9 ¹ Then Yahweh Said to Moses, "Go in to Pharaoh, and say to him, 'Thus says Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, "Let my people go, that they may serve me. 9 ² For if you refuse to let them go and still hold them, 9 ³ behold, the hand of Yahweh will fall with a very severe plague upon your cattle which are in the field, the horses, the asses, the camels, the herds, and the flocks. 9 ⁴ But Yahweh will make a distinction between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt, so that nothing shall die of all that belongs to the people of Israel." '" 9 ⁵ And Yahweh set a time, saying, "Tomorrow Yahweh will do this thing in the land." 9 ⁶ And on the morrow Yahweh did this thing; all the cattle of the Egyptians died, but of the cattle of the people of Israel not one died. 9 ⁷ And Pharaoh sent, and behold, not one of the cattle of the Israelites was dead. But the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not let the people go.
