AND Iehovah said unto Moses; Goe in unto Pharaoh, for I have made [unspec 1] heavie his heart, and the heart of his seruants, that I may set these my signes in the midst of him. And that thou maist tell [unspec 2] in the eares of thy sonne, and of thy sonnes so••••e; the things which I have wrought in Egypt, and my signes which I have put a∣mongst them; and that ye may know that I am Iehovah. And Moses and Aaron came in unto Pharaoh, and sayd unto him, Thus [unspec 3] saith Iehovah, the God of the Hebrewes; How long re••usest thou to humble thy selfe before mee? Send away my people, that they may serve mee. For if thou refuse to send away my people, behold, I bring to [unspec 4] morrow the Locusts into thy coast. And they shall cover the eye of the earth, and one shall not bee able to see the earth: and they shall eate the residue of that which is escaped, which remaineth unto you from the haile; and shall eate every tree which groweth for you, out of the field. And they [unspec] shall fill thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of al the Egyptians; which thy fathers, and thy fathers fathers have not seene, since the day that they were upon the earth, unto this day: and he turned himselfe, and went out from Pharaoh. And [unspec] Pharaohs servants said unto him, How long shall this man be a snare unto us? send away the men, that they may serve Iehovah their God: knowest thou not yet that Egypt is destroyed? And Moses and Aaron were [unspec] brought againe unto Pharaoh; and hee said unto them, Goe serve Iehovah your God: who and who, are they that shall goe? And [unspec] Moses said, We will goe, with our yong and with our old, with our sonnes and with our daughters, with our flockes and with our herds, will we goe, for we have a feast of Ie∣hovah. And he said unto them, Let Ieho∣vah be so with you, as I will send away you, and your little ones: see to it, for evill is be∣fore your faces. Not so; goe now yee men, [unspec] and serve Iehovah, for that you did request: and he drove them out from Pharaohs pre∣sence. And Iehovah sayd unto Moses; Stretch out thy hand over the land of E∣gypt, for the Locusts, that they may come up upon the land of Egypt, and eate every herbe of the land, all that the haile hath left. And Moses streched out his rodde over the [unspec] land of Egypt, and Iehovah brought an East wind upon the land, all that day, and all the night: the morning was, and the East wind brought up the Locusts. And the Locusts [unspec] went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the coasts of Egypt, exceeding heavie; before them there were no such Locusts as they, and after them shall no such be. And they covered the eye of all [unspec] the earth, and the land was darkned; and they did eate every herbe of the land, and all the fruit of the trees, which the haile had left; and there remained not any greene thing in the trees, or in the herbes of the field, in all the land of Egypt. And Pha∣raoh [unspec] hastened to call for Moses and for Aa∣ron; and he said, I have sinned against Ie∣hovah your God, and against you. And now [unspec] forgive I pray thee my sinne, onely this once, and intreat ye Iehovah your God, that he may take away from me this death only. And he went out from Pharaoh, and intrea∣ted [unspec] Iehovah. And Iehovah turned a ve∣hement strong sea wind, and tooke away the
