1	And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Go in unto Pharaoh, and thou hast spoken unto him, Thus said Jehovah, God of the Hebrews, Send My people away, and they serve me,	Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh and say to him, ‘Thus says the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, “Let my people go, that they may serve me.	Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and say to him, ‘This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: “Let my people go, so that they may worship me.”
2	for, if thou art refusing to send away, and art still keeping hold upon them,	For if you refuse to let them go and still hold them,	If you refuse to let them go and continue to hold them back,
3	lo, the hand of Jehovah is on thy cattle which are in the field, on horses, on asses, on camels, on herd, and on flock -- a pestilence very grievous.	behold, the hand of the LORD will fall with a very severe plague upon your livestock that are in the field, the horses, the donkeys, the camels, the herds, and the flocks.	the hand of the LORD will bring a terrible plague on your livestock in the field—on your horses, donkeys and camels and on your cattle, sheep and goats.
4	'And Jehovah hath separated between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt, and there doth not die a thing of all the sons of Israel's;	But the LORD will make a distinction between the livestock of Israel and the livestock of Egypt, so that nothing of all that belongs to the people of Israel shall die.”’”	But the LORD will make a distinction between the livestock of Israel and that of Egypt, so that no animal belonging to the Israelites will die.’”
5	and Jehovah setteth an appointed time, saying, To-morrow doth Jehovah do this thing in the land.'	And the LORD set a time, saying, “Tomorrow the LORD will do this thing in the land.”	The LORD set a time and said, “Tomorrow the LORD will do this in the land.”
6	And Jehovah doth this thing on the morrow, and all the cattle of Egypt die, and of the cattle of the sons of Israel not one hath died;	And the next day the LORD did this thing. All the livestock of the Egyptians died, but not one of the livestock of the people of Israel died.	And the next day the LORD did it: All the livestock of the Egyptians died, but not one animal belonging to the Israelites died.
7	and Pharaoh sendeth, and lo, not even one of the cattle of Israel hath died, and the heart of Pharaoh is hard, and he hath not sent the people away.	And Pharaoh sent, and behold, not one of the livestock of Israel was dead. But the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not let the people go.	Pharaoh investigated and found that not even one of the animals of the Israelites had died. Yet his heart was unyielding and he would not let the people go.
8	And Jehovah saith unto Moses and unto Aaron, 'Take to you the fulness of your hands of soot of a furnace, and Moses hath sprinkled it towards the heavens, before the eyes of Pharaoh,	And the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “Take handfuls of soot from the kiln, and let Moses throw them in the air in the sight of Pharaoh.	Then the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “Take handfuls of soot from a furnace and have Moses toss it into the air in the presence of Pharaoh.
9	and it hath become small dust over all the land of Egypt, and it hath become on man and on cattle a boil breaking forth with blains, in all the land of Egypt.'	It shall become fine dust over all the land of Egypt, and become boils breaking out in sores on man and beast throughout all the land of Egypt.”	It will become fine dust over the whole land of Egypt, and festering boils will break out on people and animals throughout the land.”
10	And they take the soot of the furnace, and stand before Pharaoh, and Moses sprinkleth it towards the heavens, and it is a boil with blains, breaking forth, on man and on beast;	So they took soot from the kiln and stood before Pharaoh. And Moses threw it in the air, and it became boils breaking out in sores on man and beast.	So they took soot from a furnace and stood before Pharaoh. Moses tossed it into the air, and festering boils broke out on people and animals.
11	and the scribes have not been able to stand before Moses, because of the boil, for the boil hath been on the scribes, and on all the Egyptians.	And the magicians could not stand before Moses because of the boils, for the boils came upon the magicians and upon all the Egyptians.	The magicians could not stand before Moses because of the boils that were on them and on all the Egyptians.
12	And Jehovah strengtheneth the heart of Pharaoh, and he hath not hearkened unto them, as Jehovah hath spoken unto Moses.	But the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he did not listen to them, as the LORD had spoken to Moses.	But the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart and he would not listen to Moses and Aaron, just as the LORD had said to Moses.
