Exodus 10 (WEBP)

[1] Yahweh said to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart and the heart of his servants, that I may show these my signs among them;
[2] and that you may tell in the hearing of your son, and of your son’s son, what things I have done to Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that you may know that I am Yahweh.”
[3] Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and said to him, “This is what Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, says: ‘How long will you refuse to humble yourself before me? Let my people go, that they may serve me.
[4] Or else, if you refuse to let my people go, behold, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your country,
[5] and they shall cover the surface of the earth, so that one won’t be able to see the earth. They shall eat the residue of that which has escaped, which remains to you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which grows for you out of the field.
[6] Your houses shall be filled, and the houses of all your servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians, as neither your fathers nor your fathers’ fathers have seen, since the day that they were on the earth to this day.’ ” He turned, and went out from Pharaoh.
[7] Pharaoh’s servants said to him, “How long will this man be a snare to us? Let the men go, that they may serve Yahweh, their God. Don’t you yet know that Egypt is destroyed?”
[8] Moses and Aaron were brought again to Pharaoh, and he said to them, “Go, serve Yahweh your God; but who are those who will go?”
[9] Moses said, “We will go with our young and with our old. We will go with our sons and with our daughters, with our flocks and with our herds; for we must hold a feast to Yahweh.”
[10] He said to them, “Yahweh be with you if I let you go with your little ones! See, evil is clearly before your faces.
[11] Not so! Go now you who are men, and serve Yahweh; for that is what you desire!” Then they were driven out from Pharaoh’s presence.
[12] Yahweh said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up on the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land, even all that the hail has left.”
[13] Moses stretched out his rod over the land of Egypt, and Yahweh brought an east wind on the land all that day, and all night; and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.
[14] The locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the borders of Egypt. They were very grievous. Before them there were no such locusts as they, nor will there ever be again.
[15] For they covered the surface of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened, and they ate every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left. There remained nothing green, either tree or herb of the field, through all the land of Egypt.
[16] Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste, and he said, “I have sinned against Yahweh your God, and against you.
[17] Now therefore please forgive my sin again, and pray to Yahweh your God, that he may also take away from me this death.”
[18] Moses went out from Pharaoh, and prayed to Yahweh.
[19] Yahweh sent an exceedingly strong west wind, which took up the locusts, and drove them into the Red Sea. There remained not one locust in all the borders of Egypt.
[20] But Yahweh hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he didn’t let the children of Israel go.
[21] Yahweh said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the sky, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt.”
[22] Moses stretched out his hand toward the sky, and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt for three days.
[23] They didn’t see one another, and nobody rose from his place for three days; but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.
[24] Pharaoh called to Moses, and said, “Go, serve Yahweh. Only let your flocks and your herds stay behind. Let your little ones also go with you.”
[25] Moses said, “You must also give into our hand sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may sacrifice to Yahweh our God.
[26] Our livestock also shall go with us. Not a hoof shall be left behind, for of it we must take to serve Yahweh our God; and we don’t know with what we must serve Yahweh, until we come there.”
[27] But Yahweh hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he wouldn’t let them go.
[28] Pharaoh said to him, “Get away from me! Be careful to see my face no more; for in the day you see my face you shall die!”
[29] Moses said, “You have spoken well. I will see your face again no more.”

Exodus 10:19 “Red Sea” is the translation for the Hebrew “Yam Suf”, which could be more literally translated “Sea of Reeds” or “Sea of Cattails”. It refers to the body of water currently known as the Red Sea, or possibly to one of the bodies of water connected to it or near it.

