*
Behold ,
tomorrow about this time I will cause very heavy hail to fall ,
such as never has been in Egypt from the day it was founded until now .
*
Now therefore send ,
get your cattle and all that you have in the field into safe shelter ;
for the hail shall come down upon every man and beast that is in the field and is not brought home ,
and they shall die ."'"
*
Then he who feared the word of the LORD among the servants of Pharaoh made his slaves and his cattle flee into the houses ;
*
but he who did not regard the word of the LORD left his slaves and his cattle in the field .
*
And the LORD said to Moses , "
Stretch forth your hand toward heaven ,
that there may be hail in all the land of Egypt ,
upon man and beast and every plant of the field ,
throughout the land of Egypt ."
*
Then Moses stretched forth his rod toward heaven ;
and the LORD sent thunder and hail ,
and fire ran down to the earth .
And the LORD rained hail upon the land of Egypt ;
*
there was hail ,
and fire flashing continually in the midst of the hail ,
very heavy hail ,
such as had never been in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation .
*
The hail struck down everything that was in the field throughout all the land of Egypt ,
both man and beast ;
and the hail struck down every plant of the field ,
and shattered every tree of the field .
*
Only in the land of Goshen ,
where the people of Israel were ,
there was no hail .
*
Then Pharaoh sent ,
and called Moses and Aaron ,
and said to them , "
I have sinned this time ;
the LORD is in the right ,
and I and my people are in the wrong .
*
Entreat the LORD ;
for there has been enough of this thunder and hail ;
I will let you go ,
and you shall stay no longer ."
*
Moses said to him , "
As soon as I have gone out of the city ,
I will stretch out my hands to the LORD ;
the thunder will cease ,
and there will be no more hail ,
that you may know that the earth is the LORD '
