Chapter 10 of Exodus—New American Standard Bible (NASB)

  1. ¶ Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh, for 1I have [a]hardened his heart and the heart of his servants, that I may [b]perform these signs of Mine [c]among them,
  2. and 2that you may tell in the [d]hearing of your son, and of your grandson, how I made a mockery of the Egyptians and how I [e]performed My signs among them, 3that you may know that I am the LORD.”
  3. ¶ Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and said to him, “Thus says the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, ‘How long will you refuse to 4humble yourself before Me? 5Let My people go, that they may serve Me.
  4. For if you refuse to let My people go, behold, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your territory.
  5. They shall cover the surface of the land, so that no one will be able to see the land. 6They will also eat the rest of what has escaped—what is left to you from the hail—and they will eat every tree which sprouts for you out of the field.
  6. Then 7your houses shall be filled and the houses of all your servants and the houses of all the Egyptians, something which neither your fathers nor your grandfathers have seen, from the day that they [f]came upon the earth until this day.’” And he turned and went out from Pharaoh.
  7. 8Pharaoh’s servants said to him, “How long will this man be 9a snare to us? Let the men go, that they may serve the LORD their God. Do you not [g]realize that Egypt is destroyed?”
  8. So Moses and Aaron 10were brought back to Pharaoh, and he said to them, “11Go, serve the LORD your God! [h]Who are the ones that are going?”
  9. Moses said, “12We shall go with our young and our old; with our sons and our daughters, 13with our flocks and our herds we shall go, for we [i]must hold a feast to the LORD.”
  10. Then he said to them, “Thus may the LORD be with you, [j]if ever I let you and your little ones go! Take heed, for evil is [k]in your mind.
  11. Not so! Go now, the men among you, and serve the LORD, for [l]that is what you desire.” So 14they were driven out from Pharaoh’s presence.
  12. ¶ Then the LORD said to Moses, “15Stretch out your hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come up on the land of Egypt and 16eat every plant of the land, even all that the hail has left.”
  13. So Moses stretched out his staff over the land of Egypt, and the LORD directed an east wind on the land all that day and all that night; and when it was morning, the east wind [m]brought the 17locusts.
  14. 18The locusts came up over all the land of Egypt and settled in all the territory of Egypt; they were very [n]numerous. There had never been so many [o]locusts, nor would there be so many [p]again.
  15. For they covered the surface of the whole land, so that the land was darkened; and they 19ate every plant of the land and all the fruit of the trees that the hail had left. Thus nothing green was left on tree or plant of the field through all the land of Egypt.
  16. Then Pharaoh hurriedly 20called for Moses and Aaron, and he said, “21I have sinned against the LORD your God and against you.
  17. Now therefore, please forgive my sin only this once, and 22make supplication to the LORD your God, that He would only remove this death from me.”
  18. 23He went out from Pharaoh and made supplication to the LORD.
  19. So the LORD shifted the wind to a very strong west wind which took up the locusts and drove them into the [q]Red Sea; not one locust was left in all the territory of Egypt.
  20. But 24the LORD [r]hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he did not let the sons of Israel go.
  21. ¶ Then the LORD said to Moses, “25Stretch out your hand toward the sky, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even a darkness 26which may be felt.”
  22. So Moses stretched out his hand toward the sky, and there was 27thick darkness in all the land of Egypt for three days.
  23. They did not see one another, nor did anyone rise from his place for three days, 28but all the sons of Israel had light in their dwellings.
  24. Then Pharaoh 29called to Moses, and said, “Go, serve the LORD; only let your flocks and your herds be detained. Even 30your little ones may go with you.”
  25. But Moses said, “You must also [s]let us have sacrifices and burnt offerings, that we may [t]sacrifice them to the LORD our God.
  26. 31Therefore, our livestock too shall go with us; not a hoof shall be left behind, for we shall take some of them to serve the LORD our God. And until we arrive there, we ourselves do not know with what we shall serve the LORD.”
  27. But 32the LORD [u]hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he was not willing to let them go.
  28. Then Pharaoh said to him, “33Get away from me! [v]Beware, do not see my face again, for in the day you see my face you shall die!”
  29. Moses said, “You are right; 34I shall never see your face again!”

    The NWT adds words to the text that are not in the greek Manuscripts to fit it's own doctrinal position for example

    Compare the wording of the NWT and the NKJV at Colossians 1:15-17

    NKJV says

    15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. 17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist.

