Exodus 8:20-22

Christian Standard Bible

The Fourth Plague: Swarms of Flies

²⁰ The Lord said to Moses, “Get up early in the morning and present yourself to Pharaoh when you see him going out to the water. Tell him: This is what the Lord says: Let my people go, so that they may worship^[a] me.^{(A) 21} But if you will not let my people go, then I will send swarms of flies^[b] against you, your officials, your people, and your houses. The Egyptians’ houses will swarm with flies, and so will the land where they live.^{[c] 22} But on that day I will give special treatment to the land of Goshen, where my people are living;^(B) no flies will be there. This way you will know that I, the Lord, am in the land.
