There will be blood throughout the land of Egypt, even in their wood and stone containers.'"

Then the LORD told Moses, "Stretch out your hand over the sea and the water will come back over the Egyptians, over their chariots, and over their horsemen."

Then the LORD told Moses, "Tell Aaron, "Stretch out your hand with your staff over the rivers, over the Nile River, and over the ponds, and bring up frogs over the land of Egypt.'"

You are not to take a bribe because a bribe blinds the clear-sighted and distorts the words of the righteous.
