Exodus 10:5-7

Expanded Bible

⁵ They will cover the [^Lsurface of the] land so that no one will be able to see the ·ground [land]. They will eat ·anything that was [^Lthe last remains] left from the hailstorm and the leaves from every tree growing in the field. ⁶ They will fill your ·palaces [^Lhouses] and all your officers’ houses, as well as the houses of all the Egyptians. There will be more locusts than your fathers or ·ancestors [^Lthe fathers of your fathers] have ever seen—more than ·there have been since people began living in Egypt [or the day they came on the earth until now].’” Then Moses turned and walked away from ·the king [^LPharaoh].

⁷ ·The king’s [^LPharaoh’s] officers asked him, “How long will this man ·make trouble for [^Lbe a snare to] us? Let the ·Israelites [^Lmen] go to ·worship [serve] the Lord their God. Don’t you know [^Lyet] that Egypt is ·ruined [destroyed]?”
