Pharaoh then summoned wise men and sorcerers, and the Egyptian magicians also did the same things by their secret arts:
Each one threw down his staff and it became a snake. But Aaron's staff swallowed up their staffs.
Yet Pharaoh's heart became hard and he would not listen to them, just as the Lord had said.

於是法老召了博士和術士來；他們是埃及行法術的，也用邪術照樣而行。
他們各人丟下自己的杖，杖就變作蛇；但亞倫的杖吞了他們的杖。
法老心裡剛硬，不肯聽從摩西、亞倫，正如耶和華所說的。
