¹⁹ Then the Lord said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, ‘Take your staff and ^(A)stretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, over their ^[a]streams, and over their pools, and over all their reservoirs of water, that they may become blood; and there will be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.’”

¹⁶ As for you, lift up ^(A)your staff and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it, and the sons of Israel shall ^[a]go through the midst of the sea on dry land.
