The Third Plague: Lice

16 So the Lord said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, ‘Stretch out your rod, and strike the dust of the land, so that it may become¹ lice throughout all the land of Egypt.’ ”

17 And they did so. For Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod and struck the dust of the earth, and ^ait became lice on man and beast. All the dust of the land became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.

18 Now ^athe magicians so worked with their¹ enchantments to bring forth lice, but they ^bcould not. So there were lice on man and beast.
