Exodus 7:12 in Context — Exodus 7

10 Moïse et Aaron allèrent auprès de Pharaon, et ils firent ce que l’Éternel avait ordonné. Aaron jeta sa verge devant Pharaon et devant ses serviteurs; et elle devint un serpent.

11 Mais Pharaon appela des sages et des enchanteurs; et les magiciens d’Égypte, eux aussi, en firent autant par leurs enchantements.

12 Ils jetèrent tous leurs verges, et elles devinrent des serpents. Et la verge d’Aaron engloutit leurs verges.

13 Le cœur de Pharaon s’endurcit, et il n’écouta point Moïse et Aaron selon ce que l’Éternel avait dit.

14 L’Éternel dit à Moïse: Pharaon a le cœur endurci; il refuse de laisser aller le peuple.
