Exodus 8:17 YLT

¹⁵  And Pharaoh seeth that there hath been a respite, and he hath hardened his heart, and hath not hearkened unto them, as Jehovah hath spoken.

¹⁶  And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Say unto Aaron, Stretch out thy rod, and smite the dust of the land, and it hath become gnats in all the land of Egypt.'

¹⁷  And they do so, and Aaron stretcheth out his hand with his rod, and smiteth the dust of the land, and the gnats are on man and on beast; all the dust of the land hath been gnats in all the land of Egypt.

¹⁸  And the scribes do so with their flashings, to bring out the gnats, and they have not been able, and the gnats are on man and on beast;

¹⁹  and the scribes say unto Pharaoh, 'It 'is' the finger of God;' and the heart of Pharaoh is strong, and he hath not hearkened unto them, as Jehovah hath spoken.
