Exodus 9:1-7 - Plague Five: Livestock Death

1 And the LORD said unto Moses, "Go unto Pharaoh and tell him, 'Thus sayeth the LORD God of the Hebrews: send out my people that they may serve me. 2 If thou wilt not let them go but wilt hold them still: 3 behold, the hand of the LORD shall be upon thy cattle which thou hast in the field, upon horses, asses, camels, oxen, and sheep, with a mighty great pestilence. 4 But the LORD shall make a division between the beasts of the Israelites, and the beasts of the Egyptians: so that there shall nothing die of all that pertaineth to the children of Israel.'" 5 And the LORD appointed a time saying, "Tomorrow the LORD shall do this thing in the land." 6 And the LORD did the thing on the morrow, and all the cattle of Egypt died: but of the cattle of the children of Israel died not one. 7 And Pharaoh sent to wete: but there was not one of the cattle of the Israelites dead. Notwithstanding, the heart of Pharaoh hardened, and he would not let the people go.
