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.

Exodus 10 (KJVS)
[1] And the Lord H3068 said H559 (QalImpf) unto Moses, H4872 Go H935 (QalImpv) in unto Pharaoh: H6547 for I have hardened H3513 (HiphPerf) his heart, H3820 and the heart H3820 of his servants, H5650 that I might shew H7896 (QalInf) these my signs H226 before H7130 him:
[2] and that thou mayest tell H5608 (PielImpf) in the ears H241 of thy son, H1121 and of thy son’s H1121 son, H1121 what things I have wrought H5953 (HithPerf) in Egypt, H4714 and my signs H226 which I have done H7760 (QalPerf) among them; that ye may know H3045 (QalPerf) how that I am the Lord. H3068
[3] And Moses H4872 and Aaron H175 came in H935 (QalImpf) unto Pharaoh, H6547 and said H559 (QalImpf) unto him, Thus saith H559 (QalPerf) the Lord H3068 God H430 of the Hebrews, H5680 How long H4970 wilt thou refuse H3985 (PielPerf) to humble H6031 (NiphInf) thyself before H6440 me? let my people H5971 go, H7971 (PielImpv) that they may serve H5647 (QalImpf) me.
[4] Else, H3588 if thou refuse H3986 to let my people H5971 go, H7971 (PielInf) behold, to morrow H4279 will I bring H935 (HiphPtc) the locusts H697 into thy coast: H1366
[5] and they shall cover H3680 (PielPerf) the face§ H5869 of the earth, H776 that one cannot be able H3201 (QalImpf) to see H7200 (QalInf) the earth: H776 and they shall eat H398 (QalPerf) the residue H3499 of that which is escaped, H6413 which remaineth H7604 (NiphPtc) unto you from the hail, H1259 and shall eat H398 (QalPerf) every tree H6086 which groweth H6779 (QalActPtc) for you out of the field: H7704
[6] and they shall fill H4390 (QalPerf) thy houses, H1004 and the houses H1004 of all thy servants, H5650 and the houses H1004 of all the Egyptians; H4714 which neither thy fathers, H1 nor thy fathers’ H1 fathers H1 have seen, H7200 (QalPerf) since the day H3117 that they were upon the earth H127 unto this day. H3117 And he turned H6437 (QalImpf) himself, and went out H3318 (QalImpf) from Pharaoh. H6547
[7] And Pharaoh’s H6547 servants H5650 said H559 (QalImpf) unto him, How long shall this man be a snare H4170 unto us? let the men H582 go, H7971 (PielImpv) that they may serve H5647 (QalImpf) the Lord H3068 their God: H430 knowest H3045 (QalImpf) thou not yet H2962 that Egypt H4714 is destroyed? H6 (QalPerf)
[8] And Moses H4872 and Aaron H175 were brought again H7725 (HophImpf) unto Pharaoh: H6547 and he said H559 (QalImpf) unto them, Go, H3212 (QalImpv) serve H5647 (QalImpv) the Lord H3068 your God: H430 but who§ are they that shall go? H1980 (QalActPtc)
[9] And Moses H4872 said, H559 (QalImpf) We will go H3212 (QalImpf) with our young H5288 and with our old, H2205 with our sons H1121 and with our daughters, H1323 with our flocks H6629 and with our herds H1241 will we go; H3212 (QalImpf) for we must hold a feast H2282 unto the Lord. H3068
[10] And he said H559 (QalImpf) unto them, Let the Lord H3068 be so with you, as I will let you go, H7971 (PielImpf) and your little ones: H2945 look H7200 (QalImpv) to it; for evil H7451 is before H6440 you.
