MEDITATION
Exodus 8:12-15
12 Then Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh. And Moses cried out to the LORD concerning the frogs which He had brought against Pharaoh.
13 So the LORD did according to the word of Moses. And the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courtyards, and out of the fields.
14 They gathered them together in heaps, and the land stank.
15 But when Pharaoh saw that there was relief, he hardened his heart and did not heed them, as the LORD had said.

沉思
《出埃及记 8：12-15》
12 于是摩西、亚伦离开法老出去。摩西为扰害法老的青蛙呼求耶和华。
13 耶和华就照摩西的话行。凡在房里、院中、田间的青蛙都死了。
14 众人把青蛙聚拢成堆，遍地就都腥臭。15 但法老见灾祸松缓，就硬着心，不肯听他们，正如耶和华所说的。
