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. because 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 Lord’s word amongst the servants of Pharaoh made their servants and their livestock flee into the houses.
21. Whoever didn’t respect the Lord’s word left his servants and his livestock in the field.
