Exodus 10:1-6 ▼

1 Then the LORD told Moses, |Go to Pharaoh, for I've hardened his heart and the hearts of his officials in order to perform these signs of mine among them,

2 so you may tell your children and your grandchildren how I toyed with the Egyptians and about my miraculous signs that I performed among them, so all of you may know that I am the LORD.

3 Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and told him, |This is what the LORD God of the Hebrews says: 'How long will you refuse to humble yourself before me? Let my people go, so they may serve me.

4 But if you refuse to let my people go, tomorrow I'm going to bring locusts into your territory.

5 They'll cover the surface of the land so a person cannot see the ground, and they'll eat what is left for you of the residue from the hail. They'll also eat all your trees that grow in the orchards.

6 Your houses will be filled, along with the houses of all your officials and the houses of all the Egyptians—something that neither your fathers nor your ancestors ever saw from the time they were on earth until now.'| Then Moses turned and left Pharaoh's presence.
