¹ And Jehovah said to Moses, Come to Pharaoh, and speak to him, Thus said Jehovah the God of the Hebrews, Let My people go, that they may serve Me.

² For if thou^◦ refuse to send· them ·away, and thou still hold· them ·firmly,

³ behold, the hand of Jehovah shall be on^◦ thy livestock which is in the field, on^◦ the horses, on^◦ the donkeys, on^◦ the camels, on^◦ the herd, and on^◦ the flock; a very heavy pestilence.

⁴ And Jehovah shall set·​·apart the livestock of Israel from the livestock of the Egyptians, and there shall· nothing ·die of all that belongs to the sons of Israel.

⁵ And Jehovah set an appointed·​·time, saying, Tomorrow Jehovah shall do this word in the land.

⁶ And Jehovah did this word on the morrow, and all the livestock of the Egyptians died; and of the livestock of the sons of Israel not one died.

⁷ And Pharaoh sent, and behold there was not so much as one of the livestock of Israel dead; and Pharaoh’s heart was made heavy, and he did not let the people go.

⁸ And Jehovah said to^▵ Moses and to^▵ Aaron, Take to you fistfuls^◦ of the soot of the furnace^◦, and let Moses sprinkle it toward the heavens to the eyes of Pharaoh.

⁹ And it shall become powdery dust over all the land of Egypt, and it shall be upon man, and upon the beast, an ulcer flourishing with boils in all the land of Egypt.

¹⁰ And they took the soot of the furnace^◦, and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses sprinkled it toward the heavens; and it became an ulcer with boils flourishing on^◦ man and on^◦ beast.

¹¹ And the magicians were· not ·able to stand before Moses because of the ulcer; for the ulcer was on^◦ the magicians and on^◦ all Egypt.

¹² And Jehovah made· the heart of Pharaoh ·firm, and he hearkened not to them, as^◦ Jehovah had spoken to Moses.

¹³ And Jehovah said to Moses, Get·​·up·​·early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh, and say to him, Thus said Jehovah the God of the Hebrews, Let My people go, that they may serve Me.

¹⁴ For this time^◦ I will send all My plagues^◦ to^▵ thy heart, and against^◦ thy servants, and against^◦ thy people; so·​·that^◦ thou mayest know that there is no·​·one like^▵ Me in all the earth.

¹⁵ For now I would put·​·forth^◦ My hand, and smite thee and thy people with pestilence, and thou wouldst be cut·​·off^▵ from the earth.

¹⁶ Nevertheless for the sake of this have I made thee to stand, so·​·that^◦ thou mayest see My power, and so·​·that My name may be recounted^◦ in all the earth.

¹⁷ As yet thou buildest· thyself ·up against My people, in thy not letting them go.

¹⁸ Behold, tomorrow about^◦ this time I will cause it to rain a very heavy hail, as^▵ has not been in Egypt from the day it was founded even^▵ until now.

¹⁹ And now send, muster·​·together thy livestock, and all that thou hast^◦ in the field; every man and beast, that shall·​·be·​·found in the field, and shall not be gathered to the house, and the hail shall come·​·down on them, and they shall·​·die.

²⁰ He that feared the word of Jehovah of the servants of Pharaoh, made his servants and his livestock flee to the houses.

²¹ And he that did not set his heart to the word of Jehovah, left his servants and his livestock in the field.

²² And Jehovah said to Moses, Stretch·​·out thy hand to^* the heavens, and there shall be hail in all the land of Egypt, on man, and on beast, and upon every herb of the field in the land of Egypt.

²³ And Moses stretched·​·out his rod to the heavens; and Jehovah gave voices and hail, and fire walked toward the land, and Jehovah made hail rain on the land of Egypt.

²⁴ And there was hail, and fire taking itself in the midst of the hail, very heavy, such as had not been like^▵ it in all the land of Egypt since’ it became a nation.

²⁵ And the hail smote in all the land of Egypt all that was in the field, from man and even·​·to beast, and the hail smote every herb of the field, and broke every tree of the field.

²⁶ Only in the land of Goshen, where the sons of Israel were, was there no hail.

²⁷ And Pharaoh sent, and called Moses and Aaron, and said to them, I have sinned this time; Jehovah is just, and I and my people are wicked.

²⁸ Supplicate ye to^▵ Jehovah, there has been more than enough voices of God and hail; and I will send· you ·away, and you shall not still^◦ stand.

²⁹ And Moses said to him, As I go out of the city, I will spread my palms to Jehovah; and the voices shall stop, and there shall be no more hail; that thou mayest·​·know that the earth is Jehovah’s.

³⁰ And thou and thy servants, I know that you will not yet fear the face of Jehovah God.

³¹ And the flax and the barley were smitten; for the barley was a maturing·​·ear, and the flax was a stalk.

