2. Mosebok 7,24
22 Men de egyptiske magikerne gjorde det samme med sine hemmelige kunster, og faraos hjerte ble forherdet; han lyttet ikke til Moses og Aron, akkurat som Herren hadde sagt.
23 Farao vendte seg og gikk inn i sitt palass, og tok ikke engang dette til hjerte.
Alle egypterne gravde langs Nilen etter vann å drikke, fordi de ikke kunne drikke vannet fra elven.
25 En uke gikk etter at Herren hadde slått Nilen.