[11] Not so: go H3212 (QalImpv) now ye that are men, H1397 and serve H5647 (QalImpv) the Lord; H3068 for that ye did desire. H1245 (PielPtc) And they were driven out H1644 (PielImpf) from Pharaoh’s H6547 presence. H6440
[12] And the Lord H3068 said H559 (QalImpf) unto Moses, H4872 Stretch out H5186 (QalImpv) thine hand H3027 over the land H776 of Egypt H4714 for the locusts, H697 that they may come up H5927 (QalImpf) upon the land H776 of Egypt, H4714 and eat H398 (QalImpf) every herb H6212 of the land, H776 even all that the hail H1259 hath left. H7604 (HiphPerf)
[13] And Moses H4872 stretched forth H5186 (QalImpf) his rod H4294 over the land H776 of Egypt, H4714 and the Lord H3068 brought H5090 (PielPerf) an east H6921 wind H7307 upon the land H776 all that day, H3117 and all that night; H3915 and when it was morning, H1242 the east H6921 wind H7307 brought H5375 (QalPerf) the locusts. H697
[14] And the locusts H697 went up H5927 (QalImpf) over all the land H776 of Egypt, H4714 and rested H5117 (QalImpf) in all the coasts H1366 of Egypt: H4714 very H3966 grievous H3515 were they; before H6440 them there were no such H3651 locusts H697 as they, neither after H310 them shall be such.
[15] For they covered H3680 (PielImpf) the face H5869 of the whole earth, H776 so that the land H776 was darkened; H2821 (QalImpf) and they did eat H398 (QalImpf) every herb H6212 of the land, H776 and all the fruit H6529 of the trees H6086 which the hail H1259 had left: H3498 (HiphPerf) and there remained H3498 (NiphPerf) not any green thing H3418 in the trees, H6086 or in the herbs H6212 of the field, H7704 through all the land H776 of Egypt. H4714
[16] Then Pharaoh H6547 called H7121 (QalInf) for§ Moses H4872 and Aaron H175 in haste; H4116 (PielImpf) and he said, H559 (QalImpf) I have sinned H2398 (QalPerf) against the Lord H3068 your God, H430 and against you.
[17] Now therefore forgive, H5375 (QalImpv) I pray thee, my sin H2403 only this once, H6471 and intreat H6279 (HiphImpv) the Lord H3068 your God, H430 that he may take away H5493 (HiphImpf) from me this death H4194 only.
[18] And he went out H3318 (QalImpf) from Pharaoh, H6547 and intreated H6279 (QalImpf) the Lord. H3068
[19] And the Lord H3068 turned H2015 (QalImpf) a mighty H3966 strong H2389 west H3220 wind, H7307 which took away H5375 (QalImpf) the locusts, H697 and cast§ H8628 (QalImpf) them into the Red H5488 sea; H3220 there remained H7604 (NiphPerf) not one H259 locust H697 in all the coasts H1366 of Egypt. H4714
[20] But the Lord H3068 hardened H2388 (PielImpf) Pharaoh’s H6547 heart, H3820 so that he would not let the children H1121 of Israel H3478 go. H7971 (PielPerf)
[21] And the Lord H3068 said H559 (QalImpf) unto Moses, H4872 Stretch out H5186 (QalImpv) thine hand H3027 toward heaven, H8064 that there may be darkness H2822 over the land H776 of Egypt, H4714 even darkness H2822 which may be felt.§ H4959 (HiphImpf)
[22] And Moses H4872 stretched forth H5186 (QalImpf) his hand H3027 toward heaven; H8064 and there was a thick H653 darkness H2822 in all the land H776 of Egypt H4714 three H7969 days: H3117
[23] they saw H7200 (QalPerf) not one H376 another, H251 neither rose H6965 (QalPerf) any H376 from his place for three H7969 days: H3117 but all the children H1121 of Israel H3478 had light H216 in their dwellings. H4186
[24] And Pharaoh H6547 called H7121 (QalImpf) unto Moses, H4872 and said, H559 (QalImpf) Go H3212 (QalImpv) ye, serve H5647 (QalImpv) the Lord; H3068 only let your flocks H6629 and your herds H1241 be stayed: H3322 (HophImpf) let your little ones H2945 also go H3212 (QalImpf) with you.