³² And the wheat and the spelt were not smitten, for they were hidden.

³³ And Moses went·​·out of the city from with Pharaoh, and spread his palms to Jehovah; and the voices and the hail stopped and the rain poured· not ·out toward the earth.

³⁴ And Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the voices had stopped, and he sinned yet more, and made heavy his heart, he and his servants.

³⁵ And the heart of Pharaoh was made·​·firm, and he did not send· the sons of Israel ·away; as^◦ Jehovah had spoken by the hand of Moses.

¹ Then Yahweh said to Moses, "Go in to Pharaoh, and tell him, 'This is what Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, says: "Let my people Go, that they may serve me.

² For if you refuse to let them go, and hold them still,

³ behold, the hand of Yahweh is on your livestock which are in the field, on the horses, on the donkeys, on the camels, on the herds, and on the flocks with a very grievous pestilence.

⁴ Yahweh will make a distinction between the livestock of Israel and the livestock of Egypt; and nothing shall die of all that belongs to the children of Israel."'"

⁵ Yahweh appointed a set time, saying, "Tomorrow Yahweh shall do this thing in the land."

⁶ Yahweh did that thing on the next day; and all the livestock of Egypt died, but of the livestock of the children of Israel, not one died.

⁷ Pharaoh sent, and, behold, there was not so much as one of the livestock of the Israelites dead. But the heart of Pharaoh was stubborn, and he didn't let the people go.

⁸ Yahweh said to Moses and to Aaron, "Take to you handfuls of ashes of the furnace, and let Moses sprinkle it toward the sky in the sight of Pharaoh.

⁹ It shall become small dust over all the land of Egypt, and shall be a boil breaking forth with boils on man and on animal, throughout all the land of Egypt."

¹⁰ They took ashes of the furnace, and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses sprinkled it up toward the sky; and it became a boil breaking forth with boils on man and on animal.

¹¹ The magicians couldn't stand before Moses because of the boils; for the boils were on the magicians, and on all the Egyptians.

¹² Yahweh hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he didn't listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken to Moses.

¹³ Yahweh said to Moses, "Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh, and tell him, 'This is what Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, says: "Let my people go, that they may serve me.

¹⁴ For this time I will send all my plagues against your heart, against your officials, and against your people; that you may know that there is none like me in all the earth.

¹⁵ For now I would have put forth my hand, and struck you and your people with pestilence, and you would have been cut off from the earth;

¹⁶ but indeed for this cause I have made you stand: to show you my power, and that my name may be declared throughout all the earth;

¹⁷ as you still exalt yourself against my people, that you won't let them go.

¹⁸ Behold, tomorrow about this time I will cause it to rain a very grievous hail, such as has not been in Egypt since the day it was founded even until now.

¹⁹ Now therefore command that all of your livestock and all that you have in the field be brought into shelter. Every man and animal that is found in the field, and isn't brought home, the hail shall come down on them, and they shall die."'"

²⁰ Those who feared the word of Yahweh among the servants of Pharaoh made their servants and their livestock flee into the houses.

²¹ Whoever didn't respect the word of Yahweh left his servants and his livestock in the field.

²² Yahweh said to Moses, "Stretch forth your hand toward the sky, that there may be hail in all the land of Egypt, on man, and on animal, and on every herb of the field, throughout the land of Egypt."

²³ Moses stretched forth his rod toward the heavens, and Yahweh sent thunder, hail, and lightning flashed down to the earth. Yahweh rained hail on the land of Egypt.

²⁴ So there was very severe hail, and lightning mixed with the hail, such as had not been in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation.

²⁵ The hail struck throughout all the land of Egypt all that was in the field, both man and animal; and the hail struck every herb of the field, and broke every tree of the field.

²⁶ Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, there was no hail.

²⁷ Pharaoh sent, and called for Moses and Aaron, and said to them, "I have sinned this time. Yahweh is righteous, and I and my people are wicked.

²⁸ Pray to Yahweh; for there has been enough of mighty thunderings and hail. I will let you go, and you shall stay no longer."

²⁹ Moses said to him, "As soon as I have gone out of the city, I will spread abroad my hands to Yahweh. The thunders shall cease, neither shall there be any more hail; that you may know that the earth is Yahweh's.

³⁰ But as for you and your servants, I know that you don't yet fear Yahweh God."

³¹ The flax and the barley were struck, for the barley was in the ear, and the flax was in bloom.

³² But the wheat and the spelt were not struck, for they had not grown up.

³³ Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh, and spread abroad his hands to Yahweh; and the thunders and hail ceased, and the rain was not poured on the earth.

³⁴ When Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the thunders were ceased, he sinned yet more, and hardened his heart, he and his servants.

³⁵ The heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he didn't let the children of Israel go, just as Yahweh had spoken through Moses.
