| The
Ten Plagues (continued) |
Exodus 8:1-32
The second plague God sent was the plague of frogs
Then
the LORD told Moses to go to Pharaoh again and tell him that the LORD
says to let His people go to serve Him.
But if he refused to let them go the LORD would strike all his
territory with frogs.
The river would bring forth a lot of frogs that would come into their
houses, bedrooms, beds, ovens, and even their kneading bowls. The
frogs would come upon all his people, and servants.
Then the LORD told Moses to tell Aaron to stretch out his hand with the rod over the streams, rivers, ponds, and cause frogs to come up on the land of Egypt. Then the magicians did the same thing with their enchantments, and brought frogs upon the land of Egypt.
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and told them to take away the frogs and then he would let the people go to sacrifice to the LORD.
Then Moses told Pharaoh that the frogs would be destroyed from the houses but would remain in the river only.
The Pharaoh told him tomorrow he would let them go. Moses told him to let it be according to his word.
Then Moses and Aaron left Pharaoh. Moses cried out to the LORD about the frogs and the LORD did according to the word of Moses. The frogs died and the people gathered them in heaps so that the land smelled. But when Pharaoh saw there was relief from the frogs he hardened his heart and wouldn't let the LORD'S people go.

The third plague God sent was the plague of lice.
So the LORD told
Moses to tell Aaron to stretch out his rod, and strike the dust of the
land, so that it may become lice over all the land of
Egypt. Moses and Aaron
did as they were told. Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod
and
struck the dust of the earth, and it became lice on man and
beast. All
the dust of the land became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.
Again the magicians worked with their enchantments to bring forth lice. They could not do it. So the lice on man and beast remained.

The Pharaoh refuses to let the people go.
Then the magicians told
Pharaoh that it was the finger of God. But
Pharaoh’s
heart still grew
hard, and he would not listen to them and refused to let the LORD'S
people go.
The fourth plague God sent was the plague of flies.
Then the LORD told
Moses to rise early in the morning and stand before Pharaoh when he
comes to the water and tell him that the LORD says to let His people
go to serve Him. If
the Pharaoh would not let His people go, He would send swarms of
flies on the Pharaoh and his servants, on his people, and into
their
houses. The Egyptians houses would be full of swarms of
flies, and also on the ground. He also told them that the land
of Goshen where His people lived would have no swarms of
flies there. This was that the Pharaoh would know that HE was
the LORD.
He also told them that tomorrow this sign would happen. The LORD
did what He said He would do. Thick swarms of flies came into the house
of Pharaoh, his servants’ houses, and all the land of
Egypt.
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, “Go, sacrifice to your God in the land.”
And Moses told Pharaoh that is wasn't right to sacrifice in their land because it would be hated by the LORD their God. they told him that if they sacrificed before the Egyptians that they might be stoned. they wanted to go into the wilderness to sacrifice to the LORD as He had command them.
So Pharaoh agreed to let them go into the wilderness, but not very far.
Then Moses told Pharaoh that he would ask the LORD to take away the swarms of flies the next day, but he hoped that the Pharaoh would not be deceitful and break his word.
So Moses left Pharaoh and asked the LORD to remove the swarms of flies from Pharaoh and his servants. But again the LORD took away the plague of flies, but the Pharaoh again hardened his heart and still would not let the LORD'S people go.
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, “Go, sacrifice to your God in the land.”
And Moses told Pharaoh that is wasn't right to sacrifice in their land because it would be hated by the LORD their God. they told him that if they sacrificed before the Egyptians that they might be stoned. they wanted to go into the wilderness to sacrifice to the LORD as He had command them.

So Moses left Pharaoh and asked the LORD to remove the swarms of flies from Pharaoh and his servants. But again the LORD took away the plague of flies, but the Pharaoh again hardened his heart and still would not let the LORD'S people go.
Exodus 9:1-7
The fifth plague God sent was the plague
of the death of all of Egypt's livestock.
Then the LORD
told
Moses to go again to Pharaoh and tell him to let His people go so they
could serve Him. And if he refused to let them go, the hand of the LORD would be on
all their cattle in the field,
the horses, donkeys, camels, oxen, and on their
sheep. There would be a very severe plague among the livestock of
Egypt. But nothing would die that belonged to the children of
Israel. Then the LORD told them that the
next day He would bring this thing upon the land.
So the LORD did this thing on the next day, and all the livestock of Egypt died; but of the livestock of the children of Israel did not die. Still the heart of Pharaoh became hard, and he would not let the people go.
So the LORD did this thing on the next day, and all the livestock of Egypt died; but of the livestock of the children of Israel did not die. Still the heart of Pharaoh became hard, and he would not let the people go.
