Exodus 7:14-19

The First Plague: Water Turned to Blood

14Then the Lord said to Moses, “Pharaoh’s heart is hardened; he refuses to let the people go. 15 aGo to Pharaoh in the morning, as he is going out to the water. Stand on the bank of the Nile to meet him, and take in your hand bthe staff that turned into a cserpent. 16And you shall say to him, ‘The dLord, the God of the Hebrews, sent me to you, saying, “Let my people go, ethat they may serve me in the wilderness.” But so far, you have not obeyed. 17Thus says the Lord, “By this fyou shall know that I am the Lord: behold, with the staff that is in my hand I will strike the water that is in the Nile, and git shall turn into blood. 18The fish in the Nile shall die, and the Nile will stink, and the Egyptians will hgrow weary of drinking water from the Nile.”’” 19And the Lord said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, ‘Take your staff and istretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, their canals, and their ponds, and all their pools of water, so that they may become blood, and there shall be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, even in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.’”