13	And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Rise early in the morning, and station thyself before Pharaoh, and thou hast said unto him, Thus said Jehovah, God of the Hebrews, Send My people away, and they serve Me,	Then the LORD said to Moses, “Rise up early in the morning and present yourself before Pharaoh and say to him, ‘Thus says the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, “Let my people go, that they may serve me.	Then the LORD said to Moses, “Get up early in the morning, confront Pharaoh and say to him, ‘This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: Let my people go, so that they may worship me,
14	for, at this time I am sending all My plagues unto thy heart, and on thy servants, and on thy people, so that thou knowest that there is none like Me in all the earth,	For this time I will send all my plagues on you yourself, and on your servants and your people, so that you may know that there is none like me in all the earth.	or this time I will send the full force of my plagues against you and against your officials and your people, so you may know that there is no one like me in all the earth.
15	for now I have put forth My hand, and I smite thee, and thy people, with pestilence, and thou art hidden from the earth.	For by now I could have put out my hand and struck you and your people with pestilence, and you would have been cut off from the earth.	For by now I could have stretched out my hand and struck you and your people with a plague that would have wiped you off the earth.
16	'And yet for this I have caused thee to stand, so as to show thee My power, and for the sake of declaring My Name in all the earth;	But for this purpose I have raised you up, to show you my power, so that my name may be proclaimed in all the earth.	But I have raised you up for this very purpose, that I might show you my power and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.
17	still thou art exalting thyself against My people -- so as not to send them away;	You are still exalting yourself against my people and will not let them go.	You still set yourself against my people and will not let them go.
18	lo, I am raining about this time to-morrow hail very grievous, such as hath not been in Egypt, even from the day of its being founded, even until now.	Behold, about this time tomorrow I will cause very heavy hail to fall, such as never has been in Egypt from the day it was founded until now.	Therefore, at this time tomorrow I will send the worst hailstorm that has ever fallen on Egypt, from the day it was founded till now.
19	'And, now, send, strengthen thy cattle and all that thou hast in the field; every man and beast which is found in the field, and is not gathered into the house -- come down on them hath the hail, and they have died.'	Now therefore send, get your livestock and all that you have in the field into safe shelter, for every man and beast that is in the field and is not brought home will die when the hail falls on them.”’”	Give an order now to bring your livestock and everything you have in the field to a place of shelter, because the hail will fall on every person and animal that has not been brought in and is still out in the field, and they will die.’”
20	He who is fearing the word of Jehovah among the servants of Pharaoh hath caused his servants and his cattle to flee unto the houses;	Then whoever feared the word of the LORD among the servants of Pharaoh hurried his slaves and his livestock into the houses,	Those officials of Pharaoh who feared the word of the LORD hurried to bring their slaves and their livestock inside.
21	and he who hath not set his heart unto the word of Jehovah leaveth his servants and his cattle in the field.	but whoever did not pay attention to the word of the LORD left his slaves and his livestock in the field.	But those who ignored the word of the LORD left their slaves and livestock in the field.
22	And Jehovah saith unto Moses, 'Stretch forth thy hand towards the heavens, and there is hail in all the land of Egypt, on man, and on beast, and on every herb of the field in the land of Egypt.'	Then the LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward heaven, so that there may be hail in all the land of Egypt, on man and beast and every plant of the field, in the land of Egypt.”	Then the LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the sky so that hail will fall all over Egypt—on people and animals and on everything growing in the fields of Egypt.”
