Exodus 8:1-7 Modern English Version (MEV)

1. Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and say to him, ‘Thus says the Lord: Let My people go, so that they may serve Me.

2. But if you refuse to let them go, then I will plague all your borders with frogs.

3. And the river will swarm with frogs, which shall go up and come into your house, and into your bedchamber, and on your bed, and into the houses of your servants, and on your people, and into your ovens, and into your kneading troughs.

4. So the frogs shall come upon you, upon your people, and upon all your servants.’ ”

5. Then the Lord said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, ‘Stretch forth your hand with your rod over the streams, over the rivers, and over the ponds, and cause frogs to come up on the land of Egypt.’ ”

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

7. The ­magicians did the same with their secret arts and brought up frogs upon the land of Egypt.
