Chapter 9
1
And the LORD said to Moses, "Go to Pharaoh and tell him, 'This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: Send out my people, and let them serve me.'"
2
for if you refuse to send them and you are still holding them.
3
Look, the hand of the LORD will be on your livestock that are in the field: on horses, on donkeys, on camels, on cattle, and on sheep and flocks—a very heavy plague.
4
And the LORD will distinguish between the livestock of Israel and the livestock of Egypt, and nothing will die from all that belongs to the sons of Israel.
5
And the LORD set an appointed time, saying, "Tomorrow the LORD will do this in the land."
6
And the LORD did this thing on the morrow, and all the livestock of Egypt died, but from the livestock of the sons of Israel not one died.
7
And Pharaoh sent, and behold, not even one had died from the livestock of Israel. And the heart of Pharaoh became heavy, and he did not send the people.