    NWT says

    15 He is the image of the invisible God,the firstborn OF all creation;16 because by means of him all OTHER things were created in the heavens and on the earth, the things visible and the things invisible,whether they are thrones or lordships or governments or authorities. All OTHER things have been created through him and for him. 17 Also, he is before all OTHER things,and by means of him all OTHER things were made to exist,

    The word “other” is not in the Greek but they add it Why? So they can decieve their followers into thinking that Christ was created by the Father and that he then created other things, that is not what the Greek says.

      Truth is from God and those that follow him. As for lies? John8:44

      Kiamia, I noticed you used a modern version of kjv to make your point about the nwt.

      Why didn’t you use the original kjv of col1:15?

      Is it because it disproves your point? It proves the opposite of what you wrote?

      Here is kjv col1:15 ¶” Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn OF every creature:“

      Now I appeal to your Christian nature to correct your mistake as God is watching each of us, and let us bless the God of Jesus his father.

      Kjv 1Pe 1:3  Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ….

    Joshua, Jehovah’s Witnesses have never denied the deity of the Messiah in his prehuman existence. While on Earth he was fully 100% human. I do not mean he was a mere human, he was not affected by Adam’s unfaithful behavior, he was sinless.

    When i do read some comments and seeing that its the same people that are supposed to be called believers but are talking ill of other denominations, it hurts. Let us all remember that We should judge not

      The bible tells us to test the spirits. Satan disguises himself as angel of light. So yes some denomination are not teaching the truth. You are responsible for judging which ones are not. You have to judge the truth at all times. this is what the bible teaches

    The NWT is a very good translation. Dr. Jason David BeDuhn PhD attests to that in his book Truth in Translation. drive.google.com/...5p16melHzg8/view

      The NWT is Satanic filth to its very core.

      The JW Cult is Satanic to its very core.

      Praise Yahweh I will never be a victim of JW brainwashing. If I burn in Hell for eternity or I am ultimately annihilated so be it

      May Yahweh's curse rest on the Watchtower Society and its Satanic leadership

      NWT is a false translation that takes away from the deity of Jesus !

    Thank you for taking the time to provide this service. I like seeing the NASB on your web page in the same format as I read on paper. On other sites, the text area is smaller, and so I have to keep scrolling down to read and sometimes I lose the context. So I really appreciate the format.

    As far as the NWT, you are certainly free to do whatever you think best with your own web pages. I'd suggest that you make a note anytime you have a translation that is associated with only one denomination or church, for example:
    New World Translation (Jehovah's Witness version).

    In Jesus' parable of the wheat and the tares. the main idea seems to be that you can't easily distinguish between God's people and not-God's people on this earth, so our Lord's response is to wait until they are shown to be the kind of people they are inside. But the NWT seems like false teaching to me. So I think the warning passages from Jesus' apostles are more applicable, as in 2 Peter 3:15-16, when he talks about Paul's writings:
    "There are some things in them that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other Scriptures."
    And we also have the positive exhortations, as in 2 Timothy 2:15:
    "Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth."

      Your suggestion regarding the denominational flagging is duly noted. But I can’t help but wonder, wouldn’t a Catholic also want “Protestant versions” marked as well?

      As for the parable, I’m pretty sure the slaves were convinced in their own minds that they could tell the tares from the wheat. After all, aren’t they the ones who identified the problem in the first place? But the master obviously thought otherwise.

      Furthermore, even at the time when Jesus himself was walking the earth, not everybody who claimed fellowship actually followed him causing John to inquire at Mark 9:39, “Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we tried to prevent him because he was not following us.” But Jesus said, “Do not hinder him . . . for he who is not against us is for us.”

    Hello, question.. why have you included the NWT with other legitimate bible translations? Or why have you not atleast included a warning to readers? Don't you fear that someone could be influenced by the Watchtower's intentional heresies? Thank you.

      Please site these intentional heresies. I am well versed in the watch tower outline and agree they are in many ways incorrect but i also bet i can point many out from EVERY established or main denomination. There is much to learn from them all as one who drinks milk?

      Judge not lest ye be judged, that is not to pass judgement on you either brother.

      I debate with scripture. I don't hold it to be true that Michael is Y'Shua HaMeshiach but I also firmly hold it to be true that our G-d and Heavenly Father are not the word encarnate and only begotten son.

      I love not seeing "lord" which i relate to baal. I feel the catholic church is a satanic establishment and I am aware a freemason started the hovies but there are evil in high places and our fight is also with principalities.

      What i'm saying is that in my darkest hours, those two were some of if not the only ones who would bring a Bible and eucharist and pray with me.

      We all fall short of the glory of G-d.

      Don't forget the NWT was recognized as the most accurate translation on Jeopardy.

      Lastly, this is different I noted than the NWT i have read and am very familiar with. Pull up the watchtower page and compare. I truly look forward to getting this one!
