Exodus 8:17-19

Legacy Standard Bible

¹⁷ And they did so; and Aaron stretched out his hand with his staff and struck the dust of the earth, and there were ^[a]gnats on man and beast. All the dust of the earth became ^[b](A)gnats through all the land of Egypt. ¹⁸ Then ^[c]the magicians did the same with their secret arts in order to bring forth ^[d]gnats, but ^(B)they could not; so there were ^[e]gnats on man and beast. ¹⁹ And the ^[f]magicians said to Pharaoh, “^(C)This is the finger of God.” But Pharaoh’s heart was ^[g]hardened with strength, and he did not listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken.
