Exodus 9:23-34

23 Then Moses stretched out his staff toward heaven, and the ^aLord sent thunder and hail, and fire ran down to the earth. And the Lord rained hail upon the land of Egypt. 24 There was hail and fire flashing continually in the midst of the hail, very heavy hail, such as had never been in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation. 25 The hail struck down everything that was in the field in all the land of Egypt, both man and beast. And the hail ^bstruck down every plant of the field and broke every tree of the field. 26 ^cOnly in the land of Goshen, where the people of Israel were, was there no hail.

27 Then Pharaoh sent and called Moses and Aaron and said to them, “This time ^dI have sinned; the ^eLord is in the right, and I and my people are in the wrong. 28 ^fPlead with the Lord, for there has been enough of God’s thunder 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, ^gI will stretch out my hands to the Lord. The thunder will cease, and there will be no more hail, so that you may know that ^hthe earth is the Lord’s. 30 But as for you and your servants, ⁱI know that you do not yet fear the Lord God.” 31 (The flax and the barley were struck down, for the barley was in the ear and the flax was in bud. 32 But the wheat and the emmer ^{▼▼A type of wheat} were not struck down, for they are late in coming up.) 33 So Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh and ^kstretched out his hands to the Lord, and the thunder and the hail ceased, and the rain no longer poured upon the earth. 34 But when Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the thunder had ceased, he sinned yet again and ^lhardened his heart, ^mhe and his servants.
