Exodus 10

²⁰ But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he would not let the Israelites go.

²¹ Then the LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward heaven, so that darkness may spread over the land of Egypt—a palpable darkness.”

²² So Moses stretched out his hand toward heaven, and total darkness covered all the land of Egypt for three days.

²³ No one could see anyone else, and for three days no one left his place. Yet all the Israelites had light in their dwellings.
