Exodus 9

1Then Jehovah saidH559 unto MosesH4872, GoH935 in unto PharaohH6547, and tell him, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah, the GodH430 of the HebrewsH5680, Let my peopleH5971 goH935, that they may serveH5647 me. 2For if thou refuse to let them goH7971, and wilt holdH2388 them stillH5750, 3behold, the handH3027 of Jehovah is upon thy cattleH1241 which are in the fieldH7704, upon the horsesH5483, upon the asses, upon the camelsH1581, upon the herdsH1241, and upon the flocksH6629: there shall beH1961 a veryH3966 grievous murrain. 4And Jehovah shall make a distinction between the cattle of IsraelH3478 and the cattle of EgyptH4714; and there shall nothing dieH4191 of all that belongeth to the children of IsraelH3478. 5And Jehovah appointedH4150 a setH7760 timeH4150, sayingH559, To-morrow Jehovah shall do this thingH1697 in the landH776. 6And Jehovah did that thingH1697 on the morrow; and all the cattle of EgyptH4713 diedH4191; but of the cattle of the children of IsraelH3478 diedH4191 not oneH259. 7And PharaohH6547 sentH7971, and, behold, there was not so much as oneH259 of the cattle of the Israelites deadH4191. But the heartH3820 of PharaohH6547 was stubborn, and he did not let the peopleH5971 goH7971.

8And Jehovah saidH559 unto MosesH4872 and unto AaronH175, TakeH3947 to you handfuls of ashes of the furnaceH3536, and let MosesH4872 sprinkleH2236 it toward heavenH8064 in the sight of PharaohH6547. 9And it shall becomeH1961 small dustH80 over all the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and shall beH1961 a boilH7822 breakingH6524 forth with blains upon manH120 and upon beast, throughout all the landH776 of EgyptH4714. 10And they tookH3947 ashes of the furnaceH3536, and stoodH5975 before PharaohH6547; and MosesH4872 sprinkledH2236 it up toward heavenH8064; and it becameH1961 a boilH7822 breakingH6524 forth with blains upon manH120 and upon beast. 11And the magiciansH2748 could not standH5975 before MosesH4872 because of the boilsH7822; for the boilsH7822 wereH1961 upon the magiciansH2748, and upon all the EgyptiansH4713. 12And Jehovah hardened the heartH3820 of PharaohH6547, and he hearkened not unto them, as Jehovah had spokenH1696 unto MosesH4872.

13And Jehovah saidH559 unto MosesH4872, RiseH7925 up earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and standH3320 before PharaohH6547, and sayH559 unto him, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah, the GodH430 of the HebrewsH5680, Let my peopleH5971 goH7971, that they may serveH5647 me. 14For I will this timeH6471 sendH7971 all my plaguesH4046 upon thy heartH3820, and upon thy servantsH5650, and upon thy peopleH5971; that thou mayest knowH3045 that there is none like me in all the earthH776. 15For nowH6258 I had put forthH7971 my handH3027, and smitten thee and thy peopleH5971 with pestilenceH1698, and thou hadst been cut off from the earthH776: 16but in very deed for this cause have I made thee to standH5975, to showH7200 thee my powerH3581, and that my nameH8034 may be declared throughout all the earthH776. 17As yetH5750 exaltest thou thyself against my peopleH5971, that thou wilt not let them goH7971? 18Behold, to-morrow about this timeH6256 I will cause it to rainH4305 a veryH3966 grievous hailH1259, such as hath not beenH1961 in EgyptH4714 since the dayH3117 it wasH1961 foundedH3245 even until nowH6258. 19NowH6258 thereforeH6258 sendH7971, hasten in thy cattleH929 and all that thou hast in the fieldH7704; for every manH120 and beast that shall be foundH4672 in the fieldH7704, and shall not be broughtH3381 home, the hailH1259 shall comeH3381 down upon them, and they shall dieH4191. 20He that fearedH3372 the wordH1697 of Jehovah among the servantsH5650 of PharaohH6547 made his servantsH5650 and his cattle fleeH5127 into the housesH1004: 21and he that regarded not the wordH1697 of Jehovah leftH5800 his servantsH5650 and his cattle in the fieldH7704.

22And Jehovah saidH559 unto MosesH4872, StretchH5186 forth thy handH3027 toward heavenH8064, that there may beH1961 hailH1259 in all the landH776 of EgyptH4714, upon manH120, and upon beast, and upon every herb of the fieldH7704, throughout the landH776 of EgyptH4714. 23And MosesH4872 stretchedH5186 forth his rodH4294 toward heavenH8064: and Jehovah sent thunderH6963 and hailH1259, and fireH784 ran downH5186 unto the earthH776; and Jehovah rainedH4305 hailH1259 upon the landH776 of EgyptH4714. 24So there wasH1961 hailH1259, and fireH784 mingled with the hailH1259, veryH3966 grievous, such as had not beenH1961 in all the landH776 of EgyptH4714 since it becameH1961 a nationH1471. 25And the hailH1259 smote throughout all the landH776 of EgyptH4714 all that was in the fieldH7704, both manH120 and beast; and the hailH1259 smote every herb of the fieldH7704, and brake every treeH6086 of the fieldH7704. 26OnlyH7535 in the landH776 of GoshenH1657, whereH834 the children of IsraelH3478 were, wasH1961 there no hailH1259.

27And PharaohH6547 sentH7971, and calledH7121 for MosesH4872 and AaronH175, and saidH559 unto them, I have sinnedH2398 this timeH6471: Jehovah is righteousH6662, and I and my peopleH5971 are wickedH7563. 28EntreatH6279 Jehovah; for there hath beenH1961 enoughH7227 of these mighty thunderings and hailH1259; and I will let you goH7971, and ye shall stay no longer. 29And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto him, As soon as I amH1961 goneH3318 out of the cityH5892, I will spreadH6566 abroad my handsH3709 unto Jehovah; the thunders shall ceaseH2308, neither shall there beH1961 any more hailH1259; that thou mayest knowH3045 that the earthH776 is Jehovah’s. 30But as for thee and thy servantsH5650, I knowH3045 that ye will not yet fearH3372 Jehovah GodH430. 31And the flaxH6594 and the barleyH8184 were smitten: for the barleyH8184 was in the earH24, and the flaxH6594 was in bloom. 32But the wheatH2406 and the speltH3698 were not smitten: for they were not grown up. 33And MosesH4872 wentH3318 out of the cityH5892 from PharaohH6547, and spreadH6566 abroad his handsH3709 unto Jehovah: and the thunders and hailH1259 ceasedH2308, and the rainH4306 was not pouredH5413 upon the earthH776. 34And when PharaohH6547 sawH7200 that the rainH4306 and the hailH1259 and the thunders were ceasedH2308, he sinnedH2398 yet more, and hardened his heartH3820, he and his servantsH5650. 35And the heartH3820 of PharaohH6547 was hardened, and he did not let the children of IsraelH3478 goH7971, as Jehovah had spokenH1696 by MosesH4872.
