Exodus 9:13-35

13Then the LordH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872, “1RiseH7925 upH7925 earlyH7925 in the morningH1242 and standH3320 beforeH6440 PharaohH6547 and sayH559 to him, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068, the GodH430 of the HebrewsH5680 saysH559: “2LetH7971 My peopleH5971 goH7971, so that they may serveH5647 Me. 14For thisH2088 timeH6471 I am going to sendH7971 allH3605 My plaguesH4046 3on you and your servantsH5650 and your peopleH5971, soH5668 thatH5668 4you may knowH3045 that thereH369 isH369 noH369 oneH369 likeH3644 Me in allH3605 the earthH776. 15For had I nowH6258 putH7971 outH7971 My handH3027 and struckH5221 you and your peopleH5971 with plagueH1698, you would then have been eliminatedH3582 from the earthH776. 16But indeedH199, 5for thisH2088 reasonH5668 I have allowed you to 6remainH5975, in orderH5668 to showH7200 you My powerH3581 and inH4616 orderH4616 toH4616 proclaimH5608 My nameH8034 throughoutH3605 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. 19So nowH6258, sendH7971 word, bringH5756 11your livestockH4735 and whateverH3605H834 you have in the fieldH7704 toH5756 safetyH5756. 12EveryH3605 personH120 and animalH929 that is foundH4672 in the fieldH7704 and is not broughtH622 homeH1004, when the hailH1259 comesH3381 downH3381 on them, will dieH4191.”’” 2013Everyone amongH4480 the servantsH5650 of PharaohH6547 who 14fearedH3372 the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 hurriedH5127 toH5127 bringH5127 his servantsH5650 and his livestockH4735 intoH413 the housesH1004; 21but everyone whoH834 15did not payH7760 regardH3820 to the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 16leftH5800 his servantsH5650 and his livestockH4735 in the fieldH7704.

22Now the LordH3068 saidH559 to MosesH4872, “ReachH5186 outH5186 with your handH3027 towardH5921 the skyH8064, so that 1718hailH1259 may fallH1961 on allH3605 the landH776 of EgyptH4714, on every personH120 and animalH929, and on everyH3605 plantH6212 of the fieldH7704, throughout the landH776 of EgyptH4714.” 23So MosesH4872 reachedH5186 outH5186 with 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 flashingH3947 intermittentlyH3947 in the midstH8432 of the hailH1259, which was veryH3966 heavyH3515, suchH834 as had not occurredH1961 in allH3605 the landH776 of EgyptH4714 sinceH3975 it becameH1961 a nationH1471. 2522The hailH1259 struckH5221 everythingH3605 that was in the fieldH7704 through allH3605 the landH776 of EgyptH4714, from peopleH120 to animalsH929; the hailH1259 also struckH5221 everyH3605 plantH6212 of the fieldH7704, and shatteredH7665 everyH3605 treeH6086 of the fieldH7704. 2623OnlyH7534 in the landH776 of GoshenH1657, whereH834H8033 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 were, was there noH3808 hailH1259.

27Then PharaohH6547 2425sentH7971 for MosesH4872 and AaronH175, and saidH559 to them, “26I have sinnedH2398 thisH6471 timeH6471; the LordH3068 is the righteousH6662 oneH6662, and I and my peopleH5971 are the wickedH7563 onesH7563. 2827PleadH6279 with the LordH3068, for there has been enoughH7227 of God’sH430 28thunderH6963 and hailH1259; and 29I will letH7971 you goH7971, and you shall stayH5975 noH3808 longerH3254.” 29MosesH4872 saidH559 to him, “As soon as I goH3318 outH3318 of the cityH5892, I will 30spreadH6566 outH6566 my 31handsH3709 to the LordH3068; the 32thunderH6963 will ceaseH2308 and there will noH3808 longerH5750 be hailH1259, soH4616 thatH4616 you may knowH3045 that 33the earthH776 is the Lord’sH3068. 3034But as for you and your servantsH5650, I knowH3045 that 35you do not yetH2962 36fearH3372 37the LordH3068 GodH430.” 31(Now the flaxH6594 and the 38barleyH8184 were 39ruinedH5221, for the barleyH8184 was in the earH24 and the flaxH6594 was in budH1392. 32But the wheatH2406 and the speltH3698 were not 40ruinedH5221, for they ripen lateH648.) 3341So MosesH4872 leftH3318 the cityH5892 from his meeting with PharaohH6547, and spreadH6566 outH6566 his 42handsH3709 to the LordH3068; and the 43thunderH6963 and the hailH1259 stoppedH2308, and rainH4306 44noH3808 longer pouredH5413 on the earthH776. 34But when PharaohH6547 sawH7200 that the rainH4306 and the hailH1259 and the 45thunderH6963 had stoppedH2308, he sinnedH2398 againH3254 and 46hardenedH3513 his heartH3820, he and his servantsH5650. 35So Pharaoh’sH6547 heartH3820 was 47hardenedH2388, and he did not letH7971 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 goH7971, justH3512 asH3512 the 48LordH3068 had spokenH1696 throughH3027 MosesH4872.
