The Eighth Plague: Locusts

10Then the LORD said to Moses, "Go in to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart and the heart of his servants, that I may show these signs of mine among them,H3068H559H4872H935H6547H3513H3820H3820H5650H7896H226H7130 2and that you may tell in the hearing of your son and of your grandson how I have dealt harshly with the Egyptians and what signs I have done among them, that you may know that I am the LORD."H5608H241H1121H1121H1121H5953H4714H226H7760H3045H3068 3So Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh and said to him, "Thus says the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, 'How long will you refuse to humble yourself before me? Let my people go, that they may serve me.H4872H175H935H6547H559H559H3068H430H5680H4970H3985H6031H6440H5971H7971H5647 4For if you refuse to let my people go, behold, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your country,H3588H3986H5971H7971H4279H935H697H1366 5and they shall cover the face of the land, so that no one can see the land. And they shall eat what is left to you after the hail, and they shall eat every tree of yours that grows in the field,H3680H5869H776H3201H7200H776H398H3499H6413H7604H1259H398H6086H6779H7704 6and they shall fill your houses and the houses of all your servants and of all the Egyptians, as neither your fathers nor your grandfathers have seen, from the day they came on earth to this day.'" Then he turned and went out from Pharaoh.H4390H1004H1004H5650H1004H4714H1H1H1H7200H3117H127H3117H6437H3318H6547 7Then Pharaoh's servants said to him, "How long shall this man be a snare to us? Let the men go, that they may serve the LORD their God. Do you not yet understand that Egypt is ruined?"H6547H5650H559H4170H582H7971H5647H3068H430H3045H2962H4714H6 8So Moses and Aaron were brought back to Pharaoh. And he said to them, "Go, serve the LORD your God. But which ones are to go?"H4872H175H7725H6547H559H3212H5647H3068H430H1980 9Moses said, "We will go with our young and our old. We will go with our sons and daughters and with our flocks and herds, for we must hold a feast to the LORD."H4872H559H3212H5288H2205H1121H1323H6629H1241H3212H2282H3068 10But he said to them, "The LORD be with you, if ever I let you and your little ones go! Look, you have some evil purpose in mind.H559H3068H7971H2945H7200H7451H6440 11No! Go, the men among you, and serve the LORD, for that is what you are asking." And they were driven out from Pharaoh's presence.H3212H1397H5647H3068H1245H1644H6547H6440 12Then the LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, so that they may come upon the land of Egypt and eat every plant in the land, all that the hail has left."H3068H559H4872H5186H3027H776H4714H697H5927H776H4714H398H6212H776H1259H7604 13So Moses stretched out his staff over the land of Egypt, and the LORD brought an east wind upon the land all that day and all that night. When it was morning, the east wind had brought the locusts.H4872H5186H4294H776H4714H3068H5090H6921H7307H776H3117H3915H1242H6921H7307H5375H697 14The locusts came up over all the land of Egypt and settled on the whole country of Egypt, such a dense swarm of locusts as had never been before, nor ever will be again.H697H5927H776H4714H5117H1366H4714H3966H3515H6440H3651H697H310 15They covered the face of the whole land, so that the land was darkened, and they ate all the plants in the land and all the fruit of the trees that the hail had left. Not a green thing remained, neither tree nor plant of the field, through all the land of Egypt.H3680H5869H776H776H2821H398H6212H776H6529H6086H1259H3498H3498H3418H6086H6212H7704H776H4714 16Then Pharaoh hastily called Moses and Aaron and said, "I have sinned against the LORD your God, and against you.H6547H7121H4872H175H4116H559H2398H3068H430 17Now therefore, forgive my sin, please, only this once, and plead with the LORD your God only to remove this death from me."H5375H2403H6471H6279H3068H430H5493H4194 18So he went out from Pharaoh and pleaded with the LORD.H3318H6547H6279H3068 19And the LORD turned the wind into a very strong west wind, which lifted the locusts and drove them into the Red Sea. Not a single locust was left in all the country of Egypt.H3068H2015H3966H2389H3220H7307H5375H697H8628H5488H3220H7604H259H697H1366H4714 20But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not let the people of Israel go.H3068H2388H6547H3820H1121H3478H7971 21Then the LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, a darkness to be felt."H3068H559H4872H5186H3027H8064H2822H776H4714H2822H4959 22So Moses stretched out his hand toward heaven, and there was pitch darkness in all the land of Egypt three days.H4872H5186H3027H8064H653H2822H776H4714H7969H3117 23They did not see one another, nor did anyone rise from his place for three days, but all the people of Israel had light where they lived.H7200H376H251H6965H376H7969H3117H1121H3478H216H4186 24Then Pharaoh called Moses and said, "Go, serve the LORD; your little ones also may go with you; only let your flocks and your herds remain behind."H6547H7121H4872H559H3212H5647H3068H6629H1241H3322H2945H3212 25But Moses said, "You must also let us have sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.H4872H559H5414H3027H2077H5930H6213H3068H430 26Our livestock also must go with us; not a hoof shall be left behind, for we must take of them to serve the LORD our God, and we do not know with what we must serve the LORD until we arrive there."H4735H3212H6541H7604H3947H5647H3068H430H3045H5647H3068H935 27But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let them go.H3068H2388H6547H3820H14H7971 28Then Pharaoh said to him, "Get away from me; take care never to see my face again, for on the day you see my face you shall die."H6547H559H3212H8104H7200H6440H3254H3117H7200H6440H4191 29Moses said, "As you say! I will not see your face again."H4872H559H1696H3651H7200H6440H3254
