And the fish that were in the Nile died, and the Nile became foul, so that the Egyptians could not drink water from the Nile. And the blood was through all the land of Egypt.

So all the Egyptians dug around the Nile for water to drink, for they could not drink of the water of the Nile.

So the frogs will come up on you and on your people and on all your servants."'"
