Exodus 7:19-21 And Yahweh said unto Moses,––Say unto Aaron––Take thy staff, and stretch forth thy hand over the waters of Egypt, over their streams, over their rivers, and over their pools, and over all their collections of water––that they may become blood,––so shall there be blood, in all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood, and in vessels of stone.

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁹ And Yahweh said unto Moses,––Say unto Aaron––Take thy staff, and stretch forth thy hand over the waters of Egypt, over their streams, over their rivers, and over their pools, and over all their collections of water––that they may become blood,––so shall there be blood, in all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood, and in vessels of stone. ²⁰ And Moses and Aaron, did so, as Yahweh commanded, and he lifted high the staff, and smote the waters which were in the river, before the eyes of Pharaoh, and before the eyes of his servants,––and all the waters which were in the river, were turned to blood; ²¹ and, the fish that was in the river, died, and the river, became loathsome, so that the Egyptians could not drink water out of the river,––thus came it to pass that blood was in all the land of Egypt.