23	And Moses stretcheth out his rod towards the heavens, and Jehovah hath given voices and hail, and fire goeth towards the earth, and Jehovah raineth hail on the land of Egypt,	Then Moses stretched out his staff toward heaven, and the LORD sent thunder and hail, and fire ran down to the earth. And the LORD rained hail upon the land of Egypt.	When Moses stretched out his staff toward the sky, the LORD sent thunder and hail, and lightning flashed down to the ground. So the LORD rained hail on the land of Egypt;
24	and there is hail, and fire catching itself in the midst of the hail, very grievous, such as hath not been in all the land of Egypt since it hath become a nation.	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.	hail fell and lightning flashed back and forth. It was the worst storm in all the land of Egypt since it had become a nation.
25	And the hail smiteth in all the land of Egypt all that is in the field, from man even unto beast, and every herb of the field hath the hail smitten, and every tree of the field it hath broken;	The hail struck down everything that was in the field in all the land of Egypt, both man and beast. And the hail struck down every plant of the field and broke every tree of the field.	Throughout Egypt hail struck everything in the fields—both people and animals; it beat down everything growing in the fields and stripped every tree.
26	only in the land of Goshen, where the sons of Israel are, there hath been no hail.	Only in the land of Goshen, where the people of Israel were, was there no hail.	The only place it did not hail was the land of Goshen, where the Israelites were.
27	And Pharaoh sendeth, and calleth for Moses and for Aaron, and saith unto them, 'I have sinned this time, Jehovah is the Righteous, and I and my people are the Wicked,	Then Pharaoh sent and called Moses and Aaron and said to them, “This time I have sinned; the LORD is in the right, and I and my people are in the wrong.	Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron. “This time I have sinned,” he said to them. “The LORD is in the right, and I and my people are in the wrong.
28	make ye supplication unto Jehovah, and plead that there be no voices of God and hail, and I send you away, and ye add not to remain.'	Plead 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.”	Pray to the LORD, for we have had enough thunder and hail. I will let you go; you don’t have to stay any longer.”
29	And Moses saith unto him, 'At my going out of the city, I spread my palms unto Jehovah -- the voices cease, and the hail is not any more, so that thou knowest that the earth is Jehovah's;	Moses said to him, “As soon as I have gone out of the city, I 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 the earth is the LORD’s.	Moses replied, “When I have gone out of the city, I will spread out my hands in prayer to the LORD. The thunder will stop and there will be no more hail, so you may know that the earth is the LORD’s.
30	but thou and thy servants -- I have known that ye are not yet afraid of the face of Jehovah God.'	But as for you and your servants, I know that you do not yet fear the LORD God.”	But I know that you and your officials still do not fear the LORD God.”
31	And the flax and the barley have been smitten, for the barley is budding, and the flax forming flowers,	(The flax and the barley were struck down, for the barley was in the ear and the flax was in bud.	(The flax and barley were destroyed, since the barley had headed and the flax was in bloom.
32	and the wheat and the rye have not been smitten, for they are late.	But the wheat and the emmer were not struck down, for they are late in coming up.)	The wheat and spelt, however, were not destroyed, because they ripen later.)
33	And Moses goeth out from Pharaoh, from the city, and spreadeth his hands unto Jehovah, and the voices and the hail cease, and rain hath not been poured out to the earth;	So Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh and stretched out his hands to the LORD, and the thunder and the hail ceased, and the rain no longer poured upon the earth.	Then Moses left Pharaoh and went out of the city. He spread out his hands toward the LORD; the thunder and hail stopped, and the rain no longer poured down on the land.
34	and Pharaoh seeth that the rain hath ceased, and the hail and the voices, and he continueth to sin, and hardeneth his heart, he and his servants;	But when Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the thunder had ceased, he sinned yet again and hardened his heart, he and his servants.	When Pharaoh saw that the rain and hail and thunder had stopped, he sinned again: He and his officials hardened their hearts.
35	and the heart of Pharaoh is strong, and he hath not sent the sons of Israel away, as Jehovah hath spoken by the hand of Moses.	So the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not let the people of Israel go, just as the LORD had spoken through Moses.	So Pharaoh’s heart was hard and he would not let the Israelites go, just as the LORD had said through Moses.
