21. But he that failed to regard the word of the Lord left his servants and his livestock in the field.
22. So the Lord said to Moses, “Stretch forth your hand toward the heavens, so that there may be hail in all the land of Egypt, upon man and beast, and upon every herb of the field, throughout the land of Egypt.”
23. Moses stretched forth his rod toward the heavens, and the Lord sent thunder and hail, and fire ran along upon the ground. So the Lord rained hail upon the land of Egypt.
24. So there was hail, and fire mingled with the hail. It was so severe that there had been none like it in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation.
25. The hail struck all the land of Egypt, all that was in the field, both man and beast, 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, was there no hail.
27. Then Pharaoh sent and called for Moses and Aaron, and said to them, “I have sinned this time. The Lord is righteous, and I and my people are wicked.
28. Entreat the Lord, for there has been enough of God’s mighty thunder and hail, and I will let you go, and you shall stay no longer.”
29. Moses said to him, “As soon as I am gone out of the city, I will spread out my hands to the Lord. The thunder shall cease, and there shall no longer be any more hail, so that you may know that the earth is the Lord’s.
30. But as for you and your servants, I know that you will not yet fear the Lord God.”
31. Now the flax and the barley were struck, for the barley was in the ear, and the flax was in bud.
32. But the wheat and the spelt were not struck, for they grow up later.
33. So Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh and spread out his hands to the Lord, and the thunders and hail ceased, and the rain was no longer poured upon the earth.
34. However, 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 hardened, and he would not let the children of Israel go, just as the Lord had spoken by Moses.
