Exodus 8:6-22 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

6. And Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up, and covered the land of Egypt.

7. And the scribes did so with their sorceries, and brought up frogs on the land of Egypt.

8. And Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron, and said, Intreat Jehovah, that he may take away the frogs from me and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may sacrifice to Jehovah.

9. And Moses said to Pharaoh, Glory over me, for what time shall I intreat for thee, and for thy bondmen, and for thy people, to cut off the frogs from thee and from thy houses; so that they shall remain in the river only?

10. And he said, For to-morrow. And he said, Be it according to thy word; that thou mayest know that there is none like Jehovah our God

11. And the frogs shall depart from thee, and from thy houses, and from thy bondmen, and from thy people: they shall remain in the river only.

12. And Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh; and Moses cried to Jehovah because of the frogs that he had brought against Pharaoh.

13. And Jehovah did according to the word of Moses; and the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courts, and out of the fields.

14. And they gathered them in heaps; and the land stank.

15. And Pharaoh saw that there was respite; and he hardened his heart, and hearkened not to them, as Jehovah had said.

16. And Jehovah said to Moses, Say unto Aaron, Stretch out thy staff, and smite the dust of the earth, and it shall become gnats throughout the land of Egypt.

17. And they did so; and Aaron stretched out his hand with his staff, and smote the dust of the earth, and there arose gnats on man and on beast: all the dust of the land became gnats throughout the land of Egypt.

18. And the scribes did so with their sorceries, to bring forth gnats; but they could not. And the gnats were on man and on beast.

19. Then the scribes said to Pharaoh, This is the finger of God But Pharaoh's heart was stubborn, and he hearkened not to them, as Jehovah had said.

20. And Jehovah said to Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh--behold, he will go out to the water--and say to him, Thus saith Jehovah, Let my people go, that they may serve me.

21. For, if thou do not let my people go, behold, I will send dog-flies upon thee, and upon thy bondmen, and upon thy people, and into thy houses; and the houses of the Egyptians shall be full of dog-flies, and also the ground on which they are.

22. And I will distinguish in that day the land of Goshen, in which my people dwell, that no dog-flies shall be there; that thou mayest know that I Jehovah am in the midst of the land.
