8085(H8804) unto them; as the LORDH3068 had saidH1696(H8765).
23 Pharaoh turned and went into his house, and he didn’t even take this to heart.
KJVAnd PharaohH6547 turnedH6437(H8799) and wentH935(H8799) into his houseH1004, neither did he setH7896(H8804) his heartH3820 to thisH2063 also.
24 All the Egyptians dug around the river for water to drink; for they couldn’t drink the river water.
KJVAnd all the EgyptiansH4714 diggedH2658(H8799) round aboutH5439 the riverH2975 for waterH4325 to drinkH8354(H8800); for they couldH3201(H8804) not drinkH8354(H8800) of the waterH4325 of the riverH2975.
25 Seven days were fulfilled, after Yahweh had struck the river.
KJVAnd sevenH7651 daysH3117 were fulfilledH4390(H8735), afterH310 that the LORDH3068 had smittenH5221(H8687) the riverH2975.