Young’s Literal Translation

Exodus 10 (YLT)

[1] And Jehovah saith unto Moses, ‘Go in unto Pharaoh, for I have declared hard his heart, and the heart of his servants, so that I set these My signs in their midst,
[2] and so that thou recountest in the ears of thy son, and of thy son’s son, that which I have done in Egypt, and My signs which I have set among them, and ye have known that I am Jehovah.’
[3] And Moses cometh in-Aaron also-unto Pharaoh, and they say unto him, ‘Thus said Jehovah, God of the Hebrews, Until when hast thou refused to be humbled at My presence? send My people away, and they serve Me,
[4] for if thou art refusing to send My people away, lo, I am bringing in to-morrow the locust into thy border,
[5] and it hath covered the eye of the land, and none is able to see the land, and it hath eaten the remnant of that which is escaped, which is left to you from the hail, and it hath eaten every tree which is springing for you out of the field;
[6] and they have filled thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians, which neither thy fathers nor thy father’s fathers have seen, since the day of their being on the ground unto this day,’-and he turneth and goeth out from Pharaoh.
[7] And the servants of Pharaoh say unto him, ‘Until when doth this one become a snare to us? send the men away, and they serve Jehovah their God; knowest thou not yet that Egypt hath perished?’
[8] And Moses is brought back-Aaron also-unto Pharaoh, and he saith unto them, ‘Go, serve Jehovah your God;-who and who are those going?’
[9] And Moses saith, ‘With our young ones, and with our aged ones, we go, with our sons, and with our daughters, with our flock, and our herd, we go, for we have a festival to Jehovah.’
[10] And he saith unto them, ‘Be it so, Jehovah be with you when I send you and your infants away; see-for evil is before your faces;
[11] not so! go now, ye who are men, and serve Jehovah, for that ye are seeking;’ and one casteth them out from the presence of Pharaoh.
[12] And Jehovah saith unto Moses, ‘Stretch out thy hand against the land of Egypt for the locust, and it goeth up against the land of Egypt, and doth eat every herb of the land-all that the hail hath left.’
[13] And Moses stretcheth out his rod against the land of Egypt, and Jehovah hath led an east wind over the land all that day, and all the night; the morning hath been, and the east wind hath lifted up the locust.
[14] And the locust goeth up against all the land of Egypt, and resteth in all the border of Egypt-very grievous: before it there hath not been such a locust as it, and after it there is none such;
[15] and it covereth the eye of all the land, and the land is darkened; and it eateth every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail hath left, and there hath not been left any green thing in the trees, or in the herb of the field, in all the land of Egypt.’
[16] And Pharaoh hasteth to call for Moses and for Aaron, and saith, ‘I have sinned against Jehovah your God, and against you,
[17] and now, bear with, I pray you, my sin, only this time, and make ye supplication to Jehovah your God, that He turn aside from off me only this death.’
[18] And he goeth out from Pharaoh, and maketh supplication unto Jehovah,
[19] and Jehovah turneth a very strong sea wind, and it lifteth up the locust, and bloweth it into the Red Sea-there hath not been left one locust in all the border of Egypt;
[20] and Jehovah strengtheneth the heart of Pharaoh, and he hath not sent the sons of Israel away.
[21] And Jehovah saith unto Moses, ‘Stretch out thy hand towards the heavens, and there is darkness over the land of Egypt, and the darkness is felt.’
[22] And Moses stretcheth out his hand towards the heavens, and there is darkness-thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days;
[23] they have not seen one another, and none hath risen from his place three days; and to all the sons of Israel there hath been light in their dwellings.’
[24] And Pharaoh calleth unto Moses and saith, ‘Go ye, serve Jehovah, only your flock and your herd are stayed, your infants also go with you;’
[25] and Moses saith, ‘Thou also dost give in our hand sacrifices and burnt-offerings, and we have prepared for Jehovah our God;
[26] and also our cattle doth go with us, there is not left a hoof, for from it we do take to serve Jehovah our God; and we-we know not how we do serve Jehovah till our going thither.’
[27] And Jehovah strengtheneth the heart of Pharaoh, and he hath not been willing to send them away;
[28] and Pharaoh saith to him, ‘Go from me, take heed to thyself, add not to see my face, for in the day thou seest my face thou diest;’
[29] and Moses saith, ‘Rightly hast thou spoken, I add not any more to see thy face.’
