Exodus 8:20-32

8:20

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Moses
<04872>_,

Rise up early
<07925> (8685)

in the morning
<01242>_,

and stand
<03320> (8690)

before
<06440>

Pharaoh
<06547>_;

lo, he cometh forth
<03318> (8802)

to the water
<04325>_;

and say
<0559> (8804)

unto him, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

Let my people
<05971>

go
<07971> (8761)_,

that they may serve
<05647> (8799)

me.

8:21

Else, if thou wilt not let my people
<05971>

go
<07971> (8764)_,

behold, I will send
<07971> (8688)

swarms
<06157>

[of flies] upon thee, and upon thy servants
<05650>_,

and upon thy people
<05971>_,

and into thy houses
<01004>_:

and the houses
<01004>

of the Egyptians
<04714>

shall be full
<04390> (8804)

of swarms
<06157>

[of flies], and also the ground
<0127>

whereon they [are]. {swarms...: or, a mixture of noisome beasts, etc}

8:22

And I will sever
<06395> (8689)

in that day
<03117>

the land
<0776>

of Goshen
<01657>_,

in which my people
<05971>

dwell
<05975> (8802)_,

that no
<01115>

swarms
<06157>

[of flies] shall be
<01961> (8800)

there; to the end
<04616>

thou mayest know
<03045> (8799)

that I [am] the LORD
<03068>

in the midst
<07130>

of the earth
<0776>_.

8:23

And I will put
<07760> (8804)

a division
<06304>

between my people
<05971>

and thy people
<05971>_:

to morrow
<04279>

shall this sign
<0226>

be. {a division: Heb. a redemption} {to morrow: or, by to morrow}

8:24

And the LORD
<03068>

did
<06213> (8799)

so; and there came
<0935> (8799)

a grievous
<03515>

swarm
<06157>

[of flies] into the house
<01004>

of Pharaoh
<06547>_,

and [into] his servants
<05650>_'

houses
<01004>_,

and into all the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_:

the land
<0776>

was corrupted
<07843> (8735)

by reason
<06440>

of the swarm
<06157>

[of flies]. {corrupted: or, destroyed}

8:25

And Pharaoh
<06547>

called
<07121> (8799)

for
<0413>

Moses
<04872>

and for Aaron
<0175>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Go
<03212> (8798)

ye, sacrifice
<02076> (8798)

to your God
<0430>

in the land
<0776>_.

8:26

And Moses
<04872>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

It is not meet
<03559> (8737)

so to do
<06213> (8800)_;

for
<02005>

we shall sacrifice
<02076> (8799)

the abomination
<08441>

of the Egyptians
<04714>

to the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>_:

lo, shall we sacrifice
<02076> (8799)

the abomination
<08441>

of the Egyptians
<04714>

before their eyes
<05869>_,

and will they not stone
<05619> (8799)

us?

8:27

We will go
<03212> (8799)

three
<07969>

days
<03117>_'

journey
<01870>

into the wilderness
<04057>_,

and sacrifice
<02076> (8804)

to the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>_,

as he shall command
<0559> (8799)

us.

8:28

And Pharaoh
<06547>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will let you go
<07971> (8762)_,

that ye may sacrifice
<02076> (8804)

to the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>

in the wilderness
<04057>_;

only ye shall not go
<03212> (8800)

very
<07368> (8687)

far away
<07368> (8686)_:

intreat
<06279> (8685)

for me
<01157>_.

8:29

And Moses
<04872>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold, I go out
<03318> (8802)

from thee, and I will intreat
<06279> (8689)

the LORD
<03068>

that the swarms
<06157>

[of flies] may depart
<05493> (8804)

from Pharaoh
<06547>_,

from his servants
<05650>_,

and from his people
<05971>_,

to morrow
<04279>_:

but
<07535>

let not Pharaoh
<06547>

deal deceitfully
<02048> (8763)

any more
<03254> (8686)

in not
<01115>

letting the people
<05971>

go
<07971> (8763)

to sacrifice
<02076> (8800)

to the LORD
<03068>_.

8:30

And Moses
<04872>

went out
<03318> (8799)

from Pharaoh
<06547>_,

and intreated
<06279> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>_.

8:31

And the LORD
<03068>

did
<06213> (8799)

according to the word
<01697>

of Moses
<04872>_;

and he removed
<05493> (8686)

the swarms
<06157>

[of flies] from Pharaoh
<06547>_,

from his servants
<05650>_,

and from his people
<05971>_;

there remained
<07604> (8738)

not one
<0259>_.

8:32

And Pharaoh
<06547>

hardened
<03513> (8686)

his heart
<03820>

at this time
<06471>

also, neither would he let the people
<05971>

go
<07971> (8765)_.
