Exodus 9:13-26

13Then the LordH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872, “1RiseH7925 up earlyH7925 in the morningH1242 and standH3320 beforeH6440 PharaohH6547 and sayH559 to him, ‘ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068, the GodH430 of the HebrewsH5680, “2LetH7971 My peopleH5971 goH7971, that they may serveH5647 Me. 14For thisH2088 timeH6471 I will sendH7971 allH3605 My plaguesH4046 3on you and your servantsH5650 and your peopleH5971, soH5668 that 4you may knowH3045 that thereH369 is noH369 oneH369 likeH3644 Me in allH3605 the earthH776. 15For if by nowH6258 I had putH7971 forthH7971 My handH3027 and struckH5221 you and your peopleH5971 with pestilenceH1698, you would then have been cutH3582 offH3582 from the earthH776. 16But, indeedH199, 5for thisH2088 reasonH5668 I have allowed you to 6remainH5975, in orderH5668 to showH7200 you My powerH3581 and in orderH4616 to proclaimH5608 My nameH8034 through allH3605 the earthH776. 17StillH5750 you exaltH5549 yourself against My peopleH5971 7by not lettingH7971 them goH7971. 18BeholdH2009, about this timeH6256 tomorrowH4279, 8I will 9sendH4305 a veryH3966 heavyH3515 hailH1259, suchH834 as has not beenH1961 seen in EgyptH4714 from the dayH3117 it was foundedH3245 10untilH5704 nowH6258. 19NowH6258 therefore sendH7971, bringH5756 11your livestockH4735 and whateverH3605 H834 you have in the fieldH7704 to safetyH5756. 12EveryH3605 manH120 and beastH929 that is foundH4672 in the fieldH7704 and is not broughtH622 homeH1004, when the hailH1259 comesH3381 downH3381 on them, will dieH4191.”’” 20 13The oneH4480 among the servantsH5650 of PharaohH6547 who 14fearedH3372 the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 made his servantsH5650 and his livestockH4735 fleeH5127 into the housesH1004; 21but he whoH834 15paidH7760 noH3808 regardH7760 H3820 to the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 16leftH5800 his servantsH5650 and his livestockH4735 in the fieldH7704.

22Now the LordH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872, “StretchH5186 out your handH3027 towardH5921 the skyH8064, that 17 18hailH1259 may fallH1961 on allH3605 the landH776 of EgyptH4714, on manH120 and on beastH929 and on everyH3605 plantH6212 of the fieldH7704, throughout the landH776 of EgyptH4714.” 23MosesH4872 stretchedH5186 out his staffH4294 towardH5921 the skyH8064, and the LordH3068 19sentH5414 20thunderH6963 and 21hailH1259, and fireH784 ranH1980 down to the earthH776. And the LordH3068 rainedH4305 hailH1259 on the landH776 of EgyptH4714. 24So there was hailH1259, and fireH784 22flashingH3947 continually in the midstH8432 of the hailH1259, veryH3966 severeH3515, suchH834 as had not beenH1961 in allH3605 the landH776 of EgyptH4714 sinceH3975 it becameH1961 a nationH1471. 25 23The hailH1259 struckH5221 allH3605 that was in the fieldH7704 through allH3605 the landH776 of EgyptH4714, bothH4480 manH120 and beastH929; the hailH1259 also struckH5221 everyH3605 plantH6212 of the fieldH7704 and shatteredH7665 everyH3605 treeH6086 of the fieldH7704. 26 24OnlyH7534 in the landH776 of GoshenH1657, whereH834 H8033 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 were, there was noH3808 hailH1259.
