Exodus 8:16 in Context — Exodus 8
14 Les magiciens employèrent leurs enchantements pour produire les poux; mais ils ne purent pas. Les poux étaient sur les hommes et sur les animaux.
15 Et les magiciens dirent à Pharaon: C’est le doigt de Dieu! Le cœur de Pharaon s’endurcit, et il n’écouta point Moïse et Aaron, selon ce que l’Éternel avait dit.
16 L’Éternel dit à Moïse: Lève-toi de bon matin, et présente-toi devant Pharaon; il sortira pour aller près de l’eau. Tu lui diras: Ainsi parle l’Éternel: Laisse aller mon peuple, afin qu’il me serve.
17 Si tu ne laisses pas aller mon peuple, je vais envoyer les mouches venimeuses contre toi, contre tes serviteurs, contre ton peuple et contre tes maisons; les maisons des Égyptiens seront remplies de mouches, et le sol en sera couvert.
18 Mais, en ce jour-là, je distinguerai le pays de Gosen où habite mon peuple, et là il n’y aura point de mouches, afin que tu saches que moi, l’Éternel, je suis au milieu de ce pays.
