Then I saw three evil spirits that looked like frogs. They came out of the mouths of the dragon, the beast and the false prophet.They are spirits of demons that perform signs. They go out to gather the kings of the whole world for battle. This battle will take place on the great day of the God who rules over all.
The Nile River will be full of frogs. They will come up into your palace. You will have frogs in your bedroom and on your bed. They will be in the homes of your officials and your people. They will be in your ovens and in the bowls for kneading your bread.The frogs will be on you, your people and all your officials.” ’ ”Then the Lord spoke to Moses. He said,“ Tell Aaron,‘ Reach out your hand. Hold your walking stick over the streams, canals and ponds. Make frogs come up on the land of Egypt.’ ”So Aaron reached out his hand over the waters of Egypt. The frogs came up and covered the land.But the magicians did the same things by doing their magic tricks. They also made frogs come up on the land of Egypt.Pharaoh sent for Moses and Aaron. He said to them,“ Pray to the Lord to take the frogs away from me and my people. Then I’ll let your people go to offer sacrifices to the Lord.”Moses said to Pharaoh,“ You can have the honor of setting the time for me to pray. I will pray for you, your officials and your people. I’ll pray that the frogs will leave you and your homes. The only frogs left will be the ones in the Nile River.”“ Tomorrow,” Pharaoh said. Moses replied,“ It will happen just as you say. Then you will know that there is no one like the Lord our God.The frogs will leave you and your houses. They will leave your officials and your people. The frogs will remain only in the Nile River.”Moses and Aaron left Pharaoh. Then Moses cried out to the Lord about the frogs he had brought on Pharaoh.And the Lord did what Moses asked. The frogs died in the houses, courtyards and fields.The Egyptians piled them up. The land smelled very bad because of them.
