28. Pray to the Lord, because we've had enough thunder and hail. I'll let you and your people go. You don't have to stay here any longer."
29. Moses replied, "When I've left the city, I'll lift up my hands and pray to the Lord. The thunder will stop. There won't be any more hail. Then you will know that the earth belongs to the Lord.
30. But I know that you and your officials still don't have any respect for the Lord God."

33. Then Moses left Pharaoh and went out of the city. He lifted up his hands and prayed to the Lord. The thunder and hail stopped. The rain didn't pour down on the land any longer.
34. Pharaoh saw that the rain, hail and thunder had stopped. So he sinned again. He and his officials made their hearts stubborn.
