8. The Lord said to Moses and to Aaron, “Take to you handfuls of ashes of the furnace, and let Moses sprinkle it towards the sky in the sight of Pharaoh.
9. It shall become small dust over all the land of Egypt, and shall be a boils and blisters breaking out 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 towards the sky; and it became boils and blisters breaking 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. The Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he didn’t listen to them, as the Lord had spoken to Moses.
13. The Lord said to Moses, “Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh, and tell him, ‘This is what the Lord, 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 no one like me in all the earth.
15. For now I would have stretched out 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. 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.”’”