[25] And Moses H4872 said, H559 (QalImpf) Thou mus§t give H5414 (QalImpf) us H3027 also sacrifices H2077 and burnt offerings, H5930 that we may sacrifice H6213 (QalPerf) unto the Lord H3068 our God. H430
[26] Our cattle H4735 also shall go H3212 (QalImpf) with us; there shall not an hoof H6541 be left behind; H7604 (NiphImpf) for thereof must we take H3947 (QalImpf) to serve H5647 (QalInf) the Lord H3068 our God; H430 and we know H3045 (QalImpf) not with what we must serve H5647 (QalImpf) the Lord, H3068 until we come H935 (QalInf) thither.
[27] But the Lord H3068 hardened H2388 (PielImpf) Pharaoh’s H6547 heart, H3820 and he would H14 (QalPerf) not let them go. H7971 (PielInf)
[28] And Pharaoh H6547 said H559 (QalImpf) unto him, Get H3212 (QalImpv) thee from me, take heed H8104 (NiphImpv) to thyself, see H7200 (QalInf) my face H6440 no more; H3254 (HiphImpf) for in that day H3117 thou seest H7200 (QalInf) my face H6440 thou shalt die. H4191 (QalImpf)
[29] And Moses H4872 said, H559 (QalImpf) Thou hast spoken H1696 (PielPerf) well, H3651 I will see H7200 (QalInf) thy face H6440 again H3254 (HiphImpf) no more.

Exodus 10 (BYZ)
[1] ειπεν δε κυριος προς μωυσην λεγων εισελθε προς φαραω εγω γαρ εσκληρυνα αυτου την καρδιαν και των θεραποντων αυτου ινα εξης επελθη τα σημεια ταυτα επ αυτους
[2] οπως διηγησησθε εις τα ωτα των τεκνων υμων και τοις τεκνοις των τεκνων υμων οσα εμπεπαιχα τοις αιγυπτιοις και τα σημεια μου α εποιησα εν αυτοις και γνωσεσθε οτι εγω κυριος
[3] εισηλθεν δε μωυσης και ααρων εναντιον φαραω και ειπαν αυτω ταδε λεγει κυριος ο θεος των εβραιων εως τινος ου βουλει εντραπηναι με εξαποστειλον τον λαον μου ινα λατρευσωσιν μοι
[4] εαν δε μη θελης συ εξαποστειλαι τον λαον μου ιδου εγω επαγω ταυτην την ωραν αυριον ακριδα πολλην επι παντα τα ορια σου
[5] και καλυψει την οψιν της γης και ου δυνηση κατιδειν την γην και κατεδεται παν το περισσον της γης το καταλειφθεν ο κατελιπεν υμιν η χαλαζα και κατεδεται παν ξυλον το φυομενον υμιν επι της γης
[6] και πλησθησονται σου αι οικιαι και αι οικιαι των θεραποντων σου και πασαι αι οικιαι εν παση γη των αιγυπτιων α ουδεποτε εωρακασιν οι πατερες σου ουδε οι προπαπποι αυτων αφ ης ημερας γεγονασιν επι της γης εως της ημερας ταυτης και εκκλινας μωυσης εξηλθεν απο φαραω
[7] και λεγουσιν οι θεραποντες φαραω προς αυτον εως τινος εσται τουτο ημιν σκωλον εξαποστειλον τους ανθρωπους οπως λατρευσωσιν τω θεω αυτων η ειδεναι βουλει οτι απολωλεν αιγυπτος
[8] και απεστρεψαν τον τε μωυσην και ααρων προς φαραω και ειπεν αυτοις πορευεσθε και λατρευσατε τω θεω υμων τινες δε και τινες εισιν οι πορευομενοι
[9] και λεγει μωυσης συν τοις νεανισκοις και πρεσβυτεροις πορευσομεθα συν τοις υιοις και θυγατρασιν και προβατοις και βουσιν ημων εστιν γαρ εορτη κυριου του θεου ημων
