Exodus 10 (résumé): Locusts & Darkness

Next God sent a plague of locusts in all of Egypt because Pharoah continued to resist setting free the Israelites. The locusts devoured what was left of the crops after the hail and they devoured the foliage of the trees. So Pharoah repented of his sin, but soon retracted once the locusts had left. Therefore God sent a plague of darkness over Egypt for 3 days, but the Israelites were not affected. So Pharoah tried to negotiate a partial release of the Israelites, without them taking their livestock, but this was unacceptable to Moses. So Pharoah lost his patience, told Moses to get lost and threatened to kill him if he saw him again.
