Text[6]="&nbsp;7. When they went back to Pharaoh, Aaron threw down Moses"+aposstr+" walking stick and it became a snake. When Pharaoh"+aposstr+"s magicians threw down their sticks, they also became snakes. But Aaron"+aposstr+"s snake ate up all the other snakes.";

Text[13]="&nbsp;14. Then God told Moses to throw soot up toward heaven. Moses did this while Pharaoh watched.";

Text[19]="&nbsp;20. Pharaoh tried again to make a deal, but Moses said, "+speechstr+"No!"+speechstr+" Then Pharaoh became very angry. "+speechstr+"Get out!"+speechstr+" he said, "+speechstr+"the next time you see me you will die."+speechstr+" Moses and Aaron left and did not come back.";