[10] και ειπεν προς αυτους εστω ουτως κυριος μεθ υμων καθοτι αποστελλω υμας μη και την αποσκευην υμων ιδετε οτι πονηρια προκειται υμιν
[11] μη ουτως πορευεσθωσαν δε οι ανδρες και λατρευσατε τω θεω τουτο γαρ αυτοι ζητειτε εξεβαλον δε αυτους απο προσωπου φαραω
[12] ειπεν δε κυριος προς μωυσην εκτεινον την χειρα επι γην αιγυπτου και αναβητω ακρις επι την γην και κατεδεται πασαν βοτανην της γης και παντα τον καρπον των ξυλων ον υπελιπετο η χαλαζα
[13] και επηρεν μωυσης την ραβδον εις τον ουρανον και κυριος επηγαγεν ανεμον νοτον επι την γην ολην την ημεραν εκεινην και ολην την νυκτα το πρωι εγενηθη και ο ανεμος ο νοτος ανελαβεν την ακριδα
[14] και ανηγαγεν αυτην επι πασαν γην αιγυπτου και κατεπαυσεν επι παντα τα ορια αιγυπτου πολλη σφοδρα προτερα αυτης ου γεγονεν τοιαυτη ακρις και μετα ταυτα ουκ εσται ουτως
[15] και εκαλυψεν την οψιν της γης και εφθαρη η γη και κατεφαγεν πασαν βοτανην της γης και παντα τον καρπον των ξυλων ος υπελειφθη απο της χαλαζης ουχ υπελειφθη χλωρον ουδεν εν τοις ξυλοις και εν παση βοτανη του πεδιου εν παση γη αιγυπτου
[16] κατεσπευδεν δε φαραω καλεσαι μωυσην και ααρων λεγων ημαρτηκα εναντιον κυριου του θεου υμων και εις υμας
[17] προσδεξασθε ουν μου την αμαρτιαν ετι νυν και προσευξασθε προς κυριον τον θεον υμων και περιελετω απ εμου τον θανατον τουτον
[18] εξηλθεν δε μωυσης απο φαραω και ηυξατο προς τον θεον
[19] και μετεβαλεν κυριος ανεμον απο θαλασσης σφοδρον και ανελαβεν την ακριδα και ενεβαλεν αυτην εις την ερυθραν θαλασσαν και ουχ υπελειφθη ακρις μια εν παση γη αιγυπτου
[20] και εσκληρυνεν κυριος την καρδιαν φαραω και ουκ εξαπεστειλεν τους υιους ισραηλ
[21] ειπεν δε κυριος προς μωυσην εκτεινον την χειρα σου εις τον ουρανον και γενηθητω σκοτος επι γην αιγυπτου ψηλαφητον σκοτος
[22] εξετεινεν δε μωυσης την χειρα εις τον ουρανον και εγενετο σκοτος γνοφος θυελλα επι πασαν γην αιγυπτου τρεις ημερας
[23] και ουκ ειδεν ουδεις τον αδελφον αυτου τρεις ημερας και ουκ εξανεστη ουδεις εκ της κοιτης αυτου τρεις ημερας πασι δε τοις υιοις ισραηλ ην φως εν πασιν οις κατεγινοντο
[24] και εκαλεσεν φαραω μωυσην και ααρων λεγων βαδιζετε λατρευσατε κυριω τω θεω υμων πλην των προβατων και των βοων υπολιπεσθε και η αποσκευη υμων αποτρεχετω μεθ υμων
[25] και ειπεν μωυσης αλλα και συ δωσεις ημιν ολοκαυτωματα και θυσιας α ποιησομεν κυριω τω θεω ημων
[26] και τα κτηνη ημων πορευσεται μεθ ημων και ουχ υπολειψομεθα οπλην απ αυτων γαρ λημψομεθα λατρευσαι κυριω τω θεω ημων ημεις δε ουκ οιδαμεν τι λατρευσωμεν κυριω τω θεω ημων εως του ελθειν ημας εκει
[27] εσκληρυνεν δε κυριος την καρδιαν φαραω και ουκ εβουληθη εξαποστειλαι αυτους
[28] και λεγει φαραω απελθε απ εμου προσεχε σεαυτω ετι προσθειναι ιδειν μου το προσωπον η δ αν ημερα οφθης μοι αποθανη
[29] λεγει δε μωυσης ειρηκας ουκετι οφθησομαι σοι εις προσωπον
